Our first week of another period

The new first week

I think that many of the things we've seen are kind of difficult, however it's very important to keep practicing this stuff, because when you speak english you are going to use it no matter what, when or where, but definetely we might slow down to make sure that everybody's understanding, jaja even i have had some mistakes and that shows rehearsal is the key to keep an excellent englis level.  I hope, teacher that we might me able to understand all this grammar forms, besides learning many other things, like universal culture, because when we read the article last week about the help cruzades for africa, really made me thinks about the great situation that many of us are living, so it's great to learn english and improve your worldwide knowledge.

Keep it that way teacher, see you tomorrow.

The Hershey Dilemma

The Hershey Dilemma

Well, if i were one of the trustees who want to sell the oldest and most beloved chocolate company in the U.S. (and probably in the world), i must have solid reasons to make it happen, however it's the value people had given to the city which makes this a very tough decision.

I think that if the company and the town are such a big deal for the people who lives there maybe the trustees should find a way to keep the company working, because the memories and experiences of several families are now part of the town's history, besides, tourism is an excellent reason to keep the city going on.

However, if keeping the company is not longer profitable, the best decision might be to start discussions with the villagers to find a solutios that benefits both parts, specially the Hershey town and it's famous school, because the children might be the most harmed.

So i think that talking and finding doable solutions is the best way to find out which is the best way of action, selling or fighting to keep the world's most famous chocolate company on the run.

My English Experience so Far

My Experience so Far

Hi Teacher, well during these english courses at ESCA, i've been rehearsing my english, 'cause you might know that old saying "if you don't use it, you lose it" , and i don't want this to happen.
But i've also found that english is not as difficult as it used to be, and i think is because the teachers, who have teached well during these three years, and i must say thank you to all of you.

But talking about this semester, i've found a few interesting things, and i've tried to improve my pronunciation by listening to your accent, and i'm remembering again a few things that i had forgot but now it's coming back jejeje.

Well teacher i hope i get a 10 on your test next thursday, i'm counting on you jejeje, and i'll keep paying attention so i won't forget my english courses for a long time.  See you on Monday. Take care.
