My English Clinic Experience


I participated in English Clinic Activity with my friend Hyun-woo. My first English Clinic Teaching Assistant's (TA) was Keith. We talked about our majors. Keith’s major was Computer Programming We have the same major. He is a very good programmer. In my opinion, Hyun-woo and I are not good programmers yet. Keith taught programming to us. He is very kind and advised us about a programmer’s attitude. He said, "After you practice, you feel programming is easy.” We developed a positive attitude after our conversation with him.

After a few days, we met another TA. The TA’s name was Roselle. She is a pretty girl. We really wanted to talk to her. She facilitated the conversation. She encouraged Se Hyun-woo and I to talk to each other. Because we are in the same major, Computer Programming, we already knew each other. But we took that opportunity to know more information about one another. After our session, we thanked Roselle for the opportunity to converse with her.

Our English Clinic visits helps us hone our English speaking skills. I still have to attend two more English Clinic after the mid-term, I look forward to more great experiences during my next visits.
