Post 4. MY FAVOURITE LEARNING ENGLISH RESOURCE

I would like to tell you about my favourite resource for learning English. It’s called LinguaLeo. The link to it is https://lingualeo.com/ru/

LinguaLeo is an educational online platform offering an English learning service based on gamification methods.

I discovered this resource a long time ago when I only started to learn languages and I still find very enjoyable to use it for improving my skills. The website provides a huge number of materials and tasks for your learning and it covers all the aspects of the language - from grammar to lexis.

Improving your language with LinguaLeo isn’t just useful, but it’s also entertaining because the tasks aren’t ordinary. You can listen to the famous songs and and enlarge your vocabulary with the words from them. You can watch the episodes from your favourite movies and series. One of the options on the website I like the most is the opportunity to read interesting articles on many different topics - from nature to psychology. These texts also include a lot of new words to learn.

An important advantage of the website is that you can complete a test on vocabulary or on grammar and to check your progress. The better your English becomes, the more complicated tasks and texts you get.

I also love that you can use this educational platform on any device you need, no matter if it’s android, or IPhone, or a computer.

I would like to strongly recommend this website to everyone who learns English and wants to make his learning exciting and entertaining.

Post 3. ROOM 101

HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT WHAT THINGS IRRITATE YOU THE MOST IN YOUR LIFE? 

     I would like to introduce a short list of the things which drive me crazy when I meet them in my daily life, and if I could choose, I would definitely send them to the room where they could disappear.

1. First of all, the thing which sometimes makes me mad is the habit of the people to listen to the music in their headphones too laudly not caring about other people’s comfort or discomfort. Everyone has his own musical preferences, and it’s alright if one person loves rock music and another prefers classical one. I spend a lot of time in marshrutka number 35 from Monday to Friday, and it’s extremely annoying when after a long tough day I have to listen to somebody’s music instead of sitting in silence or sleeping on my way home.
2. Another thing that I really hate is when you’re in a hurry in the morning and you want to make a sandwich or just to eat some bread with butter, but when you try to spread the butter over the bread, you fail because the butter is too frozen, and it takes time for it to melt a little bit for you to be able to prepare your breakfast. 
3. And finally, I think everyone has met this problem in his life at least once. It always annoys me when i’m sitting in the cinema and watching an exciting film, but I can hear people from the nearby rows constantly talking, or chewing, or rustling with the packages from food. The main point in the cinema is the film - not food, not talkings. If you want to eat, you can go to the restaurant. If you want to have a conversation, you can also go to any other place. I’m a respecter of people’s comfort and private space, so I want people to respect mine as well.
