Let me start with the phrase “I love English!” and this is certainly one of the reasons, I happened to join this course. Let me first give a brief overview of why I actually joined this course. One of the important reasons for joining this course is , I wanted to take up IELTS exam in the near future, but since I hadn’t taken up any English classes off late, I wanted to first join some advanced English course. Hence, my first choice was to join British Council. And, I’m one of the followers of YouTube Channel “Let’s Talk”, and I happened to watch, Hridhaan’s talk about Online Class and so, thought of giving it a try.
I compared both, since former one’s timing were not so feasible, I chose this one and I also felt that the contents to be quite interesting and exactly what I wanted to learn before turning up for IELTS coaching and exam. And, this is my first Online session with Video mode on, which I was initially uncomfortable, but honestly, the way classes were taken made me feel really comfortable and I thoroughly enjoyed the classes.
Speaking of my experience of the classes, yes, it certainly achieved my expectations. Though, I do speak English at work, I always had this lack of self-confidence to open up much and talk. And, again if I hear anybody speak a very fluent English, immediately, my level of confidence drops and I struggle to use words and talk. Honestly speaking, these sessions helped me to come out of my comfort zone to an extent, say a 40% and I really wish to become an eloquent speaker soon. Because, Communication is imperative and it’s importance gets louder as we move up the ladder. One good news is that, last week, I raised my voice and spoke against my manager on the timelines change on our work in the meeting. And, the response I got from others later were really impressive. My manager was impressed. And, I’d certainly credit the classes and the extemporary sessions we had (though, I’ve not mastered yet) and wish to in the near future.
