Welcome to your class blog


Dearest students,
Welcome to your class blog! I have been using blogs in my English classes as an extension of our classroom. Blogs have become an important space to listen to each other. Large classes make it sometimes difficult for everyone to have a chance to express him/herself. So, let’s take advantage of this blog as a space to say all we did not have time to say in class, to express opinions and to share views.
Participation in this blog is another way of participation, another way of using your English and a way to expose yourself to the target language. Remember 90% of your learning depends on you rather than on your teacher or on the few hours a week you come to class.
Let's get started by sending your impressions about your group and the things we have done and/or learned in class so far? Say what you have or haven´t enjoyed.
I’m eager to hear from you!
