The theme of today’s lesson is
1.responsibility
2.the difference American English and British English
English teacher taught me in the morning and evening. I thought She could not go to hospital yesterday and would go to hospital in the evening. But She did not need go to hospital because the good news that the patient of her acquaintance left the hospital came. She had enough time and began to teach me, then someone called her suddenly. It wasBe internationl company. While she talked with her, I took a rest. I made a coffee without sugar and milk. A few minutes later, She told me that a new student would come to Sri Lanka on next Monday and stay for a week. The new student was woman. Her job is creating picture books. She came to Sri Lanka to correct the materials about Sri Lanka. After her calling, she was busy. she coordinated her staying and thought who was well-qualified for her purpose. She decided Another English teacher because her house is in suburb of Colombo. There are many materials in Colombo. I heard her and thought her work was difficult. First, She must think what new students want to do and help it for their stay. Next She must find hostfamily who keep them kindly, friendly and responsibility. I heard that American, Australian, New Zealander and so on some host families keep foreigner students to earn money only. So they have no responsibility. When My friend went to New Zealand to study English, he and host mother did not talk with each other very much. When another my friend went to America to study English, host mother went out to work for long time. He and her child or he only stayed in her house. By the way, English teacher has the sense of responsibility for her work. Since I came to Sri Lanka, it took only about one month. I thought I was glad to meet her. Even so, Next new student would come to Sri Lanka suddenly.
In the evening lesson, I learned the difference British English and American English. I knew only that British English pronunciation is beautiful and there are some words that having same meaning but differing British English spell and American English spell. But in fact, Her lesson was beyond my imagination. When something is expressed, there are the different American English words and British English words completely. Example, gas and petrol. There are many such words in American English and British English. Then I thought American culture, movies, songs, science and so on, spreads in the world now and Many people know American English. but British English is not known very much. I told her this. She told me that she thought so.
