T-t-t-travels... The Weekend That Was?


So, what did we get up to this weekend folks?

Singing, dancing, walking, talking - maybe even a spot of exploring?

Do tell!

Getting Frank About the Lingua Franca

While some languages are becoming extinct, other languages seem to be taking over the world! English is becoming the lingua franca through which people from all over the world communicate. Will English eventually replace all other languages? Is this dangerous or desirable? What do you think?

To York and Beyond

This weekend all our students are going to York! The city is famous for its amazing architecture, its mighty Minster, and of course, its sublime shopping! Locals say it is one of Europe's most inspiring cities. Let's see if our students agree...

MY EAC 2010

This two weeks at EAC are fantastic! The Campus is wonderful!!!!
My favourite part was Mr and Mrs EAC,it is very very funny, but my worst part was the Generation Game, it's too difficoult.
The staff are very nice!!! Liam and Dave are my favourite staff people.
The school is funny, my teachers, Bob and Helen B, are very good!.
The excursions are ok, my my favourites are the excursion in York and in Manchester.
The only bad thing is the food!! But the breakfast is fantastic, wonderful!!
In the others groups there are very nice people.
I hope I can return here a day!!!

Talent Show

Yesterday I went to the Talent Show and I enjoyed it because my friends were taking part in this Show. They were very good and funny but they came second but after the Show many friends have done a mini show more interesting and enjoing. After this activity the Italian people have said "Bye bye" to Roman people because they were going to leave at four o'clock in the same night. Yesterday night and now someo of the Italian people are very sad.

The talent show

Yesterday a lot of people participated in the talent show. Some danced and others sang.
Some staff there were the judges and they decided on the positions
The winer was the ballet dancer, but for us the best perfomance was 'La Macarena' tipical dancing spanish.

2010 Holiday in England, Hull

We have been here in the college for almost two weeks: the weather during the first one was sunny and quite good, despite of the second, during which we found it rainy and a bit bad.
So the English climate is colder than the Italian one and if you go to England it is better to bring with yourself a raincoat or an umbrella! ;)
Another difference between uk and our country is about the food : everybody knows that Italian cusine is always better than the English one.
Since we are here to learn English, let's talk about teachers and lessons, which have improved our knowledge in speaking and pronouncing English and help us to learn many new words and usefull expressions.
teachers and activity leaders were very sociable and kind and often we found them very funny and working with passion, [expecially Bob :-P]. they couldn't be better!!!
The college is full of green and it has an enormous garden on which we could sunbathe and play many sports.
We didn't like our accomodations because they were too small and maybe the furniture was too big compared to the dimensions of the rooms and our group was divided in two different blocks : we have to stay together if we wanna enjoy our holiday in Hull.
We enjoyed some of the activities, but not all of them: for example we liked the talent show and the disco, but we think it should be done twice a week; in any case we disliked the quiz-night and the casino' and perhaps we spent too much time playing sport and wandering in the college.
Our group leader's daugther won the talent show and two friends of ours came 2nd!!! <3... then we danced the macarena all together.
Finally we visited many towns and we found almost all the trips very interesting but they could be funnier if we would have more time to go shopping. 
To sum up this summer holiday was fantastic!! <3
