Today I was given a task to talk with company partners from Estonia.
They are going to visit Bedfont in England on 27th of June.
So, I had to discuss with them the time of their arriving,arrange accomodation in the hotel.
Also we were talking about their meeting, what they need to prepare, documents and many different things.
Estonian partners are planning to have products training. If they decide, that these products are exactly, what they need, so they start to distribute Bedfont Scientific products in Estonia.
It will be great, because company manufacture very useful and important products, which help people to quit smoking and diagnose deseases earlier.
After lunch we worked again with documents, to dispatch them to distributors.
It was busy day.

It is a good developing company, which has a lot of awards.

So, we started with the introduction of the company. Hubert, working in sales department, was very kind to show all departments of the company. They have such as: IT, Operations, Human Resources, Sales, Export, Marketing and others.
At that moment company is in a process of negotiating with companies in the market of Russia and Baltic countries.So, they would like us to help them with documentation and communication with their partners.
Also, we will investigate the transport process organization, from testing their products to their final destination to consignee.
Today we learned information about the products, they are producing.We had a look at them.It is very important to know about the cargo,you are going to deliver, because some of their goods are hazardous.

On this day there weren't any special events.We had a last walk around the Canterbury.
At 17.30 the transport manager of Concorde Int. School picked me and Julia up and we went to Maidstone by car. It took us an hour to get there. My home stay placement is situated not in the centre of Maidstone ,but near it.This is a small beautiful village with wonderful nature, wild forest animals,but here is all life conditions. It is 30 minutes far from the company, where I am going to pass my practice.
The home stay family is large, but very friendly.All members of this family work in the company.This week I live with senior manager of the company and his wife,who is a sales manager.So, I have a very good opportunity to go for my work placement together with them and come back=)But the most important is that, if have any questions or problems with my practice, I can ask about during all day until going to bed=))Sunday, May 22, 2011

First of all we visited London Bridge.
Then,searching the London Eye we came to Big Ben=))
Walking in the park near the river,we noticed London Eye on the other of it.
London Eye was very impressive,we were so high, looking down all the sights of London.It's amazing.
Near London Eye is London Aquarium,so we decided to visit it too, and it was worth visiting.
Searching the Oxford Street for shopping we came to Trafalgar Squaire.
All sights are situated closely to each other.
After shopping we were all very tired,and it time to go home.
We went to the London Bridge station by tube and than to the train to Canterbury.
The train to Canterbury West shoud come at 20.49, but we came to the station at 20.54. Fortunatelly, the train was late for 10 minutes and came at 21.00.We were lucky=))

Our First Week in Ingland!!!
So, it was my first trip so far.In the morning 15th May we met each other at the Narva bus station.All of us were nervous, but with a good mood.We checked all our luggage,documents,all what we needed and at 10.00 we started our long trip to UK.
I was really excited by the flight by plane, because I have never flyed before.The flight was fine, we had a good service and it was very a beautiful picture, we were looking in the window.
So, we successfully arrived to the Gatwic Airport and then to the London Bridge Station by train.
We had some problems with the train stations and it's timetable.By the end of the trip we all were very tired and were ready to sleep in the train until we get to our host families.
We all were very happy to arrive to Canterbury.It has been already dark and cold. The transport manager from Concorde Int. met us on the station.We sat into the cars and went to our families. We worried about, how it will be, the first meeting with family, what conditions will be there, but there weren't any problem with our accomodation.Our family is so friendly and kind, they always smile and try to do all for us to feel comfortable.
On that week I live with Kate together in our host family.We live together with girl Karla from Italy.Very nice girl, we spend a good time together.The family has a big dog Zuck.It is PitBull, but lovely and really kind dog , which comes to our room every morning =)))
From the first day we made a very good relationship with family members.They were kind to offer us to get to the school by car.
First day in Concorde we started with tests for our level of English.I did my best and had a good result.We devided into the smaller groups, according to our levels. I and Darja started studying together in one group.Our tichers' name is Rebecca.Girls, studying with us ,are from Thailand.They are so nice and friendly, they are always ready to work in team and very interested in study.
After lunch, which is 1,45 hour (where you can see such a long lunch? We are lucky!=), we have classes of Business with Denice. There we learn business ethiket, job skills, our companies and many other interesting things, which help us in future to find a good job and introduce all our capabilities.
On Tuesday, on classes of English, we learned the history of England, about the Normans,came to UK, what traditions they brought to this country and what they changed.
On the second class of English we came to Roman Museum.That's was amazing.Rebecca gave us a list of questions to answer during the excursion.It was really interesting.There are a lot of historical facts and old roman town, which was found there and the museum, built over him.We saw also roman baths in the other building.I couldn't imagine, that will see that things,which I have seen before only on TV.
On Wednesday we walked a lot in town.Took a lot of pictures,went shopping.
Thursday was a bit sad day.Students from Thailand of our group and a lot of other Japanese, Korean, Chinese are going home.It was their last day in school.We took photoes with them, gave to each other Skype, Facebook,E-mail contacts and different little presents.It were only 4 days,we studied with them, but they were really great.
On that day we had also last lesson with Denice.She gave us a good advice, what to do on our first day in the company.Her lessons were so interesting and useful,which helped us to talk more confident in English.
During the lunch today we visited Canterbury Cathedral.It is very beautiful.
We used to this town and this school,to these students.It will be difficult to leave to another city.But we need to get a good work experience.
On Friday,tomorrow we have last two classes of English until 12.30.Than we are going to spend free time together in Canterbury.
On Saturday morning we are going to London.Yes,it will be great!!!=))

Introduction course about England!!!
So, at the given stage, we pass a course of cultural preparation for practice.
It is necessary for us to know important historic facts about England, rules of behavior, tradition, culture of this country.
In electronic form we study materials, we read the important information.
It is necessary to know not only about the country in which we will take place practice, but also to know about our country. It seems, all you know, but actually, there is much that is interesting about our native country and city.
Here are links for materials about England, which we read and try to remember:
WELL DONE!!!
It is very pleasant to me to inform You about termination of our courses of Business English in language school LIKOOL.
It was good, pleasant, and, the main thing, useful time to us, when we could improve the knowledge of English language.
Thanking these courses, we began to communicate in English more confidently, have filled up the lexical stock, have got acquainted with rules of etiquette of Englishmen, have received knowledge of terminology in sphere of transportations.
It would be desirable to express gratitude to the teacher of our course Eleonora, for Her professionalism, goodwill and support.
Also many thanks to all those teachers, administrations of the Narva Vocational Training Center, who gave us such opportunity.
For me these courses have brought the big contribution to my further life =)
