Every day I learn something new from my students in
our private English
lessons, İngilizce
özel ders. This morning I met my student A. for an English speaking lesson at Namli Gurme Karakoy. We sit side by side on the wide wooden benches. The wide table surface gives us extra space to lay out the white board, papers, markers, and pens. He has many stories to tell me as he just returned from vacation.
Before he tells the story, I guide him to use new linking words such as:
We start to talk about how immigrants sometimes act the most patriotic to compensate for their recent arrival to the country. He teaches me the Turkish idiom kraldan çok kralcı or more king than a king to describe someone who acts proud or patriotic.
Before he tells the story, I guide him to use new linking words such as:
