Live Lessons
The book pages of your lessons will be placed here before each scheduled lesson. When we are live on Skype, this Live Lessons page should be open so you can see the pages of your lesson.
Here are some questions I would like to ask you:
How long have you studied English?
Have you ever studied online?
Do you want to study on a regular basis?
How important is grammar for you?
Do you need more practice in speaking or writing?
What is your goal for this class?
What is your email address?
Задания для Вашего урока будут размещены здесь, перед каждым запланированным занятием. Когда мы находимся в прямом эфире на Skype, эта страница Онлайн урока должна быть открыта.
Вот некоторые вопросы, которые я хотела бы задатьВам:
Как долго Вы изучали английский язык?
Вы когда-нибудь учились он-лайн?
Вы хотите заниматься на постоянной основе?
Насколько важна грамматика для Вас?
Вам нужна больше практика говорения или письма?
Какова цель ваших занятий?
Каков Ваш адрес электронной почты?
