PAST TENSE

Yes! Finally we are at the last unit of our textbook for this year. And we are learning the past tense of regular verbs. It´s easy-peasy! Remember that we only have to add ED to the infinitive. Take a look at this video and you will see several examples. At the beginning you can see some sentences using the present continuous. Can you remember it?
 Just a final effort!

DEE´S VISIT

Yesterday we received a great basketball player from Club Basket Coruña: Deforrest Riley Smith, better known as Dee. We enjoyed a lot his talk. He explained some basic ideas about basketball and he helped us with our English. But we also helped him with his Spanish. He is a very friendly and funny guy. Thank you Dee! All the best!
Now you can take a look at the photos and the presentation he prepared. Enjoy it!

PRONOUNCIATION PROBLEMS

Have you ever had pronounciation problems with English? I have. Sometimes it seems that some words don´t come to your mouth, like in a tongue twister. Don´t worry! That´s normal. Just relax and try it again or leave it for another day. In this video, you can see Inspector Clouseau (a French detective) trying to say the sentence: "I WOULD LIKE TO BUY A HAMBURGER". Don´t miss it. It´s really funny!
