Segunda etapa de la cuarentena

Hola Chicos! Como están?  Espero que estén muy bien. Bueno les cuento que ya estuve corrigiendo sus entregas. La mayoría está trabajando con mucho compromiso y responsabilidad. Si bien la primer entrega tenía fecha limite el 31-04, entiendo la situación y  sé que esta forma de trabajar lleva más tiempo por lo cual seguiré esperando los mails de los chicos que aun no me hayan entregado. Pero es importante q lo vayan haciendo así no  se les junta  con otras tareas. Por otro lado, si no entienden algo tb me pueden mandar mail (no entiendo bien lo del foro, así que por mail sería mejor recibir consultas) consultando, lo que sí pido paciencia en las devoluciones así como también tendré estas contemplaciones para con uds, tengan en cuenta que todos los profesores tenemos muchos cursos a cargo. Me pueden enviar los mails a ambas direcciones de mails, yo chequeo ambas, quédense tranquilos en cuanto a eso. Por último les mando la clase de hoy y la del próximo miércoles así se organizan con tiempo. Obviamente si quieren me pueden entregar primero la primer parte y luego la otra, eso como uds quieran. Les mando un beso grande! Y nos vemos pronto! Cuídense, Miss Vero

3.        Script:

Hi my name is Christina and I’m from Germany. My question is what is the best way to learn English?

Well, I was really lucky because I lived abroad in New Zealand for one year, so I’ve spoken a lot of English there. It really improved my English but what is really important before you do that is learn some basics, so I learned the basics at school with a lot of listenings and readings, so exactly what those kind of videos are for, so I think it’s a good combination if your first do the basic stuff and then just go overhead and try to speak English all the time.
