and the best for the end : ME :)

First of all, I would like to say that I am happy to be in Sussex University. I feel appreciated by my classmates. I would like to thank Jennifer because she’s always helping us and she is very pedagogic.

I think that I have progressed in English especially my vocabulary. Indeed, at the beginning of the term, mine was really poor and now it’s starts to get better. I read articles in English and I often use the dictionary so I learned a lot of words that I’ve never heard before. My pronunciation improved because I try to participate as I can in class.

To continue to improve my level, I had to work hard at home, try to read more books (I’m starting Nelson Mandela’s) watch more movies in English (with subtitles).

I think that participate in class is the main key to improve my level .

Also, I can improve it outside the classroom with my housemates. They are really nice and I talk with them every night at home and we often do some activities together like seeing movies or cooking.

I also think that I can get better thanks to my housemates , they are native speakers and it's easier for me to improve my english accent . They are friendly and we occasionally do some activities outside the campus like playing soccer or going to a restaurant.

After telling you how I improved my English, I would like to share with you some pictures of Sussex University and Brighton in general. Some of them were taken by a friend of mine (he’s professional photographer) in Brighton city and others of Sussex campus: the bus that we take every day (25) , library, buildings... you can see them in the beginning of my post
