English Lesson Story #9

After the semester exam we still have to continue the meeting. This time meeting should be part of my group for presentation. But since I have to work nights and can not join my group, then I take a morning class. In the morning class is Alma's group turn for presentation. They discuss about the story of civil engineering.

Their presentation went smoothly but at the time of corrected it turns out their article is not in accordance with the provisions which should be used articles must be native English, not even Indonesian articles translated into English. Mrs. Rella asks them to rediscover the correct article and re-present it.

After the presentation we were asked to look for some songs whose lyrics have questions about W + H, until this course ends.

English Lesson Story #7

This week there is no meeting, lecture or so called quiet week, because this week is used by Faculty of Informatics Engineering for midterm exam. Only a few lecturers use this week for meetings.

I am confused what I will write, because there is no story and no classroom meetings.

Actually not a quiet week but this week also used us to prepare for midterm exam next week. and lecturers who use this week just to give us a grid.

Mid Semester #8

November 22nd

This week is our schedule to take midterm exam. Exam questions are taken from the discussion that is held every week. The exam is supervised by a lecturer. This time our supervisor is Mr. zalzulifa, Mrs. Rella can not attend because of her umrah. When the exam is allowed to open the dictionary but not allowed to access the internet. The exam went well. Many of us can do exam questions quickly, maybe because they already understand the test questions or maybe they are lazy to linger in class. ☺

But I think they are all quite familiar with the proven question when our exam results are all pretty good and only a few score under "Enough".

English Lesson Story #6

Meeting this time I take morning class. Not much different from the night class, today's presentation from the third group. The equipment is complete, but group members do not exist yet. one of our friends said if all the members of the third group went to the night class. the presentation was postponed because no group emerged, and because the other group did not have enough preparation.

So Mrs. Rella concluded to give UTS grids rather than wasting time. He gives some sample questions. Examples of questions given not far from the presentation material. In the question, there is a sentence we must analyze: verbal / nominal sentences, tenses used, ask questions with W + H and change active sentences to passive or vice versa.

In some questions, Mrs. Rella will provide A for students who want to progress and provide answers to those questions. some of us answered the question and got an A. But this time I am not a lucky person ☹

English Lesson Story #5

We have prepared the equipment that will be used for presentation. today is the presentation of the second group. The second group consisting of: Ahmad Zahri, Rizki Faisal, Dicky Sofyan, Bagas and Putuhal. They presented a presentation entitled transportation engineering. Putuhal as moderator and the other as a speaker. Compared to last week's meeting, this week's presentation is better. the preparation of their material is quite good and complete. However, there are few parts to be fixed. the fifth meeting,

We have prepared the equipment to be used for presentation. Currently presentation of the second group. The second group consists of: Ahmad Zahri, Rizki Faisal, Dicky Sofyan, Bagas and Putuhal. They presented transportation techniques. Put as moderator and the other as a speaker.

After this group of presentations, we correct the shortcomings of this group. Compared to last week's meeting, this week's presentation is better. Preparation of their materials is quite good and complete. However, there are some parts that need to be fixed. such as, making 5W1H sentences and determining passive and active sentences. With these improvements, we know where the errors and how to create the article correctly.

Mrs. Rella reminded each group to improve their article before posting it to the blog.

English Lesson Story #4

The fourth meeting,

We started with a presentation from the first group. the first group consisting of, Cikal, Riyanto, Faisal, Gugus and Ika. The moderator is Cikal and the rest as a speaker. Before the group appeared, we were given a scoring paper. Each person from each group is obliged to provide an assessment to the group that appears. in the paper there are assessments of sound, language, gestures, eye contact, and material delivered.

We think the first group will be successful in the press, but they have obstacles in the material so they are considered not ready and must repeat the presentation after all the group perform.

Mrs. Rella said the first group as a lesson for other groups who will perform to prepare the material well. How to gestures and eye contact should be noted and good use of English in giving greetings and closures.

I often presentations and often become a moderator. However, the presentation in English made me nervous. Maybe that's what the first group felt.

English Lesson Story #3

Today we try to analyze an article. We were divided into 4 groups, each group consisting of 7 people. Article analiysis procedure: first, make a question line based on 5W1H from the statement contained in the article. Second, determine the type of sentence used. Third, provide a reason why to use that type of sentence. Fourth, identifying verbal and nominal sentence. Fifth, turn active sentence into passives. And the last, translate the article into Indonesian.

Mrs. Rella gave us 30 minutes to analyze the article, after which we discussed it together.

We are practicing analyzing this article for the preparation of group assignments. Because, next week we will begin to present the task of articles we have analyzed.

Good Luck J J

Last week we learned english, we have entered the learning phase. But Mr. Zul could not attend because he had other needs and was replaced by Mrs. Rella. Mr. Zul and Mrs. Rella is in one team. 

In the classroom we do not fully use English. But, Mrs. Rella suggested to us to get used to speak english.

Mrs. Rella asked us to create a blog. She explains the usefulness of the blog is as a diary. We have to make stories at every meeting and post them. the story will be judged and the task every week.

Mrs. Rella gave us Mr. Zul's blog address, www.zalzulifa.com

English Lesson Story #1

Two weeks ago, the first day we learned english. Guided by Mr. zalzulifa, M.Pd. and because it is still the first day, we have not entered the learning materials. we are still the introductory stage, and he asks us to introduce ourselves. however, we do not introduce ourselves but others who introduce. it's because Mr. Zul wants us to know each other better. we were asked to tell our name, address, date of birth, hobbies, family, education and the reasons why we choose civil engineering. Below is a profile of my friend that I introduce in front of class:

I keep this profile as a memory of her ☺☺
