I should probably...
You shouldn't give up. English is hard. You'll get it if you keep practicing. Students often don't learn as fast as they want, but the people who don't quit always get better.
What should I do if I have a headache? What should my daughter do if she feels anxious? What should your friend do if she wants to visit you?

A couple of students asked about names of coins today. I like the explanation and practice on this YouTube video.
What do you use coins for?
Do you believe it's good luck to pick up a penny? If you find a penny, does it matter if it's heads or tails?
Did you ever buy something expensive using only coins?
Why? Because!
In this song long means want a LOT. Don't use long this way in everyday speaking. It's okay for poetry and writing.
We practiced a speaking drill today. A few people found it difficult. Here are the answers. Speak them a few times.
How do you feel today? Why?

Soccer Positions
I briefly talked about soccer positions today, so I am looking for a video with the same information for the people who couldn't be in class today. I think the names for soccer positions probably changed since I last played. What I learned as "center" is "striker" on many videos. Many videos call half-backs "wings." Many videos distinguish full backs as the left or right back.
Do you like to play soccer? Does your child play soccer? Do you (or your child) usually play offense or defense?
