The topic of the class was two word verbs and we listened a song call "What lovers do" by Adam Levine. I did not like much the song but I learned a few a words, for example I learned the meaning of "gate" and an interesting word was "tryna", well, is not actually a word, it is like a simple way to say "trying to". I imagined that, but I was not sure.

We got the tests resolves that we did last week. I realized that I need to improve my grammar and I would need to amplify my knowledge on the past tense subjects. I need to put them into practice.   

We also completed a couple of units of the red book. The topic was about how to locate places using the expressions “There is / is not” and “there are / are not”. We learned prepositions used to give an address. We worked in pairs and we had to ask to the other person about places around your neighborhood.

Then, we focused on the list of two word verbs. We wrote a conversation down adding fifteen two word verbs. It was really complicated because our group did not had much imagination to do it. Anyway, I met two guys and Monica and I  made some jokes on how familiar they were with to classmates from another course.

I enjoyed to meet different people in the course and know about your circumstances because I realize that there are many of them who travel long distances to be in this English course. All of us have to do sacrifices so we have to take advantage of the teacher’s  time in order to put ourselves to the limit.

Also, I learned a few of two word verbs and my idea is learn all of the verbs that we have in the document. Actually, I used some of these verbs in my last job and I did not realize.

The first class, I felt lose with the material and with the people but I am adapting to the course. I like to see the oldest people participating a lot in the class.
