    All Ages Who was your favorite history teacher and why?

    I never liked history as a subject, and especially early history because it was somehow so uncertain to me. It looked like guessing and believing in some rare things we found. Like we decided to create it even though we were not so sure about anything. Nevertheless, my teacher in high school was...

    Has anyone enjoyed reading classic literature?

    Being a student of literature it basically means I have to read it but also I got here because I liked in first place. I really enjoy classical literature and not only English but Russian as well. If not more. Also in my country we have some greats of literature like Ivo Andric who actually won...

    Writing Poetry

    It is about expressing the feelings that would stay inside otherwise. Sometimes this is the only way to say something sounding meaningful and meaningless at the same time. My primary language is not English although I study English language and literature. Sometimes I write in English but it is...

    All Ages What do you think is the most useful instrument to learn?

    Piano is probably the most useful one although I prefer guitar. I am a recent learner and guitar playing is not so good but I manage my chords well enough. Piano playing can help you in playing keyboards, which is basically the same thing with a small difference that with good keyboard you can...

    All Ages Getting children interested in technology.

    Well, first of all, i really think that every parent should find what his kids like. I understand technology is important and it is something we cannot bypass with anything so it is good to learn as much as you can. If you find a way to make it interesting for a kid you will not have any...

    18+ [Higher Ed] How many computer subjects did you have in college?

    Well, as an English student i had none. I felt like that was unfair and more importantly not a very smart move from my university. On the other hand a had two subjects about usage of computers in my high school. I was attending a high school for civil engineering so it was useful for a job that...

    All Ages Can music classes improve my voice?

    Music class is a bit general for me. If you learn about music it can give you a set of rules of some knowledge about certain time. You will learn bout Beethowen and Mozart even singing but i am not so sure you do any singing at all, or just not enough of it. What you need is singing lessons...

    Should students choose what they like to read in class?

    I believe so. When i was a student we had a certain agenda considering the novel. I don't think students should have freedom to pick just some book because it would be almost impossible to mark all those analysis and essays. I think there should be a pole before each semester and student should...

    A hard one again. I would start with Orwell and 1984. A visionary of its own. No need to say i was thrilled with his metaphors and analogies. The concept of somebody watching all the time is now days i common thing and a notion that is a trend in some countries. The great Expectations by Charles...

    Actual or Online Books?

    I prefer the real thing. When i say real i mean with pages and smell and everything that goes with it. Somehow i am not able to focus when i read online. It is beyond me why but for the same amount of time while reading a hard copy of a book a can read two or three times more. And i really like...

    I couldn't pick one particular but several and i am not all of them were written by British writers. Crime and Punishment from Dostoyevsky is one of the best novels ever to be written. I am not going to talk about it just read it if you haven't done that already. Another one i really liked was...
