My proposal for the course
Thanks for Mi.Han’s arduous teaching for this quarter.I think this course is very helpful for my understanding of western culture.I hope Mi.Han could discu more about famous sites in the countries, not just about the politics or economy.And I believe some appropriate videos would help much more.
