=> I would like to tell everyone my feeling finishing the CALL class. I don't know what to say. It was quite hard time for me to follow and keep up with. Because of my job, doing both at the same time was really tough. I should have chosen only one. Especially, in April, I was almost dying. Working without day-off made me worn out. I had to take care of my students' midterm exam. If I had had more time, I could have done at least better than now. I don't like much of myself in being inperfection. But there were many benefits for me. If I hadn't taken this course, I would never know that so much information. It was awesome, seeing the whole new sites. I felt that I was fool. If I teach students English with projecter, I will use the sites that I learned in CALL class.
