The Press in English

Hi everyone,

I told you this week that you have the opportunity to read the press in English. I found the link to the English Issue of El Pais. If you like other newspapers, maybe there is also an online version in English.And I think both students from Intermediate One and Intermediate Two will benefit extraordinarily if you start reading the press in English on a regular basis.

Here is the version I found:

Happy Weekend!!!

And examples of the exam

And here is a link to one model of the INTERM.TWO exam. But this exam is from the EOI Pamplona. The exam in Madrid doesn't have to be exactly like this. However, it is good for you to see how the structure could be:

In Departamentos de Idiomas, go to Programas Inglés Basico e Intermedio, and in the "programacion", there is a link at the end which says "modelo de prueba"

And also the website to the model of the exam in the EOI Tudela:

WELCOME

















Hi everyone,Today I had the first class with one of my Intermediate Two Groups. And we spoke a bit about the Phonemes of English.

I will try to photocopy a good chart that I have at home so that you can use it to improve your spoken English and pronunciation.

And I will also try to fill your Intermediate Two section with links for you to practise at home...Meanwhile, have a look at the links already available in the different sections of my blog. And also this link on different accents(in Britain only!!)

Happy Weekend!
