I'll be missing ...

 This tribute to B.I.G. has expressions from US dialects I don't  teach because they aren't good for college essays or job interviews.  In a formal situation, say "I'll miss you" rather than "I'll be missing you."


If it won't make you sad, describe some foods and people that you miss right now.

International Day of Charity

 Can you write what is happening in the video?  Although this video was made for world kindness day, I think it's better for International Day of Charity.


 What is charity?  Do you support any charities?  What charities will you support when you become rich?

See You in September

 


Great work this summer!  I hope you enjoy your break!

Are you watching the Olympics?

 


Are you watching the Olympics?  What's your favorite sport?  Did you ever play a sport?  Which one?

Stay a little longer...


accidentally=by accident=with no intent=I didn't mean to do it


Our levels are very big.  I am really happy with
the progress of everyone who came to class a lot.  You all are smart and have wonderful attitudes.
You improved a lot, and that gave me a LOT of joy.
Thank you!

You don't need to use perfect grammar or to remember good grammar words (verb tense, noun, adjective, comparative, etc.) to get placed in high intermediate.  Good grammar and grammar words can make your progress much faster.
