A Reflection note. Cherkasova Maria

This semester , and the year as a whole, passed very quickly. Academic writing taught me a lot. Now I know how to write well-organized essays and summaries of articles.

 I really like the idea of writing post. Now my works are available at any time and I can always re-read them. I'm also always interested in the thoughts of others, and it's great that we have the opportunity to read the works of groupmates. We found some websites devoted to some aspect of Writing in English such as http://www.citationmachine.net/ or https://bitly.com/ .

Before, I haven't read The Guardian. Now I know that there are a lot of interesting articles.


This class got me thinking of many issues, helped me express myself and get acquainted with thoughts of groupmates.

Since we live in the modern world, I think it is very important to be able to use and process information on the Internet, and this is exactly what some of our lessons were built on.

Because of this, I learned how to structure information and express my thoughts correctly in writing. As for the topics themselves, I really liked the themes that we discussed. They are ver...

A for-and-against essay. Torgalo Eliaveta

                                                Are ebooks so popular and good nowadays?                                                             With the development of digital technology, many physical elements, such as pen and paper, are gradually being replaced by computers and smartphones. But is it really good? Since the creation of "electronic readers" more and more people are turning to the technological side of reading.    One major advantage of e-books is portability.
