The Advanced Group's Reflections on the English Training

Ivy Brothers, David Presley, Máté Csernus, and Nimród Selmeczi taught the advanced group of students.  The advanced class was made up of students who have the ability to carry on short conversations and can begin to convey complex ideas in English. Many of these students, like some in the intermediate class, already have degrees from other universities. However, these degrees are not in English. This class practiced writing essays, working on phonics and pronunciation, spelling, reading out loud, and vocabulary meaning. They spent many hours in the classroom and many hours taking the practice test on the computer.

The teachers believe six are ready to take the English proficiency test and that five more will be ready by the end of the year. The students were very dedicated and eager to learn.

Enjoy what Allen, once of the advanced students, wrote about his three weeks of English training:

"These past weeks have helped me a lot in my English language in the following ways:
I have been able to learn how to pronounce English words and get proper spelling of some other words.  This was manifested in a way that I am now able to pronounce some words properly and with the proper accent.  I have also been able to know the meaning of ordinary words that I often used and actually didn't know their meanings.  Sincerely speaking, I am better than before we entered into the 3 weeks of English teachings.  However, I can't wait to give you the most beautiful activity that we did with our dearest teacher Ivy, which was describing the images that would be in the different photographs.  It was really amazing the fact that she and the other two teachers taught us how to describe them by using many examples for us to understand.  Sincerely speaking, I am now an expert in describing images in the photographs.  I thereby conclude by saying that this was so beneficial to me and my fellow learners, and the only wish I have is that the almighty God may bless my beloved teachers and I let that blessing flow to their families, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren."

Please pray with us for Allen and the rest of the students that they would pass their English proficiency test and they would be able to start their studies with MACU in January.
