LIBERTY: STUDENTS AND ACTIVITIES


           Well, before I start, I would like to describe how Liberty English Education Centre is. It is located on Merdeka Street in Dumai - Indonesia. It is an English course which has about 800 hundreds students devided into 10 levels. It has 50 classes differently in 9 classrooms. Regularly, we start our class at 7.30 - 11.00 a.m. and we continue at 1.30 - 06.00 p.m.
            In teaching, we've got seven subjects to be taught, they are: Grammar, Vocabulary, Translation/Writing, Listening, Reading Comprehension, Speaking and Mathematic. We sometimes give them watching and game also. Listening is devided into 2, Listening Comprehension and Listening to the songs.

Here are the activities of the students of Liberty,,when two visitors - Tobbias Tenenbaum and Paul Mare came
                                                                                                                                                                                                   
Elementary 2 A

Students were paying attention when Mr. Tobby answered their questions. They're a little bit shy to ask him but they're eager to do that.










Elementary 2 A
There,, Mr. Tobby,, He is a quiet guy,, I guess. He looked nervous the first time he introduced himself and
I think that's not a typical of American. He tried to tell them about his country - America - and his state - Alaska -. And look!! A woman who is sitting in front,, That's me.. Arrghh!! I am looked so fat. Actually I don't like this photo but yeah I want to display it here. :)






Elementary 1 G
This is Ms. Olvi's class,, Elementary 1 G.. Let me tell you some about Ms. Olvi. She was a new teacher at Liberty English Course,, She is always full of curiosity and spiritful. She said that she got stressed teaching the talkaktive students in Pre Intermediate C. Hahahahaha but I think it would be great for her.






Elementary 3 C

Now, check this one out! My noisy class. There are 30 students in this class. Normally, one class has only 20 students but with the big number of talkaktive students I sometimes can not make them quiet.. But honestly speaking,, they are good. Everytime we start our lesson they always insist me to give them speaking,, debate or game,, and when I asked them to take out their grammar book, they would sigh and said "Eeehhhhh miss,, Why must be grammar :"( "

'


Elementary 3 C

Look at their face,, serious and it only happened if there is a guest like Mr. Tobby or our principal comes to our class and I always said " Heeeiiiii,,,,, SHOW YOUR POKER FACE!!!!!!!"









Elementary 3 C

Don't believe their face. They've never been serious. They knew that their photograph would be taken. Hahahahahah.










This is pre elementary class. The students are about 9 - 12 years old. They are taught by Ms. Detta Sinaga. She has a strong character but don't be wrong,,, she is easy to cry,, a lil' bit sensitive,, hehehehehe,, I'm right, isn't it?

Elementary 1 A

And this, Mr.Syafrizal's class.Elementary 1 A. They are very active and they like to speak English as well. Since they have a good and funny teacher, they can express themselves in their ways.
Pre Elementary H





Elementary 3 A

One of Mr. Fadly's classes. Mr. Fadly also teaches in formal school. He is a good teacher and never want to miss practising English wherever he is.









Mr. Marnala's class. He is also a good teacher because he is a serious person and he always keeps on track to reach his target for his students and I think his students like him very much.









One of the activity in Liberty captured. Actually there were two classes there but we didn't join them. Just shared the balcony because they like studying there. One of the class was in reading class and another, mine, was in free spaking class. I have told you,, they prefer speking to grammar though sometimes it's hard to ask them to speak =,="

Elementary 1 F

Ms. Mira's class. They are so active that Ms. Mira doesn't know how to handle them. However they are good kids.
Pre Intermediate A










Upper Intermediate


Pre Intermediate A is one of high level also. Hopefully, they can prove their English ability in their society life.







And here is the highest level in Liberty, Upper Intermediate. Only a few students can survive 'till the end of level. Some teacher said that their English spoken is not too much different with Intermediate or even Pre Intermediate students but when they are graduated they will be ble to apply their capability. I do believe it.
And next to Mr. Tobby is our principal, Mr. Bell who runs this course.




Pre Intermediate
Pre Intermediate B. Most of them are active speaker but they are demanding,, they like to make their teacher -Ms. Detta- in stress,, hahahaha but you know what teens, your teacher loves and cares about you so much. She always has a great passion everytime she teaches you. I know it so well :)




Pre Elementary D










Pre Elementary D with Paul Mare,, he said that they were good to give more questions than other classes he entered to, but actually sir they just killed the time till the bell to avoid their punishment.



Primary 1



Pre Elementary D










Let's go to Primary! To be honest, teaching Primary 

levels make you expressive and creative,, Do not worry or play cool in the class 'cause they are easy to apply everything we teach better than other levels and they won't be shy or afraid to make a mistake 'cause they know that nobody's perfect :)


Mr. Paul looked happy when he knew that I'm left - handed like him and shook my hand for it. Hahahahahah. He also taught a bit about French and Spanish since he masters 4 languages: English, Japanese, Spanish and his mother - tongue, French.
Great Man!!!







I can't publish all of the photographs here though I want to but if I have time I will publish the photos of the other levels which haven't been published yet. Finally, I can share these photograph out and I hope you can see them.
Have a nice day,,,:)) Cheers!!!

Lenka - Heart Skips a beat

What a nice song!!! You ought to listen it,,,


Lenka - Heart Skips a beat



Heart skips a beat my heart skips a beat
My heart is playing tricks on me
And it’s building bricks on me
I can’t break through
And I can’t face you
My world is turning slowly now
But it’s burning up somehow
I need some time
To know what’s right
‘Cause it’s only in the quiet that I feel some relief
I’m trying hard not to resist the joy
Don’t listen to me I’m being paranoid
I might try hard but it’s too hard to avoid
My heart skips a beat
My heart skips a beat
My heart is always first to know
And as the feeling grows
I can’t deny push those thoughts aside
My world is full of loveliness
But I focus on the stress

My heart says “Go” but my brain says “No”
And it’s only in the quiet that I hear myself breathe
I’m trying hard not to resist the joy
Don’t listen to me I’m being paranoid
I might try hard but it’s too hard to avoid
My heart skips a beat
My heart skips a beat
My heart skips a beat
My heart skips a beat
Oh I know this time ’cause it’s physical
My blood has stopped and I am breathless as well
But I need a minute to convince myself
‘Cause it’s only in the quiet that I know what to feel

Simple Worksheet of Preposition of Place

JOBS - Matching English Printable Worksheet

Prepositions of Place: at, in, on

Prepositions can be used to show where something is located.
The prepositions at, on, and in

We use at to show a specific place or position.

For example:
Someone is at the door.
They are waiting at the bus stop.
I used to live at 51 Portland Street.

We use on to show position on a horizontal or vertical surface.

For example:
The cat sat on the mat.
The satellite dish is on the roof.

We also use on to show position on streets, roads, etc.

For example:
I used to live on Portland Street.

We use in to show that something is enclosed or surrounded.

For example:
The dog is in the garden.
She is in a taxi.
Put it in the box.

We also use in to show position within land-areas (towns, counties, states, countries, and continents).

For example:
I used to live in Nottingham.

In general, we use:
at for a POINT
in for an ENCLOSED SPACE
on for a SURFACE
   at                                                 in                                   on
POINT                                       ENCLOSED SPACE              SURFACE
 at the corner                           in the garden                     on the wall
 at the bus stop                        in London                          on the ceiling
 at the door                              in France                           on the door
 at the top of the page             in a box                             on the cover
 at the end of the road             in my pocket                     on the floor
 at the entrance                       in my wallet                       on the carpet
 at the crossroads                   in a building                        on the menu
 at the front desk                    in a car                              on a page


Look at these examples:
Jane is waiting for you at the bus stop.
The shop is at the end of the street.
My plane stopped at Dubai and Hanoi and arrived in Bangkok two hours late.
When will you arrive at the office?
Do you work in an office?
I have a meeting in New York.
Do you live in Japan?
Jupiter is in the Solar System.
The author’s name is on the cover of the book.
There are no prices on this menu.
You are standing on my foot.
There was a “no smoking” sign on the wall.
I live on the 7th floor at 21 Oxford Street in London.

Notice the use of the prepositions of place at, in and on in these standard expressions:
             at                   in                               on
  1. at home          in a car                      on a bus
  2. at work          in a taxi                      on a train
  3. at school        in a helicopter         on a plane
  4. at university    in a boat                 on a ship
  5. at college        in a lift (elevator)   on a bicycle, on a motorbike
  6. at the top        in the newspaper    on a horse, on an elephant
  7. at the bottom  in the sky               on the radio, on television
  8. at the side      in a row                     on the left, on the right
  9. at reception    in Oxford Street    on the way

Relative Pronouns

We use the relative pronouns to refer to a noun mentioned before and of which we are adding more information. They are used to join two or more sentences and forming in that way what we call “relative sentences“.

for example : I know the boy who lives there.

In this sentence what word does ‘who’ refer to?

It refers to the noun ‘boy’ which is just before it.

“Who” is called Relative Pronoun.

Where is it placed? – It is placed at the beginning of the clause ‘who lives there’. This clause tells us about the boy. It is an adjective clause.

“A Relative Pronoun is used to begin an adjective clause. It refers to the noun directly in front of it”

Read the sentences below:

1. The man who married that old lady is my uncle.

2. That is the house which is being auctioned.

3. The apples that she bought were rotten.

4. The met whom you met yesterday is here.

5. The lady whose bag was stolen has made a report to the police.

‘Who’, ‘which’, ‘that’, ‘whom’ and ‘whose’ are all relative pronouns.

These pronouns are used according to whether they refer to persons or things.

The pronouns that are used to refer to people are ‘who’, ‘whom’ and ‘whose’.

‘Whom’ is only used as the object of the sentence.

‘Whose’ is used as a possessive.

And pronouns refer to animals and things are ‘which’ and ‘that’.

Sample of worksheet

POSSESSIVE

I. POSSESSIVE ADJECTIVES

Definition: Possesive adjectives are used to show ownership or possession. The possessive adjectives are:

Subject pronoun Possessive adjective
I my
you your
he his
she her
it its
we our
they their

For example:
That’s my folder.
* ” My” is an adjective which shows that I am the owner of the folder.

Notes:
A possessive adjective is similar or identical to a possessive pronoun; however, it is used as an adjective and modifies a noun or a noun phrase.

For example:
I can’t complete my assignment because I don’t have the textbook.
* In this sentence, the possessive adjective “my” modifies the noun “assignment”.
What is your phone number?
* Here the possessive adjective “your” is used to modify the noun phrase “phone number”
The cat chased its ball down the stairs and into the backyard.
* In this sentence, the possessive adjective “its” modifies “ball”.

II. POSSESSIVE PRONOUNS

Definition: We use the Possessive Pronouns when we want to substitute a group of words that are indicating a possession relation.

Subject pronouns Possessive pronouns
I Mine
You Yours (singular)
He His
She Hers
It Its
We Ours
You Yours (plural)
They Theirs

For example:
This is my book.
* In this example, we can substitute “my book” for the possessive pronoun “mine”. => This is mine.

This is your disk and that’s mine.
* Mine substitutes the word disk and shows that it belongs to me.

A possessive pronoun indicates it is acting as a subject complement or a subject of the sentence.

For example:
The smallest gift is mine.
This is yours.
* Here the possessive pronouns acts as a subject complement.

His is on the kitchen counter.
Theirs will be delivered tomorrow.
Ours is the green one on the corner.
* Here the possessive pronoun acts as the subject of the sentence.

Note : Possessive pronouns are very similar to possessive adjectives.

For example:
You can borrow my book as long as you remember that it’s not yours.
=> The possessive “my” depends on the noun “book.”
=> The possessive “yours” is a pronoun which stands in the place of “your book”.

When you drive to Manitoba, will you take your car or theirs?
=> The possessive “your” depends on the noun “car.”
=> The possessive pronoun, “theirs,” stands in the place of the noun phrase, “their car.”

III. Possessive Nouns

Rule #1: Making singular nouns possessive. Add an apostrophe ( ‘ ) + s to most singular nouns and to plural nouns that do not end in s.

Examples:
Singular nouns: kitten’s toy, Joe’s car, MLB’s ruling
Plurals not ending in s: women’s dresses, sheep’s pasture, children’s toys


Rule #2: Making plural nouns possessive Add an apostrophe ( ‘ ) only to plural nouns that already end in s.

Examples:
Companies’ workers
Horses’ stalls
Countries’ armies


Rule #3: Making hyphenated nouns and compound nouns plural. Compound and hyphenated words can be tricky. Add the apostrophe + s to the end of the compound words or the last word in a hyphenated noun.
Examples:
My mother-in-law’s recipe for meatloaf is my husband’s favorite.
The United States Post Office’s stamps are available in roll or in packets.
Rule #4: Indicating possession when two nouns are joined together. You may be writing about two people or two places or things that share possession of an object. If two nouns share ownership, indicate possession only once, and on the second noun. Add the apostrophe + s to the second noun only.
Examples:
Jack and Jill’s pail of water features prominently in the nursery rhyme.
Abbot and Costello’s comedy skit “Who’s On First” is a classic act.

Rule #5: Indicating possession when two nouns are joined, and ownership is separate.This is the trickiest of all, but thankfully you’ll probably need this rule infrequently. When two nouns indicate ownership, but the ownership is separate, each noun gets the apostrophe + s. The examples below may help you understand exactly what this means.
Example:
Lucy’s and Ricky’s dressing rooms were painted pink and blue. (Each owns his or her own dressing room, and they are different rooms).
Senator Obama’s and Senator Clinton’s educations are outstanding. (Each senator owns his or her education, but they attained separate educations).

Homonyms - English Printable Worksheet

For homonyms in scientific nomenclature, see Homonym (biology). n linguistics, a homonym is, in the strict sense, one of a group of words that share the same spelling and the same pronunciation but have different meanings.[1] Thus homonyms are simultaneously homographs (words that share the same spelling, irrespective of their pronunciation) and homophones (words that share the same pronunciation, irrespective of their spelling). The state of being a homonym is called homonymy. Examples of homonyms are the pair stalk (part of a plant) and stalk (follow/harass a person) and the pair left (opposite of right) and left (past tense of leave). A distinction is sometimes made between “true” homonyms, which are unrelated in origin, such as skate(glide on ice) and skate (the fish), and polysemous homonyms, or polysemes, which have a shared origin, such as mouth (of a river) andmouth (of an animal).[2][3]
