(except for IT/computer classes, of course) 2. What was easy to do? 3. What was difficult? 4. What did you like most? 5. Why did you choose to work on it? 6. In the future, how would you like to study English: a) only in class; b)only online c) a combination of a and b., i.e.as we have done this year.
