Last wednesday the 29 of April we had our Free English Workshop as usual.

In our Free Italian Workshop we welcomed Adrian & friend who had lived 9 months in Italy and wanted to keep up their Italian.

Yesterday we, Dante, Vicky, Roberto, Salvador, Paco, Lorena, Aina, Paula and Joan watched the Ted.com video "How to spot a liar"

We took turns to read and understand all the words in the transcript.
It was very difficult but our great students did very well!
Lorena brought us a lovely cake
Aina brought us some fresh strawberries.
We all had a great evening

Lezione di Italiano eravamo in 4: Ed il nosotro professore Roberto, Paco, Dante, Vicky e Paula.

Abbiamo letto argomenti sugli imperatori romani e ci siamo divertíti molto discutindone le origini.

We were only 3 people yesterday, an all time low record! Maybe because of the football match?
But we were very productive!

Salvador brought his Video Curriculum script.
We corrected it and did 3 test recordings.
Congratulations Salvador for breaking the ice!
You did it very well.
Next week we will record it again until it is perfect!

We listened to a Ted Talk Video (17 mins) with subtitles.
We will repeat this interesting Video in next week´s workshop.

Please bring your scripts next week if you want to record your video curriculum.

Last Wednesday, 10th march, we learnt about the English expression «to keep a lid on it» with Paula, Dante, Xavier, Olga, Joan, Mar, Esther, Salvador, Sara & Laura
That means to keep a secret that nobody should know.
So, we listened and read like every Wednesday
« The English we speak» from the BBC website
We had also connected by skype with Vicky de http://www.proyectovision.org/
Dante proposed for the next Wednesday to make a video curriculum, for anybody who wanted one and we can upload it to Youtube after some practice every workshop.
So, our next homework for this coming Wednesday will be to write & bring the script for it.
To finish, we tasted a juicy cake made for us by Paula.
Greetings to all.

Empezamos un poco tarde el español solo con:
Anastasia https://www.linkedin.com/in/vasilenkoanastasia, Paco y Dante http://es.linkedin.com/in/dantesmith
Cambiamos impresiones sobre las futuras perspectivas laborales de Anastasia https://www.linkedin.com/in/vasilenkoanastasia y Paco definia los objetivos a valorar al escoger entre un nuevo proyecto laboral u otro.
Dante hizo hincapie en la sostenibilidad de los startups en España hoy.

 

Анастасия  https://www.linkedin.com/in/vasilenkoanastasia осталась на русский урок, она переводила нам на испанский язык незнакомые слова.

Наша русская учительница Елена спрашивала у нас домашнее задание.

Мы выучили ещё несколько новых слов: запад, юг и север.

Мы повторяли слова из наших предыдущих уроков.

Мы много практиковали произношение.

А также мы научились считать до пяти!

Когда Данте http://es.linkedin.com/in/dantesmit, Пако & Руже встречаются на улице они говорят друг с другом по-русски!!!

Елена был очень довольна визуальной памятью Руже , а также тем, что Пако всегда делает свою домашнюю работу!

 

Ciao a tutti, mercoledi nella classe d'ítaliano abbiamo parlato di un episodio del vecchio Testamento; piú precisamente della morte di Abele per la propria mano di Caino, suo fratello. Abbiamo mantenuto una piccola discussione sulla fede religiosa; alla fine abbiamo tradotto i mestieri italiani dall'italiano allo spagnolo. Saluttti e saluti ;-)

Yesterday's English Workshop at Start2Bee was a new occasion to have fun while meeting very nice people... and practicing English, of course, as everything we say, read or listen to from 19.30 to 21 hs must be in this language.

With some "casualties" due to the Mobile World Congress and different personal activities, we were six this time: Helena, yesterday's newcomer; the regulars Paco, Ester, Roberto and Paula and, last but not least, Mr. Smith (AKA Dante es.linkedin.com/in/dantesmith ), without whom this workshop would have no sense at all.
