We hope to get lots of attendees here at our SAT & SET offices in Madrid.
What´s the chance of watching these webinars in down time? Will there be written material available later on?
ReplyDeleteJamie,
ReplyDeleteWe're checking to see if Pearson Longman will set up an archive of the webinars they've "aired" this week. I'll let you know as soon as I find out. I've already had other teachers asking me about this. It's good to know you people are out there.
Thanks and keep blogging.
Thanks for this Blog and for the help in understanding it and other things..
ReplyDeleteI would appreciate any help with the following: General quick tips on anything for example easy tips on where to stress. Also modal verbs seem to be a tough subject for Spaniards especially "would" so any help .......
I also would very much like to have the opportunity to view some of these sessions in my own time.
