Dig in!


Hi students!

Have you already read the text about cooking classes that I gave you the other day? If not, you should do it before reading this post, since here you'll be expanding the vocabulary you'll have learned on those exercises.

Ready? So click on these links if you want to learn some vocabulary of food and cooking:

What did you think about the phone conversations you guys practised with Ernesto in class the other day? It was not as easy as it seems, was it? Have you ever tried to order a pizza in English? Try this listening exercise to see how well you can understand:


That's all for now and, since we're on holidays and that's when we normally eat more, enjoy all different Easter sweets but, take it easy. Indigestion and obesity might not be the best partners to enjoy our holidays, don't you think?

One more thing before leaving, as some of you asked me about the correction charts I use to mark your Writing and Speaking tests, I included them on the blog. If you go to Resources and click on "Correction Charts", you'll be able to check them online, download them or print them, whatever you prefer. I hope this will help you to be aware of what I mostly take into account when I correct a test and, that way, you'll be able to focus your practice in those parts where you find more difficulties.

Enjoy your holidays!
