American Slang and Idioms

The struggle to adjust to college or university life in the US is not only material and emotional for international students, but also linguistic.
Campuses have their own language: a confection of catchphrases, slang and punchlines.

Lording over these are certain perennial English idioms that define the US college experience, such as to:
•    Play hooky: an undergraduate specialty, this means to skip class
•    Hit the books: the opposite of playing hooky – studying
•    Ace the exam: to pass an exam without difficulty (thanks to hitting the books!)
When you attend this workshop, our American expert will teach you tons of College slangs & American English idioms and why they are used.

Price: $15.
