"Alcatraz broke me", - this was said by one of the most dangerous American gangsters of 20th century, Al Capone, after he had got stabbed by his prison cellmate. Of course, he had already been broken by the most severe prison's conditions. Because, Al Capone used to be one of those gangsters, whom nobody could harm, even the governments. He used to go to a local prison, eat some steaks and go home. But then Alcatraz and... the beast is defeated. Too sad end for such a thug life, isn't it? Of course, people get what they deserve. But not always...

2020 had just started, when boom - coronavirus appeared, saying "let me introduce myself". As a result - worldwide quarantine. I used to like the idea of sitting at home instead of going to school, but now I hate it. Distant learning - senseless bullshit. Pseudo-tests - absurd. What do they mean? Students can easily cheat even in class. And only English is one that I love studying during the quarantine. To be honest, I refuse to do almost all the homework, except English. This is an achievement of my English teacher.

What a phenomenon! Maria Evgenievna is the only teacher, who doesn't waste her time on the pointless Zoom lessons. But her tasks are incredibly useful and effective. I like all the kinds of activities, offered by the teacher. She prepares us carefully for the tests, and this is the rare case, when my conscience doesn't let me cheat.

There are no difficulties, not mentioning that fact, that I often don't manage to do the work in time. But this even can't be regarded as work! This is just self-improvement, and it is interesting to learn English, I would do it even if there were not distant lessons at all! All the tasks are logically and carefully built to let me understand English. I really feel like I am spending my time wisely right now.

I can't really say, that the quarantine broke me, at least because I shouldn't say it. But it really demotivates me. The quarantine showed me, how meaningless and silly all this system of education is. I feel my hands falling every single day. And only English pleases me. Thanks to my dear English teacher!
