1.The first classes were very nice. I learned about the English code of behaviour, especially how to behave when you meet people and how you introduce people to other people. Also I learned about the habits of some other cultures, especially outside the classes but also in the class. Outside the classes I have socialized or something like that and I have watched the City of Exeter.
2.A lot of things I recognize, but now it is brought from another point of view and that is very interesting. There also are a lot of new things. I especially liked the subjects about the differences between the cultures. But till so far every thing is very interesting. In general everything was nice and there was not a thing that surprised me.
3.I learned about the English language and the behaviour. I also learned more about the different cultures. My view has not changed very much. But one thing I learned, changed my way of thinking. I thought that the English and American Businesses were very hierarchical, but they are not any more.
4.In general I believe everything I learned so far will be usefull. I am going to implement it by learning it and to practice it a lot. But how I will exactly use it I do not know at the moment.
| Instances | Description |
| 6 | ARTICLE - you have made a mistake with the use of the article ( ie a, an, the or zero) with a noun or noun phrase. First check that you know whether the noun is countable or uncountable, and singular or plural |
| 2 | NOT THE BEST CHOICE - your meaning is clear but this is not a good way, or not the best way, to express it. This may relate to one word, or a phrase or a whole sentence. You may need to change the syntax or the vocabulary or both. |
| 1 | PHRASE CONSTRUCTION - you have used the wrong construction after the verb/noun/adjective/adverb; for example, you might have used 'to' instead of 'that', or an '-ing' form instead of 'to' etc |
| 1 | PUNCTUATION - punctuation mistake. For example, you may have used a comma when it is not necessary, or a capital letter is required. |
| 1 | REFERENCE - you have made a mistake in how you refer to something previously mentioned. You may have used the wrong word to do this; or it may not be clear what you are referring to, or the referent (= the thing you are referring to) may be too far away; or a pronoun is needed |
| 1 | SENTENCE TOO LONG - your sentence needs to be made into several shorter ones. |
| 1 | NUMBER OF NOUN - you have put a word in the singular when it should be plural, or vice versa. Or perhaps the noun is countable and you thought it was uncountable, or vice versa. Check that you have used the right article, as well. |
| 2 | SPELLING - the word is wrongly spelled. |
| 3 | VOCABULARY MISTAKE - you have used the wrong word. Check in the dictionary. |
