The presentation on English language teaching and learning resources online were introduced to our participants by the center's coordinator. Our guests had the opportunity to learn about and work with the iPads and Kindle. Also we spoke about center’s book collection, activities, projects. We invited them to special events held at the library over the summer. These are usually fun, exciting and educational.

In April we discussed some appealing topics together with Robert: American and Ukrainian stereotypes, cultural issues, higher education in the USA, Easter traditions in Ukraine and the USA. The participants shared their family traditions of celebrating this holiday. Robert told us much amusing and striking about the way people celebrate Easter in the USA.
