Our Language laboratory.

 

This is our language laboratory. We have a very good language laboratory at our university. Every week students have an English class in this laboratory. Look at it. This is a teacher’s desk. It has two tape recorders. Those are students’ desks. Each desk has two pairs of headphones and a microphone. We have 16 desks. This is a blackboard and that is a screen. We have many slides in our language laboratory. These are shelves with the dictionaries. We have different dictionaries on the shelves. On the walls we have many pictures and tables. Students have very interesting classes in this laboratory. Students read and translate texts. We have many interesting text books. Students listen to tape recorders and repeat dialogues and monologues after the speaker. They make their own dialogues and discuss different topics. Ten years ago our University had no language laboratory. Now it has. Soon our department will have a computer class. Each student will have a personal computer on the desk. Every week the students will have an English lesson in the computer classroom.
