از زمانی که شروع به یادگیری زبان انگلیسی کردم با گرامر مشکلات زیادی داشتم. چیزی که الان در مورد کلاسم بیشتر دوست دارم این است که در آن گرامر به روشی خلاقانه و متقاوت آموزش داده می‌شود. در واقع، این دوره نه تنها دانش من را بهبود بخشیده، بلکه آن را نیزسازماندهی کرده است. معمولاً شرکت در کلاس زبان انگلیسی خسته‌ام می کند، اما کلاس آقای عظیمی تشویقم می کند که ادامه بدهم و واقعاً از زحمات ایشان قدردانی می کنم.

The Tale of Bartelby O’Boyle
Long ago, there was a clever man by the name of Bartelby O’Boyle. As a boy, he was kept as a slave by the royal family. He saw other children play, but he always had to work. This frustrated him very much. But he was not stupid, and he wanted to change things. Continue reading The Tale of Bartelby O’Boyle
Flower and Butterfly
There was a man who asked god for a flower and a butterfly. But instead, God gave him a cactus and a caterpillar.
The man was sad. he didn’t understand why his request was mistaken. then he thought: oh well, God has too many people to care for. and decided not to question.
After some time, the man went to check up on his request that had left forgotten. to his surprise, from the thorny and ugly cactus, a beautiful flower had grown and the unsightly caterpillar had been transformed into the most beautiful butterfly.
God always does things right. his way is ALWAYS the best way, even if to us it seems all wrong. if you asked god for one thing and received another, TRUST. you can be sure that He will always give you what you need at the appropriate time.
Blackbeard
A long time ago, I had my first job. It didn’t give me much of an income. It was on a giant pirate ship. On my first night, there was a thick fog over the water. A lamp on the ship revealed an enormous man. He had a sword in his belt. His name was Blackbeard, and he was one of the most violent pirates ever.
One day, Blackbeard did an extraordinary thing. He attacked several ships near a town. He took some of the town’s citizens. Then he declared, “You give me medicine!” Blackbeard wanted the medicine for some of the sick pirates on his ship.
The people had a bad impression of him. They were mad, and they resisted. But they were trapped. They wanted to get rid of him. So the town council decided to give him the medicine.
After this, there was a reward for catching Blackbeard. If Blackbeard was caught, he would have a trial. He didn’t want to go to jail, so he quit being a pirate.
Blackbeard became a fisherman. But he ought to have stayed on land. The Royal Navy was still looking for him. They attacked him while he was fishing on his boat. Blackbeard fought against many men. Finally, he was killed. He didn’t even get a funeral. But people still tell tales about him many years later.

Samin
I’m Samin, a student of English. We are two in our class. I and dear Masoumeh. We study Headway books. Our teacher is Patient, kind and of course serious in his job. There are many interesting things in my class, e.g. some chairs, computers, books, bookcases and most interestingly a vase on a nostalgic stool that I love the most. Sometimes we drink tea or coffee and have sweets.
