Recurrence (kumat based on translate.google.com)

I finally took an english course at EF. Unfortunately, I think I got wrong level, the lower one. Well, I really think that I'm too good too be in elementary class. I'm not boasting, but elementary is just too... Anyway, this is because the bule whom testing me on my replacement test day. That day I came to EF after class. I prepared nothing cause I'm not intending to have a replacement test. I'm just there to ask for information of available class. And when the receptionist (or admin? I don't know what are they exactly) ask me to do the replacement test, I do it, nothing to lose anyway, I thought. (ngerti maksudnya kagak?)

So I do the writing test. It's easy. I think I'd answer all of the question correctly. Even the bule said that my english is pretty good based on the result of the writing test. But when it comes to speaking test, I totally messed up! Having face to face with bule, suddenly I became nervous. I don't know what to say. My grammar was so awful. I feel like a villager (you know what it's mean) whom nervous to meet foreigners.

Well anyway, here I am at 2nd elementary class of EF. I can't imagine what if my brother know about this. Such a humiliation. I've been studying there for about a month, 8 meetings, and all they teach me is about the "S+to be+going to+v1+noun+adverb". Can you imagine that? I'm getting old day by day and all they taught me is just about the future tense! The class is like a real elementary! They had some games in every meeting instead of a serious course It is ok if I were on senior high school, but now I need something more serious, something to improve my english quickly, something that can help me read the english text book which is always makes me yawn for reading its tittle, and the most important thing is something that can help me improve my toefl, and EF didn't give those things. The worst part is that I've payed for a level, so I had to keep going there every Tuesday and Thursday night for three months ahead.

Note: my classmates don't even know what harvest, cemetery, slave, and other almost-common words. Don't they ever play harvestmoon or the sims?
Note in note: all of them speak english with Indonesian accent in class. Event the teacher whom not a bule sometimes speaks english in Indonesian way. Daah, I need someone to guide me and give me example how to speak in real english accent, not the one whom speaks the same accent with me. -__________-"


I know how terrible my english is. But I really don't have time to spend another 8 meetings just to learn about "to be going to" and play games to make a sentence with it. I want more.


Hopefully, none of my classmates read this blog. Amin
