Cinema

What is your personal story with cinema?

In our fourth blog post, we will talk about cinema. These days we have so many alternatives to see great movies, and we have so many stories that come from it, we can get happy, get sad, even change our complete idea of life, love or the universe just by watching a simple or complex story for 2 hours.
Tell us your personal story with cinema, it can be one movie you fell in love with, or a movie you saw when you fell in love with someone els. It can be your story with cinema as a total phenomenon or with a saga you love... or hate.

An anecdote...

An anecdote is "a short and amusing or interesting story about a real incident or person", well, this time your task will be telling one of those stories, that has really happened to yourself, but there is something else about it, your anecdote MUST be about English, we all have had interesting stories aabout a word we don't understand, or a funny thing we read, let's share those experiencies, and to inspire you, take a look at this video that will help you understand certain language differences.

Journeys

Hi everybody,

In this week's post we will be talking about journeys or trips.
After you watch the video for this week, I want you to write a story, telling us an interesting anecdote about an unusual or important trip in your life. Try to be funny and remember to read your partners' stories too, to identify if there are any similar stories to yours.

Hi all,
This time our blog topic is families, we all have different families, big ones, small ones, families that get together very often and families that are more independent, probably some of you have some relatives abroad and some of you have relatives in different parts of the country. Probably some of you spend more time with your in-laws, or the family of your girlfriend/boyfriend.
What I want you to do in this post, is to describe your family, talking about the 2 or three people who are closest to you and talk about the activities you like to do together.
Have a good writing time!

In our first video, two people talk about working from home, not in an office or any other place, do you think it is easy to work in that condition? What do you think are the good things and the bad things about working from your own home?

After you watch the video, write about the job you think you will do as an engineer in the future, the type of company you would like to work for and the type of things a professional does in your area.

Listen for these words in the video, some of them can be useful when you write your comments:

deadline
discipline
efficient
grow up
structure
temptation
