HELLO, HELLO. TODAY IS A HOLIDAY, BUT THIS IS FOR NEXT WEEK.

I´D LIKE YOU TO WATCH THIS SHORT TED TALK:

LISTEN FOR THESE WORDS AND PHRASES. WHAT DO THEY MEAN?

SUBTRACT     CHALLENGES     DEPRIVED     SUSTAINABLE     

IN A RUT     GIVE UP (SUGAR)     GIVE (SOMETHING) A SHOT

CAN YOU USE SOME OF THEM IN A SENTENCE?

HI EVERYONE!!!  I MISS ALL YOU GOOD PEOPLE VERY MUCH! 

HOW DID YOU DO WITH THE LAST CLASS ABOUT ASKING FOR AND GIVING DIRECTIONS? ARE YOU GOING TO BE ABLE TO DO IT IN CLASS?

TODAY I AM SHARING A VIDEO WITH YOU ABOUT SPEAKING ENGLISH. IT IS EXCELLENT AND YOU CAN SEE IT AS MANY TIMES AS YOU WANT TO BE ABLE TO UNDERSTAND IT. 

THE IDEA IS HOW TO NOT ONLY SPEAK ENGLISH, BUT THINK  IN ENGLISH. IT TOOK ME A LONG TIME TO THINK IN SPANISH. 

THESE TIPS (AYUDITAS) ARE VERY HELPFUL!

SEE VIDEO

(click on the word video to see it.)

1. TALK TO  YOURSELF WHEN YOU ARE ALONE, OUT AND AROUND. ALSO,   PRACTICE NARRATING THINGS.

2. DON´T USE YOUR ENGLISH SPANISH DICTIONARY. ONLY USE AN ENGLISH DICTIONARY

3. IN A CONVERSATION, DESCRIBE ANY WORD THAT YOU CAN´T REMEMBER.

4. KEEP A DIARY AND A "TO DO" LIST COMPLETELY IN ENGLISH.

5. CREATE A MANTRA IN ENGLISH. ☺

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

HOPE TO SEE YOU GUYS SOON!

CLASS 1

HELLO AND WELCOME CONVERSATION STUDENTS!

Due to recent circumstances that we are all aware of, I will be communicating with you via this link so that you will have a way to practice your spoken English. I´ll be giving you a few exercises that you can practice at home and be ready to talk about in class. 

First, I would like each of you to look at the  photocopy that I gave you on the first day of class and practice talking about each item. That is what I had planned for the second class.

Next, I want you to look at the following map and practice asking for and giving directions out loud (en voz alta). 

Do you remember how to ask for and give directions? Here are some examples:

PRACTICE ASKING FOR DIRECTIONS AND GIVING THEM. FOR EXAMPLE:
The man is standing at the zoo.   
A. "Excuse me. I¨m lost could you tell me how to get to the hotel?"
B. "Of course! Go straight up East Street and turn left on South Street.. When you get to the bookstore, turn right on West Street. There is a bank on the left and the hotel is next to the hotel."
A. "Ok. Thank you so much!"
B. " You´re welcome. Have a nice day!"

Ok, practice this and we will do it again in class with maps.
