We are finally back after our short break and we started off with our Basic classes on Tuesday. We took three random pictures and began writing a story. From what we wrote we learned to analyze what things we are missing individually in our learning process and so, we were able to give out useful tips like how to create a Digital English glossary and put all those words to practice as well as the usefulness of reading more in English and the benefits of picking up on key phrases for daily conversation.

On our second pronunciation class we reviewed the American vowel sounds /ɪ/, /I/, /ɑ/, /ə/ and /æ/. We had the chance to write a small paragraph and try to identify the placement of the first three sounds using our own expressions and most common words. We learned that not everything is at it seems because English doesn't sound like it is written and our brains trick us into producing the sounds that we already know. But don't worry! With constant practice and no fear, we will continue to improve our pronunciation for a more fluent speech.
