I'm not very consistent with posting, so please bear with me.<br /><br />Fifty percent of my students are from Mexico.Some are from Germany, S. America and SE Asia. They are soccer fans, and are very excited about the upcoming World Cup in Brazil. It's easier to understand the language using material that they are familiar with.<br /><br />One little problem - the twitter bird sometimes get in the way. How can I move it to the side?<br /><br />Thanks again for all the great materials, and for taking the time to respond.<br /><br />Cheers,<br />Eileenmvmaithaihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02489782291018063556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8432864303488430100.post-72594214863706462802014-02-12T15:23:15.791-03:002014-02-12T15:23:15.791-03:00Hi Eileen,

I'm looking forward to following your adventures in future posts... <br /><br />The stuff I post here is actually material that I use in my own private English classes... That's why you'll see many examples about Brazil. I purposefully ask tons of questions, because those are the questions I probe my students with in class... including the wacky ones! <br /><br />I'm glad you found the material useful… Please feel free to use anything you want or reshape it in any form. Over time I've gotten good at asking questions that stimulate conversation... So I'm sure, as you've found, the questions are within most peoples' scope. <br />Bye for now!Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17092018023212046660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8432864303488430100.post-76476171793804221902014-02-12T14:35:19.416-03:002014-02-12T14:35:19.416-03:00Hi,

It must be a lot of work to come up with several different topics and examples and post them every day.

I posted every day for the last 2 weeks or so because I had (and still have) a backlog of "lessons" that I hadn't posted yet... I usually prepare 2 new lessons a week for my private English classes... And I calculated that if I spread them out and post on just Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays there will be 3 posts a week without fail for the rest of this year. So... The next post should come out tomorrow :)Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17092018023212046660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8432864303488430100.post-4562221038884801012014-02-11T10:58:58.111-03:002014-02-11T10:58:58.111-03:00No new post today?No new post today?Kunohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08561744312857998237noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8432864303488430100.post-11043885099608062192014-02-10T12:12:42.157-03:002014-02-10T12:12:42.157-03:00Just "work" would be "funcionar&quo...Just "work" would be "funcionar". "Work out" is "dar certo"/ "sair bem" (in Portuguese). "Work out", as a phrasal verb, has at least 3 different meanings that I am aware of: (1) Calculate, (2) exercise and (3) turn out/ have a good or positive result. I hope this helps!Frankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17092018023212046660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8432864303488430100.post-16678635534397580532014-02-10T11:48:47.687-03:002014-02-10T11:48:47.687-03:00Isn't just "work" suffice?
