Dear students,
I’d like to apologise for the long period of inactivity. There were lots of things which had to be taken care of and, unfortunately, the blog suffered the consequences of my hectic life style.
Anyway, I hope now there won’t be any setbacks and we’ll be back on track again, at least posting homework.
I appreciate [...]

Howdy cowboys!!
I hope you enjoyed today’s lesson as much as I did. I guess we could get lots of things done, don’t you agree? As for the gerunds vs. infinitives grammar point, you received a list when you were in your Senior 2. I know it’d be too much to expect that all of you [...]

Wazzup?!
After a long week with no posts, here I am. Today we’ve restarted talking about annoying people and their habits. We worked on the first 2 pages of module 7, and practised telling your teacher (me) some of his annoying habits. I could notice you were a bit shy and didn’t really want to be [...]

Hi there everybody!!
So, on today’s lesson we heard a story which would reflect something called ‘compensation culture’. What is your take on that? I’d like to reinforce what I said during the lesson - make sure you refer to the tapescript found on page 168 (recording 6.2b) as it’s packed with great chunks of conversational [...]

Hey everybody!!
There was a lot of talking on our last lesson, huh?! I hope the things I told you serve as food for thought and that I could contribute a bit in your final decision. There are definitely lots of things to be considered, and I know it’s a tough decision to be made. Even [...]

Hi there!
I’ve decided to write this post just in case you’re wondering what kind of language I’m looking forward to seeing in your pieces of writing. Needless to say, you can find it all in the handout you’ve gotten when we talked about this assignment and your ever-helpful dictionary. Here it goes:
