  • Jennifer Baran, an EFL Instructor, at the ELU-Faculty of Science, from America, preferred to use her new GeoCitis website, which she has built during my workshop. She preferred to use her new homepage for personal purposes to publish a book, "One Year of Hell in Kuwait", she was writing to describe her new experience, living and working in Kuwait! She promised to send me her URL when her book is completed and published on the Internet to be read by the whole world.
