News travel fast

Hello my dear readers. The latest news came in and I’d like to run a story about my visit to a wonderful place, to a candle of Ukrainian civilization, to Ostroh academy.

However, before I had started, let me tell you some pre – story. My husband and I had a lovely holiday at the west coast of France when the story broke. One day I decided to flick through the newspaper and saw that we have become an item of news. Frankly, I hate it. The scandal was the front-page headline in all the newspapers “A ROYAL KISS AND TELL. FAIRYTALE WEDDING AND A MESSY DIVORCE”. I was shocked, I’ve never thought about dumping William. Incidentally, dear journalists, thanks for such meteoric rise of our prominence. Thanks God, such scandal rumours  did not reach tabloids in Ostroh and become in the public eye.

So let’s move to my visit to Ostroh academy. It is needless to say, I’ve mat a wonderful people in a wonderful place. How can I be so sure? They didn’t met me like a celebrity. They didn’t told the history of their university up, as others usually do, embellishing the facts. I hate people who are economical with the truth, because It’s so difficult to sustain a phoney knowing the truth. It looks like a cheap foul play. In Ostroh, there were no uneasy questions that usually lead you into a tight corner. Thank you, guys , for comfortable cooperation. I’ve missed some interesting things that happened to me here. Because as I was told, “WHAT HAPPENS IN OSTROH, STAYES IN OSTROH”

Education

Education or How to turn mirrors into windows

     Having given a birth, new created family started dreaming about giving the best things for their baby.  One from such things is giving good education. They try to invest all savings in your school period and continue paying for your education in universities.  And what is the sake? They hope, that being straight A student graduated from university you will definitely reach the stars. Do You agree with this common opinion?

I watched two suggested videos and bumped into interesting thoughts about education. Sugata Mitra tells that schools used to produce people that would be a part of burocratik machine. They took young eager for knowledge people and made them identical to each other.

    Another his thought was that we mustn’t divide people with unusual intelligence and remarkable mental agility from another. All are unique and being bookworm or eager beaver, learning many materials by hurt and burning the midnight oil allow, people with different natural talents can sit their exams with flying colors and add themselves to Honor roll . The real problem to excel in studying is bed methods of teaching. We never hit the books or even crack a book when we hate our teacher or lesson at all. It leads to skipping the lessons or worse, dropping out of a course. For such pupils studying is only goofing off. The background of such abhorrence is punishment. Sugata Mitra agrees with neuroscientists, which proves that when we are threatened, the central part in our brains is blocked. How can we study? Of course, we fall behind with studying.

    The author of second video, Ken Robinson, suggests another solution. He tells that real education have to pay equal attention to Art, Humanities, and Physical education.

You can make your own consequences, but when we don’t change methods of education in our country, I’d want you to remember such as easy as ABS things:

• -         Don’t make your child be a copycat of his successful classmate
• -          Some things come with practice
• -         Life lesson always gives a crash course to catch up with sth  you’ve missed at school
• -         Good marks don’t show that knowledge covers a lot of ground

    Remember, that the best education is self – education. Change your mirrors into windows by your own! Keep studying ;)

Keep Extеnding Yourself

As every thing in our life has its pros and cons, drawbacks and benefits, it has its start and finish. And I won’t leap to conclusion when I say that our lessons of Vocabulary of modern has already finished. So I’d want to make brief summary and short generalization of thing that were achieved and some amusing moments were had.

Our lessons started in a hilarious way. We were painting about Ukraine. We hardly reached an agreement. But we were gobsmacked ,having seen the result. Let’s have a look.

So, we start to study hard. Our knowledge adds as quickly as fire spreads in forests. The fire of interest broke out in our minds and our entire fair and diffidence went up in flames. The main concern was in facing a prospect of having considerable difficulties while working. But “Practice makes perfect” and our classes can be a classic example of it.

All our classes were entirely different. Each time were learned something new. Now we can describe indescribable, and explain inexplicable ;)

If to be serious, there were a lot of new things for me while studying. Now I how to create word clouds, like this, It gives some indication of advancement.

I can interpret different people’s gestures even in combination. I can easily recognize flirting from showing interest and stubbornness from angriness. or something along those lines.

Now it is easier to work with computer. I distinguish virtual community and virtual reality, software and format.

The atmosphere during our classes was not uneasy. I am jubilant to have such a wonderful teacher. Moreover, she has never lost her temper even because of our appalled behavior and managed to bottle up her emotions not suppressing our feelings. I’d want to keep working with her.

To some up, I’d want to admit, that the best thing that can make you study is motivation. So, be dedicated to you work and let it inspire you.

Good luck!

Academy Day

I suspect everyone reading this column has experienced important events that resulted in their making personal emotional changes. For me such one was the last celebration of Academy Day. Being a kind of emotional people, I can’t bottle up my emotions. I’d rather wear my heart in my sleeve. So, let’s have a look at some photos. It’ll help you disclose more about me and my feelings about celebration.

I have been studying here for 2 years. As a matter of fact, It’s true, that I entered here coincidentally. At any rate, I have never been desperately unhappy studying here, even though I am grateful for people, I’ve found here. By the way, about photos. Here I am ;) And people that I love. We are together for 2 years. We look bright and cheerful, don’t we?

Now, as time went by, things are looking up. Academy helped to create closer bond with my friends. Of course, we have ups and downs – who doesn’t? But I am adamant they appreciate me, and the way things are now, I’m feeling totally overjoyed.

A few words about Academy Day. It was incredibly cute. It sounds too good to be true but nevertheless it was. There were fairs, selling different aroma sweets making my mouth water, a little concert and flashmob. As far as last one concerned, It will bear in mind for an years.

To make a generalization, days become unforgettable because of emotions you experience. Some things are indescribable and inexplicable. It is better to see once than tens to hear.

How much did you refuse your little brothers and sisters in their wishes? 1000 -odd, give or take Sth probably. But last time I didn't manage. My brother is a kind of as stubborn as a mule. He proved me to teach him riding a bike. So,somehow I agreed. Besides,he had substantial arguments, like " we are young once " or " better late than never" The most interesting began afterwards.

He was ecstatic,overjoyed. While riding, I became bored with his stupidity. He fell all the time, it was utter chaos. Brother was in tears.I lost my temper. Incidentally, the bike was mine. 

So I decided to rule this considerable difficulty with good old method:to buy sweets, provided that he wouldn't tell parents about our real efforts to reach an  agreement.

Coming back I found ugly lizard, laying on the road. I can't bottle up my emotions,unfortunately. I'd rather wear my heart on my sleeve. So, being replete with negatives I ran away.Having come back with a package of sweets, I found that there were no one at the street and my broken bike lying in the middle. I noticed only a blue car with folding roof.

Instincts made me feel uneasy. My heart told me that something might happen.I tried to suppress my feelings and went to my mother to repent. I accepted responsibility for this situation. Of course we had some ups and downs in relationships, but I appreciated him, at any rate.

Having come to mother she told that had wonderful new for me. I said the same,but with another mood and facial expression.She told, that our father had bought new blue car, without roof. And now he and my brother went to the shop OM to buy me new bike, as mine had been broken by Mark.

I've never been so jubilant as that day. Better safe than sorry- it can be an intermediate conclusion. But I've made one more: blood is thicker than water.
