Life
in Front School

I enrolled on the interpretation course
of Front School on the Internet. The first time I came
to Front School. I saw some papers on the wall with
some interesting signatures and leaving words. At that
time, I thought the atmosphere of this school must be
open and lively.
As for my interpretation course, a young lady teaches
us the interpretation skill in the morning. In the afternoon,
we join in the spoken English class, Simon's class,
to practice our oral English. On the first school day,
I felt a little worried and nervous. I thought that
to translate a sentence into another language immediately,
especially in oral, is a high good for me to get, I
was not sure that whether I can get some useful know
ledge here or not, whether I can do well in practicing
or not, and whether I can get along with my classmates
or not. However, after a week studying in school, I
don't hesitate to say I love the study life in Front
school and I am sure I will make great progress within
one-month learning.
My interpretation teacher, Caron, is a gook-looking
young lady. She is kindly, patient. She is always asking
us to interpret sentences or phrases one by one. In
that way. I can do more practice. She also has a lot
of experience in interpretation. So I can learn a lit
from her.
I have three classmates in the morning class. Because
the class is quite small, we soon got to know and be
friends with each other. They came from different cities,
and they are all friendly. Sometimes we discussed the
methods of learning English during the break, such as
how to string then listening comprehension and so on.
I can get some useful advice from their ideas, which
I think are the good methods to make my English learning
more effective.
In the afternoon class, I have another seventeen classmates.
Some of them are very interesting. But I don't know
all of them yet. My foreign teacher. Simon is a very
interesting and exciting British man. He loves football
very much, and he is always talking about it. The greatest
character of him is maybe the talent of playing. When
there was something interesting happened in our class,
Simon would act in some way to show his feeling. Sometimes
he cries, sometimes laughs, sometimes imitates what
the students have done or said, and sometimes-just stares
at you or does something incredible to show his going
crazy. I would like to say that he has a sense of humor
indeed. Every time he acted, we always couldn't help
laughing.
Simon sometimes mentioned Mike and called him New
Zealand Mike' for Mike is from Now Zealand. I had listened
to Mike only once. In that day, our interpretation teacher
cannot come to the class, so we joined in Mike's class.
Mike is kindly, lovely, gentle and good temperature.
He let us play various games in groups so that we had
more opportunities to express our ideas. At the end
of that class, Mike handed out a piece of paper with
lyrics on it. And he taught us to sing the song.
That was such wonderful moment when we sang the song
with the whole class together. Every day in Front school
is an exciting day. Front school looks like a big family.
Both teachers and personnel in here are all friendly
and interesting.
Although the furniture and equipment in the school
are simple, it doesn't hinder our English study. And
I am sure I will enjoy all the study life in the school
and learn lots from the teachers and other classmates.
