ammar1: Weekly reflection 2 →
I would have to agree with the student you talked to in the library. I personally learn better when I am engaged with the teacher and am able to ask questions when I do not understand something, or if I think the teacher has made a mistake ( those are the best ones, unless of course, your wrong ).

Yoon Chang :): Speaking Reflection HW Week 7 →
chrisj:
I agree with your friend, illegal immigration is a big problem facing this country. Mainly because they are taking advantage of health care and education here without paying the appropriate taxes as we all do.

Wedding in my country (Mali)
chrisj:
Hello, what country are you from? I find it interesting that the groom is allowed to see the bride in her wedding dress before the actual wedding ceremony. Here, its traditional to not let the groom see his bride in her dress until she is walking down the isle to get married. I am also wondering what you mean by “singer” women, and why you must spend alot of money because of...
