Relationships and couples


Last week we focused on the differences between genders and way of thinking.

Yesterday we started to analyse different human relationships (friendship, couples...) and we saw in class a funny video entitled "How to break up with your girlfriend in 64 easy steps". Though a bit exagerated, do you feel identified? Do you recognise the different stages?

Here you have the video in case you want to watch it again

Survey

Hello,

I think that in order to have a good class atmosphere, it is vital to know what your opinion is.

That's why I've created a survey for you to help me improve in the classes and to have some feedback from you. It takes less than a minute to complete it and you are doing it in an anonymous way, of course.

Click here to complete it.

Thank you

Correction code


Yesterday in class, I told you that I use a correction code for your compositions. From my own experience, I think this method is useful because it'll help you learn from your mistakes.

Misunderstandings and the importance of pronunciation

As we saw the first day of class, Spaniards are not the only ones having problems with English. Sometimes, there are also other people who find pronunciation very hard because of many different reasons (e.g. they don' have these sounds in their corresponding mother tongues). This is what happened to...

a French guy wanting to learn English



an Italian man who went to Malta




 a German coast guard


I hope you have fun!!!

See you
