AWC Seminar 26/10/2017 - Some common language problems for Russian learners writing in English as a second language

The session is aimed at looking into language problems in the English Language for second language learners from the perspective of a native speaker.  We will visit the continuous and try to explain the perfect tense from the perspective of a British mind, lightly investigate syntax and what difference it makes in a sentence, get a sense of what happens when we translate one cultural style to another, try to have another look at those wonderful things called prepositions, and collocations, review articles and touch on the importance of speech and spelling. Be ready to work hard and have fun!
