SAM’S ENGLISH LESSONS
Hi! My name is Sam. I live in Poland in a beautiful cottage in a small village. My village is surrounded by lovely countryside with fields, woods, streams and a small lake. Opposite my house there is a big shopping centre with a multi-storey car park. My mother works there.
I go to school. I am a pupil of the eighth form. I love my English lessons very much. They are interesting and we have a lot of fun. We discuss different questions in English. We also do a lot of exercises, ask and answer questions,
Compare and contrast, learn to explain quotations in our own words, make word charts, do project and research work. I do enjoy my English lessons.
How about you? Do you love your English lessons? Are they as exciting as mine?
I am looking forward to your answer.
Yours,
Sam.
