Today is the third day in the pre-sessional English Programme. But I didn't adapt to life in England. It's very different from China. People's thinking, the habit of writing, the way of life. The biggest problem is jet lag. And I find that the British don't sleep at noon, which makes me very unaccustomed. During these times, I learned a lot of knowledge that I never touch it,Tomas is the first tutor i had meet so maybe i will never forget him.To he honest , i so afraid that i can listen and understand what he said because my listing and reading are so terrible in the IELTS exam.But professor are so nice and i feel he deliberate speak lowly and clearly. i has study 3 different lesson.Academic skill and writing class and language class.I would want to re-view the Academic skill because it is so different than China.Such as we should use   'Academic style' in our study ,i feel curiously.I understand that this is a kind of English thinking, I think this is what I learn in the UK the most basic format with the requirements. I do not understand why the classification so meticulous, the use of some words is not enough "academic", This words can not be used, when writing format is also required. For example, 'can not' can not be abbreviated. In fact, now I do not understand what the rules of the positive benefits, but I must comply with the requirements of the professor.  in the lesson of Tomas, i should obey his rules. The writing class is more emphasis on the actual use of the teacher from the basic writing logic, starting from the TS, subject to explain. Feeling will be a completely different academic world, I am looking forward to.]]> 2017-10-05 06:36:18 UTC https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/194165701 384824617qq https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/194571390 Diary 2
em.................i forget this job. i will re-write all the diary.
oh, it a sadly day because i am loss my parcel that i write my name 'heqingguang',but others told me the correct writing is 'Qingguang He'.then the Amazon re-take my parcel................That 's interesting.the ridiculous is that the Amazion told me i should contact them but they do not provide any ways which include phone or e-mail for me.
just back to the study.Now the course makes me feel the pressure. Because I still difficult to convert from the Chinese mind. I am very worried about the 'academic skill' course. Because now learning is 'supporting sentence', I can clearly understand the role of this structure. But the teacher asked to be 'not general and special', and sometimes I think it is written for writing. As in China, keep training like machinery. But it does not matter I believe I will hold it, this is the purpose why i chocie to study in UK .And then the language class I also encountered a little trouble, because Tomas's course began to  explain the grammar. This is my most troublesome part of my English base is very poor, too much detail and grammar to learn. I am hard to understand the English grammar inside, for 'Finish, not collect' this as a logical point, using different tenses. Fortunately, afterwards, Tomas answered some questions for me. I am going to look at the Chinese website and look at the grammar. if my basic is worse,then i just need work more.]]> 2017-10-06 07:15:00 UTC https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/194571390 384824617qq https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/195078298 Diary 3
That's a nice day cause we have a new tutor-Simon,which is a outstanding an enthusiastic tutor.he had live in China many years!Taiwan ,Beijing,And he lived in Guangzhou,too.He said that foods in Guangzhou is very delicious, I am very happy eventhough  others student told me his measure is the most serious and many student failed by him.By the way Tomas explain the format of the mail now,  this is very interesting, but very boring. The interesting reason is that after coming to the UK, I found that the people who lives in UK would like to use e-mail to communicate and send message. With the domestic are very different. In fact, I think as long as you can maintain enough courtesy, but a formal e-mail has a lot of rules, I do not like .....
In fact, I found that the language course of the tutorial is scientific and reasonable. It is based on a lot of the most basic things, starting in different regions, and then complement each other. To build a completed side of the thinking mode, as well as daily writing habits.]]> 2017-10-09 02:33:22 UTC https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/195078298 384824617qq https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/195190014 The e-mail of sentence Practice

 There are the first day of the week,the writing class is a import part in it. At now,we have pass the process about sentence and structure,we begin to learn  cohesion and maybe learn essay in next week.About the Cohesion,it is a good way to simple the sturcture of the paragraph.Use this method such as "he,them,she,it"and so on.it can replace some noun in the structure let the sentence looks more clearly.On the other hand,This is a need to continue to practice to master the skills, because a large number of the use of alternative words, there may be encountered some grammatical mistakes. For example, the subject is chaotic. I am not proficient in mastering this technology, I am still groping the stage, but there is no doubt that this is one of the skills must be mastered. And I think in the future of learning and writing, this is one of the basic skills, I need a lot of use in all the writing paragraphs.]]> 2017-10-15 20:17:26 UTC https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/197156291 384824617qq https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/197160643 Diary 2
Today is not a good day cause i am sick.............
But i still get to the class because i do not want to miss the knowledge and i afraid tutor will fail me. Haha.
Back to the topic，Today, the main practice is mainly speaking, and not too much substantive content. I want to share some of my thoughts. In fact, I feel very confused, whether it is learning, or life. As Tomas mentor said, this is a culture shock. But I still did not recover. When I first came to know nothing about here, but I had to rely on their own to complete all the things, language barriers make me very hard. And then to class later, I can understand the mentor want to express the general meaning, the lack of a lot of words do not understand, so I am very troubled. Study abroad is helpless choice, but also must go through the road. I hope to get rid of their lazy bad habits, step by step, and finally to achieve the desired results. By myself and family member, i hope i can havve a nice result.]]> 2017-10-15 20:55:11 UTC https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/197160643 384824617qq https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/197160676 Diary 3
Body language is good and interest topic for the class. Today, tutor Thomas elaborated on some of the English language skills and use. For example, the "verb" + inf or ing represents the different meanings, and the verb + 'do do or doing'. For the fact that has occurred in the past, under normal circumstances will choose to use ing, and for that is about to do things, will be used to do this structure. At the same time, the Academic skill continues to train our writing thinking as well as logic, but now we have begun to move away from the initial stage. For example, in the Tomas tutor class, has begun to learn the knowledge before the integration together, the use of skimming, scanning method quickly take note, and then write the summary. In this way I still found some of their own shortcomings. For example, in the take note because it is easy to understand some language structure is easy to irritability, vocabulary and grammar is also a big problem. I will use some auxiliary memory word app to help me improve.On the other hand,i am so excite the language body class at the next week,i think it is so interesting.]]> 2017-10-15 20:55:26 UTC https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/197160676 384824617qq https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/198046890 Practice 5

This is the first time i show the presentation and face to classmate to speech..I am very excited, but I am also very worried. Because I have two members, they are girls. If my performance is poor, I am afraid that will be involved in their evaluation. Or have a basic sense of responsibility. And then came to power, I found my brain completely blank, the preparation of the previous night all forgotten. But there are some fragments of my memory. So I finished this presentation. Feel that their biggest problem is still nervous, and not enough confidence. On the podium I hesitated, still worried about the contents of the speech will not remember, will go wrong. This time to get some experience it To be prepared early, more prepared, so it is not prone to accidents.My fluency is not very good, the most important thing is in my speech, I do not have the concept of grammar. This is my instinct, and in Chinese English to elaborate some ideas. These are very bad.]]> 2017-10-23 06:46:51 UTC https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/199457738 384824617qq https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/199457792 Daily 1
   This is the first day of this week.
It 's bad luck today. I lost my student card. But it does not matter. Today in the language of the main lesson is how to do a good presentation. I need to pay attention to a lot of small details. First of all, this year is not to see the manuscript, I should be in front of a large number of contacts, the contents of the speech should be remembered in the mind. Fluency is a very important factor, because it will directly lead to whether the audience is still interested to listen to, because if a speaker has been knocked, then the audience will lose patience. In the course of the speech, my voice can be properly adjusted, the language must be clear and fluent, and I need to look around, with the audience to the appropriate eye contact. At the same time there are some appropriate physical movements, which can better explain my state, with the appropriate mobilization of the audience's emotions. You can try some of the humor, so that we become more relaxed. The last thing to note is to arrive at the scene early, respect the time, respect the specifications. At the end, the mind must be more confident in order to have a better play.

Today is more embarrassing, because the time between the time I went to buy coffee, resulting in Kristen's class late for 20 minutes. If Kristen teacher saw my pedlet, I would like to express my apology. In fact, today is still a bit depressed, because I found my vocabulary is not enough, can not keep up with the pace of the students, the teacher lectures, I can understand the meaning of the approximate, but there is no way to understand all the details. Because there are too many words I will not. And then in the Academic skill class, the teacher gave us a video of a lecture on YouTube. But I basically do not understand. It is said that we also need to pay notes on this video scene, and then write summary. I am very worried that I will not finish this task.

Today 's class, Thomas has made some summaries and feedback on my presentation. My voice is too fast, so the pronunciation is not clear. Then, in our group speech, I did not listen to the group members to explain, but has been looking down at the manuscript. This is a very bad point. So the next presentation, I have a lot of contact the day before, the contents are remembered. And then the content of the presentation in time, I do very simple, each page only a little bit of keywords. Although the Tomas tutor did not make a suggestion, but I think the next time I should add a little more content to go, you can make the whole PPT more vivid. At the same time their own speech, you can also look at the PPT, get more tips, so that their debris memory in series. And then is the more tense question, this state led me to speak when the comparison knock knock, sometimes the speed is too fast, resulting in the sentence out of the grammar and structure have some problems with the defect. I do not know why in front of everyone I will become very nervous to speak. In this time the presentation which I learned a lot, the next time I believe I can do better.]]> 2017-10-30 08:09:57 UTC https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/201618514 384824617qq https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/201618711 Daily 2
 Today reviewed the assignment 3 assignment. Found himself still have a lot of defects. Especially the thesis statement. The general evaluation is weakness, there is even a useless thesis. This shows that I have a big problem in this section. Because as an essay, this is a very important part. In the Writting Class, we learned the Comparison Essays, do not know why, I like the style of writing style, may be similar to my logical thinking. There are two different comparison methods. Write out different argument arguments and provide support sentences that support them. And then the different situation for horizontal comparison. Finally, write a suggestion or prediction of the content. This is very similar to the Chinese writing papers, which I am more familiar with the writing logic, I feel very comfortable.In the end, my vocabulary is still not up, this is a very urgent thing. I am also very anxious, and now with the advance of the course, my pressure becomes bigger. There are more and more academic terms in the article, I am a bit difficult to understand.]]> 2017-10-30 08:10:51 UTC https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/201618711 384824617qq https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/201630290 2017-10-30 09:10:47 UTC https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/201630290 384824617qq https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/201630443 2017-10-30 09:11:37 UTC https://padlet.com/384824617qq/a478x496pq44/wish/201630443
