Use it or lose it

“Use it or lose it,” an English expression which basically means if you don’t practice an ability, you might forget it. I always tell this expression to my students at MEF. Guys, this idea can help you remember new English vocabulary. The best way to remember a new word is to use it right away so it will stay in your memory.  When you learn a new word, try to say it in sentences a few times over the next week and you’ll not forget it.

If they win, however, the entire word will be spelled out on the board. Undoubtedly this is a great way of practicing English and getting the class involved. 2....

2nd January 2016, nice moment with Borneo Backpacker Community. We arranged this activity together. I made the tent. Yeah.. I did it by myself, guys. (My DIY project (Do it Yourself). I was asked to be the facilitator for the game. We played Crazy & Dare Question. I gave everyone a piece of paper and a pen. They must write a crazy and funny question. After writing the question, they must put the paper in a jar. After everyone finished writing, we were ready for Crazy & Dare Question. There were many crazy questions and everyone must be dare to answer and to do the instruction.
