DIDEPA STUDENTS

Hi my dear students. How was your weekend? I hope just great! On this occasion I just want you to drop a line about your expectations for this course, what kind of activities you would like to practice the most and what has been the most difficult aspect of learning English for you.

Remember to drop your line on the blog by Wednesday this time you have until 9:00pm because I know that for some of you it might be difficult to write the comment on the blog, so I hope that if you can't make it, ask for help in class to your classmates who know how to do it, but I won't accept your participation by other means of commucnication, so don't send anything to my mail.

Thank you so much, take care and see you on Wednesday.
