All praise belongs to the true God Who combines in Himself all perfect attributes and Whose name is Allah

Here we are

Setting up the first workshop for EFL members

This thread is intended to be suitable for intermediate and upper students who want to develop their listening skills

I simply don't want to host this thread because I'm good at listening, maybe the worst one even, but since I
want to progress and invite you to participate in a kind of pair work to increase our listening skills together

? Why not enjoy cooperating to developing our listening skills

So let's go further, and inject the sufficient fuel to our vehicles to last for a long time, working together on different listening sources
to one day, as it's sworn by me, enjoy having a strong listening in English

:The materials, chosen for this process of learning, including
formal speeches, formal conversations and probably slang terms

The scripts of syllabus are not even read by me, So make sure I will be the first one to make funny mistakes in listening
Don't hesitate to join us if you're too shy to make mistakes

[mohammad.clergyman]

this is mine:

Just 3 months ago at platform here is in Sotlex city, I asked the republic in party to leave the shroud of silence which has been dripped over the issue of HIV and AIDS. I have come tonight to bring our silence to an end. I bare a message of challenge, not self congratulation; I want your attention, not your applause. I would never have asked to be HIV positive, but I believe that in all things there is a purpose and I stand before you and before the nation gladly. The reality of AIDS is breathily clear; 200,000 are dead or dying. A million more are infected. World wide 40,000,000 60,000,000 or a hundred million infections will be counted in the coming few years. But the despite science and research white house meetings and congratunal hearings spite good intention and bold …. campaign slogans and hopeful promises. It is spited all epidemic which is wining tonight
