Josh est un jeune homme très talenteux et très passioné de langues. Malgré le fait qu'il est très jeune, il parle couramment francais et en plus il apprend d'autres langues comme le japonais et l'espagnol. On peut voir qu'il a bien les pieds sur la terre. Bravo, Josh! Je suis sûre qu'avec ta détermination tu pourras faire beaucoup plus de progrès!

Joshua était super sympa et son francais était très bon aussi! En plus, il n'est qu'au lycée, donc je suis très impressionée! Il va devenir un polyglotte dans le futur! Bravo! Merci beaucoup pour ton temps!

    CAE Informal letter

    Dear Alberto,

    Thank you so much for your letter. I'm so excited to hear that you are visiting Highfield soon. I can't wait to see you! By the way, sorry for replying so late. I've been snowed under with work.

    To begin with, Highfield has so much to offer in terms of leisure activities. In fact, you'll be spoilt for choice! This is a fantastic town to recharge your batteries after a busy and stressful day at work.

    If I were you, I'd definitely try to go to our well-known 3D cinema. It's renowned for its outstanding facilities and also for having the latest films. Many of them are blockbusters in this day and age. There is no doubt for me whatsoever that this cinema is second to none in my region. I advise you to watch the film "The Rose", which will keep you on the edge of your seat.

    Apart from watching engaging films, I suggest hanging out at the urban beach to kill time during the evenings. I strongly recommend capturing the stunning sunsets on camera. I'm sure that will be an unforgettable experience for you. By the way, don't forget to try the local delicacies at the nearby high-end restaurants.

    Well, I'd better stop writing now because I've got too much work to do. Please, let me know if you have any question and give me a call when you get to Highfields so that we can meet somewhere to have a meal.

    Best wishes,

    Josué

    this is funny haha. I wonder where highfields is.
    But yeah, this is basically perfect

    Many boys in..

    Please correct any mistakes in this writing:

    Many boys in Indian culture remain mentally Immature until mid 30s 'cause (because, but people often do say "coz" informally) of the kind of upbringing they receive. Overprotectiveness offered by mothers & by women around them makes it difficult to reach their full potential & think logically. It also enables ill treatment of women.

    “This is a new treatment for infantile facial hemangioma”

    This one is correct. The main "noun" per se is the 'facial hemangioma', and the word "infantile" is the adjective describing that noun. Since the adjective comes before the noun, the resulting sentence is the above one^^

    today i had one meeting at work. It was difficult because my internet is so unstable, my screen kept freezing and my microphone doesn't work very well. Anyways, I was wishing for it to end because the meeting with my partners was terrible.
    After a while, I realised that my laptop was connected to another wifi and that that was the problem.

    not sure what you meant by "time less", but well done overall

    Procrastination in language learning (writing day 8)

    I think all people procrastinate at least once in their life. Sometimes you catch yourself watching a cat video or scrolling Facebook feed instead of doing your task or preparing for an exam.
    Procrastination affects many areas of life and happens because of different reasons. Of course, in language learning, there is procrastination too - it's a huge project and at times it may be quite difficult to do the same things, to read the same rules. Also, making mistakes can leave you feeling frustrated and disappointed.
    When I started to write every day, I realized that I often put off writing till the evening. As a result, I do it when I'm exhausted and in a rush, because I want to sleep.
    So, I decided to fight learning procrastination in a few ways:
    1. I'll break the big job down into a series of little tasks. For example: find an idea - prepare a template - write:)
    2. The "2-minute rule" - I'll ask myself to write for 2 minutes (or to write one sentence) instead of writing full text. Usually, the hardest part is getting started. Once I've started, I'll probably end up finishing the whole text.
    3. I'll treat myself. The very fact, that my text was read out and someone wrote a comment or edited it, already is a reward. But sometimes I'll do something small but nice as watching an episode of a comedy TV show.

    And what do you do to fight procrastination in language learning?

    Highfield's swimming pool

    Are you still seeking out sports facilities where you can lose weight or be fit in the short-run? Are you feeling frustrated because you have not found out which workout might suit you best? If so, Highfield's swimming pool has a lot to offer you.

    This swimming pool is ideal for anyone, regardless of <s>their</s> age or physical condition. On top of that, there are outstanding facilities intended for disabled people, such as the blind or whose who are struggling to recover from a severe accident.

    I originally started learning to swim f<s>rom scratch</s> when I was 13 years old, but I never found out <s>an</s> adequate training that suited my needs. Then, by a stroke of luck, my brother gave me a brochure about a recently opened swimming pool with superb facilities, reasonable fees and highly qualified trainers. And, eventually, it turned out to be true after training on a daily basis. Now, I am stronger than ever before and have a friendly relationship with my trainers.

    Nevertheless, there is one important drawback when training in the swimming pool: the cleanliness of the water. In my view, this problem, this problem might be sorted out by hiring more cleaners and supervising more frequently the state of the water.

    To sum up, there is no doubt whatsoever that this swimming pool has lived up to the expectations of numerous people from my neighbourhood. For this reason, I strongly recommend training in Highfield's swimming pool, which is second to none in my region.

    A brief text in English!!!

    Hi! I’m josé and I’d like to tell you about my week. I live in Argentina and here we are still under lockdown. *These days I’ve been studying a lot for university and I’m a bit tired. This semester I attended physics and to be honest I’m not the best in that subject. Despite quarantine I’m trying to keep in touch with my friends. *Yesterday I called a friend, it was very nice. The other day I’m going to call to my grandparents to see how they are. (we never say "they're" in this case).

    *These days I’ve been studying a lot for university and I’m a bit tired.
    OR
    Because I've been studying a lot for university these days, I'm a bit tired.

    *Yesterday I called a friend; it was very nice

    Happy day

    Today I've been feeling happy since I got up in the morning because Lori helped me correct my essay yesterday. She pointed out my mistakes and I was deeply moved by it! I tell myself today is a good day too. Then I washed my face, brushed my teeth, had a breakfast with my family (as usual) and I did a simple skin care routine. At about 10 o'clock, my mom took me to do some shopping, I'm very happy since it can bring me some comfort. What's more, my mom asked me "What do you want?" Then…ha ha ha…I have a new pair of trousers! I listened to the song, "But I know that it's wonderful, incredible, baby irrational…"
