Hello everyone! :)

Have you ever been confused about passive voice when you found two objects in active sentence??

Hello Guys,

How are you all?

To this aim, it is really being to difficult for me to read the books I intend to read during this month. 

Anyway, do you love reading? Do you have a target for whole year within the scope of reading or do you count how many pages

          I always enjoy expressing my thoughts since the commencement of my academic career. After enrolment in the University for Master Degree, I was required to write thesis. While researching relevant topics to my assignment, I came across two words “English Club”. The word “club” gives me different imagination regarding this site. I mean English with entertainment; I got a chance to visit there to see what this site is about. I found many useful links videos, blog posts etc. So, I decided
