Halyna and I started this session talking about her plans the previous weekend, since we had missed a session so she could celebrate her 21st birthday. We also discussed some recent political news in America since she was curious about what was happening here, and finally we talked about political corruption in the US vs Ukraine. Key vocabulary words I introduced were, among others, "indict," "chandelier," "hot tub," and "GDP."

Halyna and I started this lesson talking about differences in working culture between the US and Ukraine, and updates to what our working lives looked like. We also talked about the recent Miley Cyrus song, which she had been enjoying, and she recapped the Liam Hemsworth-Miley Cyrus drama since it was implied in the song. Finally, we talked about a Ukrainian religious holiday that was coming up. Key new vocabulary for this lesson included "minimum wage," "financially stable," "income," "employees," "baptize," and the phrase "polar bear plunge" (since for the Ukrainian holiday, people dip in freezing water).
