[NOTICE]
Since I'm trying to contain the number of participants within no more than 10
due to the nature of this study group and limited seatings,
current members are fixed as below.
It means that even though you've had an interview a long time ago and joined a few times
doesn't automatically give you the green light to participate.
If you happen to be absent more than a month in a row,
please give me a notice and I won't count you out
otherwise I would assume you're not willing to attend anymore
so unoccupied seat will be passed to a new commer.
CURRENT MEMBERS are...
Tia, Jay, (Alyssa), (Sean), Andy, Kevin, Seokjun, (Sancho),
(Erin), (Hyoju), (Law), Simon, Gloria, (May), Alex, Alice, Rim, Lucy
Minutes of the meeting on 3/15
We had 5 English Talkaholics on 3/15, me, Jay, Gloria, Rim and Kevin.
I could be there only for 30 minutes, but I believe you guys had fun discussing all together, am I right? :) I've heard Kevin and Gloria tied in vocabulary test but glorious Gloria yielded collected money for the winner to Kevin who is younger and a student. What a generous girl! Kevin, Gloria, Jay had a lovely time in dos tacos for lunch. I am so sad that I missed all the fun!!
Thank you for coming guys, and see you everyone this coming Saturday!!

Interveiw is mandatory to participate.
If you're looking for an advanced level group,
If you're keen to study hard and improve your English skill,
If casual chats are no longer enough for you,
you'll be the right candidate.
We will expose you to english-environment as much as possible to meet your strong desire to speak in Engish by using ONLY English EVEN DURING the lunch time~~ :)
ONLY 2 RULES YOU HAVE TO ADHERE TO in the study
SPEAKING ONLY ENGLISH
Why we're defying the strong desire to sleep in
and struggling to come and study
is
to improve our English, isn't it?
Then I want you to have as many chances as possible to practice English!!
We're speaking in English even during the lunch time,
so please everybody stick to this policy!
BE PUNCTUAL
Due to the nature of the study, Punctuality matters.
The late arrival means you're intrupting others
which will lead us to using our precious time inefficiently.
Please, be on time. :)
If you happen to be late, please join during the break.
