ENGLISH LEARNING SERVICES.

Hello group:

As you know the amount of Internet resources regarding English practice and English learning is so huge that one can easily get lost. I have chosen three sites from three media networks. They have a special section for learning English. They are varied: one from Australia, one from Britain and one from U.S. Maybe you know the BBC's service. It's a more interesting way of practising. Forget about boring books.

Australia network.

Voice of America.

BBC World service learning English. 

I hope you find them useful.

THE GRAPES OF WRATH.

 Hello people:

Maybe you already know that the library is showing a new film in English. It will be this Thursday (27th) at 18.00 in the Culture House. This time the film will be "The Grapes of Wrath" directed by the master John Ford. The homonym novel was written by John Steinbeck in 1939, considered one of huis masterpieces.
Here I leave you Roger Ebert's review on the film: "The Grapes of Wrath" review.

Bye!

21st JANUARY SESSION.

Hello everybody:

In the last session we were less than normally. We talked about stand-up comedy and shopping centres, specially those in Villalba. Then we moved to a very recent topic of discussion: restaurants, smoking and the new law. We also analysed the current situation of employment/ unemployment in Spain as well as matters regarding the world of work. Then, we changed the topic to discuss about pollution and alternative energy sources.
 So, as you can see, we always change from topic to topic and we never stop talking.

See you again on Friday.

14th JANUARY SESSION.

Hello everyone:

It seemed very far away, but, finally, we've had our first session this year. At the beginning we were a bit shy and silent, maybe because our English had some "spiderwebs" after Xmas holidays. The warming up consisted of talking about our holidays (or in some cases lack of holidays, sorry Alberto and Marina). Then we started to talk about some movies as well as the shooting incident in the U.S. This led us to talk about violence nowdays. As usual, our final topic was a bit different: the National Health Service, basically in the U.S and Spain.

See you in the next session.
