Learning by participating

  Sir Dr. Eak Prasad Duwadi  14 October, 2021, we had our first Legal English class, which was not virtual, after the end of one of our holidays. First few moments of the class : Sir and we, the students, had a little conversation at the very start of our class to recall if we remembered each other's face, to be precise, sir didn't because we never opened our cameras during our online classes. During the class :  Then, we had three activities in total. Alphabet wise : We were asked to form a queue according to our alphabets and were then, kept with different classmates. I thought this was the way sir was trying to make every one of us acquainted with each other at a deeper level by knowing each others' strengths and secrets. Drawing : Sir then asked us to draw a picture whereby we show the relationship between teacher and student. Me and Pranav, who was selected as my bench mate during the first activity, made a flowchart, showing how knowledge is bein...

Before Tihar and Chhath

Sir Dr. Eak Prasad Duwadi On October 31, we had our last Legal English class before Tihar and Chhath. First few moments of the class:  Class started as usual with Sir, involving all of us, talking about random things. During the class:  Three words and a sentence- This was the first and last exercise we did during the class. I made a sentence out of the word "proponent", whereby I mentioned COP26, the burning issue at this point. Afterward, I felt happy with my small effort to mention such an issue and was elated when heard Sir's feedback on my blogs.  Last moments of the class:  Sir, then, asked us to prepare our English presentations and ended our class with excitement and homework along with wishes for upcoming festivals. With the hope of learning more and faith in myself, tomorrow will be another adventure.  

After Dashain

  Sir Eak Prasad Duwadi   On October 25, we had our first Legal English class after Dashain.  First few moments of the class:  Dashain, this year was full of the village's greenery and healthy diet. Attending class after such relieving Dashain did not get boring as for balancing the fun and study part. Sir asked us how our holiday went and I thought about how much I enjoyed and missed the holiday. During the class:  Sir, then, taught us about English signs and symbols. The class was involved since so many of us were confused about the correct use of those signs. We learned about the importance of correct punctuation as well. Last moments of the class:  Sir ,  then, asked us to prepare our English presentations and ended our class with excitement and homework.   With the hope of learning more and faith in myself, tomorrow will be another adventure.        

Legal English

 Sir Eak Prasad Duwadi It is October 4, 2021, and the day for the third and probably last class of Legal English before Dasain. First few moments of the class:  Class started with the discussion of whether Legal English should be a difficult subject or not and everyone was giving input for the question. Finally, sir gave us an article to read from and form input for the question. During the class: Today we had an interesting class with discussions going on. Last moments of the class: I had a technical issue, connecting with Wi-Fi, therefore, I could not be present for the last part. I will be revising and reading the article for Legal English v Plain English to learn more on the question.  Reflecting on the class, I found myself indulged mostly. With the hope of learning more and faith in myself, tomorrow will be another adventure.
