Welcome everyone. I'm Canadian but living in Scotland. The last time I studied anything was forty years ago … I'm a bit nervous! Good luck, everyone!

Hello. I'm so happy to be doing this course. I've finished two other online courses this year so I'm looking forward to my third. I'm from Vietnam by the way. Looking forward to meeting you all!

Tips
1. Keep your introduction short and clear.
2. Say hello and give a little bit of information about yourself. Don’t say anything too private or personal.
3. You can say what you hope to get or learn.
4. Wish people good luck.
5. You don’t have to write full sentences.
6. You might use more exclamation marks (!) than in formal writing because it looks friendly.
I like study online , because you dont need to waste time goind to a phisical place.
Personally, I don't like online courses, but they're still a good option, especially for people who don't like attending classes in person.
Hello everyone! I'm Thebet from Algeria ,I'm 25 years old.I'm looking for a partner to practise english skills online together especialy speaking. About the online courses, I like them because of meeting different people from different places but I still prefer Face to face cources.
I like studying online, because I can follow my own pace and rewind to every point I did not grasp.
What i like aboout studying online is that we could have new friends from across the world; different country or cities, it was also accesible and pretty flexible to learn anywhere
Hi! I'm from Colombia. It's my second time studying online. Nice to meet you and good luck with the course!
I can study from anywhere and enjoy a coffee while I am in class, without distrubing others
It is impossibe to drink coffie and to attend the class.
It's a great idea. It's very convenient, and I can study at my own pace and anywhere.
