Project Idea


Last year Ukraine hosted a lot of football fans from different
countries. We hope people enjoyed our country, culture and
people. Sometimes our guests had problems because not too
many Ukrainian people could speak English well. Ukrainian
students and EFL teachers did volunteer work to help foreign
people in different situations.
As for our project idea we would like to know about the ways
people learn foreign languages and study at school in countries
abroad. We hope your opinions and suggestions will help us to
change this situation for better.

Our Opinions & Suggestions
Today, millions of people want to learn or improve
their English but it is difficult to find the best method.
Is it better to study in Britain or America or to study in
your own country?
The advantages of going to Britain seem obvious.
Firstly, you will be able to listen to the language all the
time you are in the country. You will be surrounded
completely by the language wherever you go. Another
advantage is that you have to speak the language if you
are with other people.
Staying at Home to Study
On the other hand, there are also advantages of staying at
home to study. You don’t have to make big changes to your life.
As well as this, it is also much cheaper than going to Britain but
it is never possible to achieve the results of living in the UK.
So, in conclusion, I think that if you have enough time and
money, the best choice is to spend some time in the UK.
As for most Ukrainian people, this is simply not possible.
The most important thing to do in this situation is to maximize
your opportunities: to speak only English in class and to try to
use English whenever possible outside the class.

rules…
Students from Belarus think we ought to read

take part in the international projects.
