Introduction
The aim of this proposal is to outline the covered topics of social issues that we had this term. It will also include subjects for future discussions.
Main social issue
The most important question that we have discussed this term was about the cons and pros of using technologies during the lesson. There were examples of positive influence of cell phones or laptops during the educational process, as students are more engaged in the process while doing exercises online or searching for information on the Internet. On the other hand, they might be distracted and use technologies for purposes other than intended during the lessons.
Conclusions
In the age dominated by technologies, it is highly unlikely to limit students in using them. It was reached to provide each class with laptops that would have a block system for social media and irrelevant for studying websites. Teaching staff consider that this method will help students to stay both motivated and concentrated on their learning objectives.
Class participation
The future looks concerning active participation during the lesson is promising. The teaching staff was renewed recently, there are a few young and enthusiastic teachers who can engage students into the learning process. Moreover, as shown in the results, the improvement has risen drastically.
Future meetings
In light of the results of the survey, I would strongly advise to discuss the problem of doing homework. As it was said, homework should help students to strengthen knowledge and polish skills that were obtained at the lesson. It is hardly possible to achieve good results without homework and the problem of skipping it is crucial.

I don't consider myself as a quick learner, who picks up vocabulary and grammar at a sitting because of it I prefer to delve into the language environment to the full extent rather than to lose sight of the goal while paying my attention to everything at once.
It's important for me to achieve a strong b2 level firstly ,as there is a bigger chance not to nip in the bud some seeds of knowledge.

On the other hand, some students usually expect fast results without any challenge. No cramming, no grammar, no tenses. In my view, everything depends on the goals. If they aren’t going to take any exams, linguistic questions don’t bother them and keep them up at night, maybe it’s time for a teacher to warn them about realistic perspectives that they aren't on a fast track progress. However, from my experience, sooner or later due to some new job or moving, it comes down to the need to learn the language systematically, putting in enough effort.

Why do people struggle with foreign languages?
Personally, I think that starting to study a language as a grown-up, people have a set of fears and psychological obstacles which are hard to tackle. While learning something new, you constantly face a problem of making a mistake, doing something wrong, fear of showing yourself as a stupid or funny. Especially if your school, educational institution used to demand infallible answers and tend to vigorous criticism before. Such a background won’t facilitate progress. In this situation it’s necessary simply to relax to some extent and start to enjoy the process. It’s important to get some zest for a language and part from fears that enchain your body and brain. Reading, watching series and speaking with like-minded foreigners will even add fuel to the fire and help fix positive emotions. Later when you get into the swing of things you might find out many “interesting” serious topics such as mixed conditionals, inversions and so on, but in the beginning it’s not a priority task.

As I faced the necessity to learn the additional language to my existing two when I moved to Belgrade, I started to ponder whether it’s really smart to spread myself too thin and maintain all languages or to be concentrated on English mainly. English is the language of my work and it’s my obligation to know it well to pass my knowledge on to students. On the one hand it’s fantastic to apply other languages in real life situations, for example, even with my basic Serbian I can understand people around me, do purchases and communicate with local people. In due time German was the main language of my thoughts and conversations in Germany. So, what is more essential to aim for?
I don't consider myself as a quick learner, who picks up vocabulary and grammar at a sitting because of it I prefer to delve into the language environment to the full extent than to lose sight of the goal while paying my attention to everything at once.
It's important for me to achieve a strong b2 level firstly ,as there is a bigger chance not to nip in the bud some seeds of knowledge.
However, now I'm going to try to combine Serbian and English at once this year, as in a lot of real-life situations I really miss well-grounded knowledge and miss some opportunities to have in-depth conversation with natives here.

Unfortunately she hated dealing with law, she wouldn't be the best lawyer, so that was the reason why she was still unemployed.
She liked to wear casual clothes, such as stretchy jeans, oversized jumpers that was not a preferrable type of clothes if you want to have a position in a law department. In some way she looked like she didn't have home, maybe it was true in phycological way as she didn't have security, stability, she wasn't free. When she was interviewed, a lot of potential employers asked her whether she would change her style or not. Of course she would say yes but by her tone and sore facial expression you would recognize a lie. She felt unhappy to go where her heart didn't lie and do what other people thought was the best option.

The old man suffered from loneliness, he had neither a wife, nor children.
The young boy didn’t care about getting married, he enjoyed going to gigs, listening to rock music and living with no cares in the world.
Being talkative doesn’t mean being smart.
What an unadventurous boy, he is a real couch potato who likes sitting at home all the time.
Living in a foreign country isn’t so easy as it seems to be, everywhere you can meet dishonest or rude people.
Nowadays less and less people go to libraries, many young people prefer to use ebooks.
I see you made a good impression on this teacher, he was kind to you.
He is very irresponsible, he entered the university but didn’t visit it any day. -Maybe he isn’t just passionate about his future profession.

Mary was unemployed and she was depressed about it. She had a degree in philosophy but nobody wanted to employ her. She worked as a sales manager but her boss wasn’t an honest man, she had to do overtime to have a good salary. Mary had looked for a job for a long time and in the end her friend told her to set up her own business in medicine because it’s a prosperous area. Before Mary set up an online business in selling medicine she had studied much information. She had spoken with experienced businessmen, doctors and pharmacists. She liked her job, self-employment, freedom, and she wasn’t afraid of being sacked. However, she had a lot of obligations and was in charge of everything 24/7. Soon she forgot about the problem of unemployment and became an experienced business woman.
