Reflection of my first week in ESOL class.

I am so grateful to be in ESOL class, where i can re-start my learning journey. Due to Covid-19 the class content a small group of 16 students. We have four teachers Anita, Poonam, Elizabeth, and Rohini. Each of them manages different units in our class.

In the first couple of days i found it quite confused and difficult with writing and grammar units. However, i slightly gains more confident up to the next following days. I was supported by the teachers duting a week. All the teachers are very much warm, patient, and supportive. I do appreciate it ! 

Because i am the only Vietnamese student in my class, that is why i have to speak English all the time whenever i would like to communicate with my class mates. So i take this advantage to practice my speaking skill. ESOL class is multi culture class that people have different backgrounds, but we joint together to learn and improve English. Everyone seem committed to study and very friendly.

It is a great feeling by fulfill with such positive energy in class. Thanks to all my teachers who is spending their time on program and sharing their knowledge to help us achieve our goals.
