On Nov. 13^th, Mr. Tom Umland from Foreign Language Department of IVT, a veteran teacher with a young mental attitude, gave us a wonderful lecture.

    The lecture was more like a talk face to face. He talked about the geography, history and culture of America. Although he is an American, he physically introduced the history of his native country. We all appreciated it very much. Sometimes we burst into laughter because of his humorous words. We listened to him carefully and learned a lot in a relaxing atmosphere.

    One and a half hours had passed before we knew it. “Now, you can ask me some questions, any question!” said Tom. The students were very active in asking questions and Tom gave each of them a satisfying reply. The lecture ended up with a burst of thunderous applause.
