The world tonight

Just in case you are interested,
   from time to time I download and listen to this program:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/podcasts/series/wtonight

   It's broadcasted via BBC Radio 4 Monday to Friday and contains, as the presenter says, 'in-depth reporting, intelligent analysis and major breaking news from a global perspective'

   Kill two birds with one stone: improve your English and stay updated.

Hi again
Just to confirm that the operation is on, so there's no class next Tuesday (4/12/12). We'll catch up the following week by having class on the Friday (14/12/12) in addition to the usual ones.
Probably best to check the blog or eoi website (www.eoisantander.org) before coming on Tuesday 11th, just to make sure.
Enjoy the break!

Thurs 29/11

Today we looked at metaphors (U2.1) and opinions (U2.2 - also the listening here on living libraries). I gave out a handout on expressing facts, opinions and desires (answers on a previous blog entry).
We also looked very briefly at some connectors (U2.2) in preparation for the writing homework
