First Week at SLIIT Academy
Today is my first day at SLIIT Academy. I was nervous and excited at the same time.

We had already received our schedules and time tables for the lectures. There were nearly 60 students at first.

Once the lecture start, I got to know that the lecture is about improving our English knowledge and communication skills. The lecturer was Ms. Ishara Raviharee.
