Topic sentence : One of my biggest weaknesses is that I am not organised. Support 1 : the reason for this Support 2 : how to solve this Concluding sentence : This is going to be quite difficult for me, but I am sure my life will be easier if I reach this goal. My aims in 2018 One of my biggest weaknesses is that I am not organised. I tend to be absent-minded and procrastinating is very usual in my life. My biggest aim in 2018 is to change this behaviour of mine. There are several problems that lead to my stressed lifestyle but the most important is that I cannot decide what is important and what is not. Being interested in many activities and people, and having to do a lot, I often find myself sitting at my table at 1 a.m. wondering how the time went by. I have to remind myself that it is okay to say no for an invitation or to keep some time for myself alone not studying but relaxing. This is going to be quite difficult for me, but I am sure my life will be easier if ...

My aims in 2018 Outline: - Intro - Spring semester - Work - Fall semester                 Talking about my aims or goals for 2018, I am not that kind of person who makes deadlines for every single thing. I think being stubborn with our bigger goals, is enough, it is useless to plan our whole method and the time of the process, because unexpected twists can change our way anytime. This is the reason why I always keep simple aims, which are hard to get ruined by the changing conditions and easy to achieve. The first of my aims for this year is successfully finishing the Spring-semester. Although this is maybe not a “big deal”, for me it is a nice chance to prove that I can come up to scratch. For the next is to find a job for the summer, something well-paid and exiting, at least challenging. In some case I like to prove my worth but only for myself and not the people around. My third aim is to get...

Point 1: Grammar and writing Point 2: Idioms and expressions Point 3: Literature Conclusion: The previous semester is needed to acquire basic skills, so we will become good teachers.

’’What I have learned at university in the last semester”            In the last semester I became very open-minded and curious by learning about many topics and subjects. I learned of some study skills, where I discovered  the basics of learning techniques, among others. A also met English Literature and its marvelous poems, dramas and short stories. The classical writers knew something that we do not know these days. I practiced English Grammar and English idioms. For this reason, my vocabulary improved and my communication skills developed. Besides that, I analyzed lots of literary works, and I perceived the way how I can define the genre of a piece of writing. I was entirely impressed by Classical Hungarian Literature and that was my favourite subject. These lectures and seminars were mostly about practice and lexical knowledge, but I have also learned about behavioral rules and moral values, and most of all about myself, which was the m...

Learn how the system works Conclusion: In the first semester of university a student has to learn how the system works. Once they have mastered that, the future will be a lot easier to cope with.                 My first semester of university was very difficult. If I could describe it with one word, it would be "survival". Besides the English and Hungarian literature knowledge, I learned how to prepare for an exam if i I have only one day or night in the worst case, which is by drinking the strongest coffee in the drink machine. and I also learned how to survive a week without sleeping. Students are pretty good   experts at procrastinating, but once you learn all-night long and drink coffee and energy drink to get your pap...

Cseh Szabina Outline What I have learned so far in university Topic : The first semester was about brushing up our previous knowledge. Point 1 : Grammar and writing Point 2 : Idioms and expressions Point 3 : Literature Conclusion : The previous semester is needed to acquire basic skills, so we will become good teachers. Paragraph What I have learned so far in university In my opinion, the first semester was about brushing up our knowledge and skills about the English language. We got reacquainted with the grammar rules and the tenses. We were taught about morphology, phonetics and phonology again, but this time not just in Hungarian, but English, too. The latter was a new experience for many of us, as in former English lessons we only learned basic grammar and new words and expressions. We relearned the importance of linking words, how to write a paragraph, and what topic sentences are. We learned many idioms and expressions, although if one reads many English...

Firstly, I want to get a driving licence because I started it a few years ago, but I had to move to Budapest and I ran out of time. I also have problems with my hearing – I am deaf in one ear –, thus I was scared to take the responsibility. It feels like I am ready now, but sometimes I still have difficulties to live with it. Secondly, I want to take a business and an IT language exam in English and I also want t...

On 11th September I was one of the many freshmen who entered this building for the first time, with fear, hope, and uncertainty about this new type of life.

Moreover, I would like to start learning Italian, because these two languages are quite close to each other and it might be easier to learn Italian after learning Spanish. Secondly, I would like to practice...
