WELCOME and COURSE ORGANIZATION


First of all, I would like to welcome everybody  to this Advanced C1 Blog. This year I will try to help you in your learning process but remember: if you just come to school, sit down and listen, you won't make progress, so from now on don't be shy! When you are in class talk, give your opinion... (in English, of course). And outside class do your homework, watch TV programmes and films in English with or without subtitles, listen to the news, read newspapers, magazines and books adapted to your level, surf the Internet, if you know any native speaker talk to him/her in English... and of course, take advantage of this blog.
On the right-hand side bar you'll find the labels for the different posts, so you can choose the topic you're interested in (listening exercises, pronunciation, grammar...) or the unit you want to revise . You'll also find a long list of links to interesting websites.

Hope it's useful. Regards and see you in class!
