Introductions:

This is the thread where you should tell me a little about yourself, past, present and future and also what you would like to see and do in the 10 hours of class English for this semester. Over to you...

Hi, i'm Martin BALQUET.
I was born in Niort and actually i live in Coulonges sur l'Autize ( a little village in 25 kilometers from Niort).
I don't have an apartment in Niort like many students here. I make the road every day.
My main hobby is the football, i love watch this sport at TV and play in my club or with my friends. I travelled a lot during my childhood, i went of numerous times in Spain, i went too in Portugal, England (London, Hastings and Brighton), Italia, Slovenia, Switzerland and Czech Republic.
I have really never worked in a company, only a mission of temporary work this summer.
I made 2 internships during my DUT GEA, the first one last year in a company of household electrical appliances during one month and the second this year in a Bank during two months.
I would like to work in the field of insurances, my professionnal project isn't very accomplished at the moment.
Given that we had problems with regard to our English courses during the previous two years
what prevented us from progressing in English. I would just like to find the taste to learn things and to progress in English again. Of course, i would like to work on themes as sport or cinema but it is not essential. I would really like to progress in oral understanding.

See you soon in courses,

Martin BALQUET

Hi, Mister COX

My name is Noëlie. I'm 20 years old and I was born in Angoulême and I live in Barbezieux.
I studied for two years in Niort and I obtained my DUT GEA. So it’s my third year on Niort with IRIAF training. I chose this training to orientate me to a Master, although this one, is not yet defined.

My passion is sport. Over the years I have participated in many sports and eventually focused on weight-training this year.

Concerning my English level, it’s the same for years, that is a level of schoolboy. I do not see any progress despite my investment. That's why I do not particularly like this subject.
