Please introduce your class.

Class 2-3
My class in GEO
camp is 2-3. There are fourteen students. Nine students are from Sung Sin
campus. They are seminarians. The rest of us are from Sung Sim campus. We take
the morning and afternoon class together. First time, I really felt awkward talking
with them. It has been 2 weeks already so I feel no more ice with them. During
the class, we have actually done activities to break the ice. Since we don’t
feel awkward with each other anymore, ice-breaking is no longer needed. For the
morning class, we first do an activity called “TFFT”. This is free talking
time. One person needs to speak for about 2minutes while another just listens.
After that, there is a retelling activity. We need to retell the story that we
read. With this, we can practice using follow-up questions and rejoinders. For
the afternoon class, we do textbook work and paper work that Johan prepares for
the class. I am really lucky to be in these classes because I have good friends
and professors, as well.
Among
classmates, my best friend is Jung Mun-yeong. He is 25 years old. His birthday
is on July 24. His hometown is Daegu. He studies in Sung Sim campus and majors
in mathematics. He likes to play tennis. He wants to be a foreign currency
dealer in the future. Mun-yeong is a very responsible and diligent man so
wherever he goes, I think he will be loved by others.
There
is one more person whom I think will be loved by others. Jason, the professor,
really knows how to break the ice. He makes people talk. I think this is a good
skill in order to get closer together. He also knows how to teach Korean
students. Most Korean students do not speak well during the class but Jason
encourages students to talk. He is a very active and enthusiastic person. I can
get energy from him during the class. One of the things I want to learn from
him is humor. He is a very humorous man. He makes people smile and laugh. I am
thankful to the GEO program for giving me the chance to meet such a nice
professor and classmates.
