Taking an English class during work is important for a education, because regardless of the major I chose, I must able to communicate well in written and spoken words. Therefore, increasing my knowledge and skills in English will increase my opportunities to success. Yet, currently, many students try to avoid taking English class due to the great amount of practice and dedication that requires. This, in the long run, decreases their abilities to analyze, express and critique ideas.
As a non english speaker, learning english gave me energy to improve my overall language. Because English is one of international language. Taking an english class is a great opportunity to me.
When I'm taking this class, there are so much experiences and knowledge to me. Like, I can understand and learn english properly, increase my language, speak in English fluently, do so many entertaining exercises and quizzes, and sooo many more.
The only problem that i faced is my struggle when i do a difficult exercise. That's a real struggle. It makes me have to think and think more to answer that. But that's a great experience to have.
I hope, when this pandemic is ended, we can learn english more and get into the spirit. Because only with perserverance, we can work our way up to the top. Keep going on!

My Dream House
Since I was a child, I had been dreaming to live in a house that would be a place of peace, joy, and inspiration. I don’t like the idea of living in a noisy city in an apartment in the block of flats.
My dream house should be situated outside the city, in a deserted place, somewhere in a wood near a lake surrounded by the wild beautiful nature, or it would be an amazing idea to live somewhere on an island like Hawaii with beautiful sandy beaches and a lot of sun. I adore nature and it would be so exciting to wake up early in the morning and listen to the birds singing. At least, my dream house should be located near a small river in the countryside where I could live in peace and harmony with serene nature.
My dream house should be of a simple design; I would like it to be a bungalow style house designed in basic colors that are appealing to the eyes. I would like to have a huge lawn in front of my house and enough parking for several cars. There should be a small garden planted with fruit trees, bushes and flowers. There should be a front porch where we could sit and relax and enjoy the beauty of nature. I would like to have a large backyard with a big swimming pool and a basketball court because I am fond of sports. In my backyard, there should be also enough space for having family picnics when the weather is fine. I prefer to spend a lot of time out of doors so an attractive outer design of my house and gardens is very important for me.
My dream house should be large and spacious with plenty of large windows that would make the rooms bright and airy. The interior design of my house should be carefully planned to every detail but I should confess that I prefer a minimalistic approach to the design of interior so I don’t like my ideal house to be stuffed with a lot of unnecessary furniture – instead, I would like to have enough space to feel free. Besides, I would like to have enough space for green plants and flowers that would create beauty and peace.
I would like to have a spacious hall and a large living room with comfortable sofas and armchairs and a large soft carpet on the floor. My kitchen should be small and neat because I am I am not really fond of cooking – I prefer to have meals in small restaurants, and I cook rarely. But my kitchen should be equipped with the latest cooking appliances and utensils. I would like to have a really huge refrigerator that could be filled with cool drinks and a freezer. My kitchen should be designed in a Scandinavian style with simple white walls and a floor. I would like to have a large wooden dining table.
I would like to have three bedrooms with attached bathrooms with a shower and a Jacuzzi. The bedrooms should be cozy with large beds and soft carpets on the floors. I would like to have a large TV set in my bedroom and a built-in closet. I am fond of reading, actually, I am a bookworm, so the library would be one of the most important rooms in my dream house. I would like to have shelves with books of my favorite writers that would line the walls from the floor to the ceiling. In the library, I prefer to have the latest desktop computer to surf the Internet.

IELTS Transport Homework from Ms. Nanik
Today's topic is Transport
Part 1: Style questions
Q: What is your favorite mode of transportation?
A: I love riding bicycle to go from one place to another. However, bicycle has it own limitations, and one cannot travel on it for long distances. Apart from bicycle, i prefer flights for longer distances.
Q: How much time do you spend travelling on a normal day?
A: I probably spend about an hour and a half travelling to and from work. I travel during the rush hours, so there is quite a lot of traffic.
Q: What do you do while you are travelling?
A: I usually listen to the radio or a CD. In the morning i like to listen to the news to find out what is happening in the world.
Q: Do you ever have a problems with transport?
A: Yes, as i said. I get stuck in the traffic on my way to and from work. I used to get annoyed by traffic jams, but now i'm used to them.
Part 2: Style Task
1. Describe your favorite means of transport?
you should say:
-What it is
-When and how often you use it
-Why you use it
-Why it is your favorite transport
People in this world use the means of transportation which are suitable for them. The previous mentioned means of transportation are used to travel within the country whereas the airplanes are used to travel from one county to another.
My favorite means of transportation is a car. I got this car when i was 19 years old. First i used to travel on a bus, but after getting the car my life got a lot of easier and felt that car was a necessity it rather than a luxury. First, i used to travel on a bus and I never reached my destination on this time. There was a day when i missed a bus and due to that I also missed my exam so i got a zero on my exam.
I think that the use of a car enables a person to reach on time and it also protects a person from bad weather. There are also some disadvantages attached to the use of car as it is very expensive to keep a car and a person also has to pay for the maintenance charges. Cars also create pollution and traffic congestion.
I still feel that the benefits of using a car outweigh the drawbacks and more and more people in this world are trying to get their own car.
Part 3: Style Questions
Q: Do you ever use public transport?
A: Well, i do use public transport when i need to travel to far off places and i don't have much time. Also, they are a better way of transportation when i am alone, as they tend to be safer.
Q: Do you like the public transport in your country?
A: I think apart from some faults here and there, the public transport is really good in my country. It is cheaper and tend to be more safe. There are lots of buses and vikrams, so one does not need to wait for a very long time for them. However, the buses and the vikrams tend to overload more people than can adjust in the bus, making them often prone to accidents. But with the strictness from the government in recent times, the situation has improved a lot.
Q: What is the differences between taking a bus and taking a train?
A: There is not much a difference when going for smaller distances, apart from the fact that trains tend to be more comfortable as one gets to sleep. With bus, one is stuck at one place and has to sit. However, in longer distances, trains tend to be faster as compared to bus.
