Reflections on Issues in English 2 

Issues in English 2 is a learning software program for students who are studying English as a second language. There are four different levels that students can choose. They can also choose one of seven topics. Each topic consists of different activities such as listening, reading, writing, grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. I think it’s helpful for the students who want to improve their vocabulary and learning through the regular quizzes and the exercises.

Internet Safety 


Internet was transformed in our lives which can cause problems which effect our children, families and country and the world.  The internet can be dangerous or safe  at the same time if you are careful, the internet brings people that are 100's kilometres away closer to each other by one click. While on the other hand the internet also shows many problems such as our kids being exposed to horrible websites also sexual predators.
