Dear students,
It´s confirmed that I won´t be in Spain that week.
I´m going to Oxford to take a refresher course.
Hopefully, I´ll learn many things to share with you in future lessons.
Have a nice bank holiday and see you next week.
This blog is aimed at English students that want to review and improve all the important topics dealt with in the classroom. I´ve selected some useful links of websites that will help you to improve your English language. Feel free to ask anything you need. Enjoy your English!

Optional writing
Dear students,
Have a look at some proposals for you to write about ONE of them. It´s not compulsory but highly recommended.
DEADLINE: 6thMay
I will not accept any composition after that day. I´m incredibly busy these days and I am afraid I couldn´t find the time to check after that date.
Neither will I correct now any composition from the previous ones you were supposed to do during the year.

AN OPINION ESSAY
Quite a lot of people have pets in their households. These pets are often treated as relatives. What is your opinion of such relationships? Use specific reasons and examples to support your views. (250-300 words)
A COMPLAINT LETTER
Your Town Council has decided to build a casino instead of the nursery school previously agreed upon with your Neighbourhood Association. As president of the Association, write a letter to your Mayor complaining about the situation including the following:
• your dissatisfaction with how things have developed
• the consequences that will have on the neighbourhood
• what you expect them to do
(180-200 words)
Useful language for a complaint letter

ORAL PRESENTATIONS: SCHEDULE
Dear students,
It´s time for your presentations so check the schedule.
Remember that your speech should last as
much 10 minutes.
We will use a timer and as it´s part of the task, when time is up, you won´t be allowed to continue.
As people in the audience, you are required to write down a question for each of your classmates´speeches.
Students that don´t have a tittle next to their names should tell me this week what´s your topic about.
Regarding the order of your speeches, I just did it alphabetically. However, I don´t have any problem if you change the day, or the order of the day, if you reach an agreement among you. Just let me know if you do it.
