    Family Lunch

    On 23 April 1998, Marjorie’s father disappeared in the north of Switzerland. It was almost seventy years ago.? It was twenty years ago.

    On the same day, over 2.000 kilometers away, Marjorie was enjoying lunch with her two children. Clare had arrived from London the day before and Andrew was already there.

    The two of them were enjoying their mother’s cooking. She had cooked salmon with sorrel, their favourite dish. It was then that the telephone rang. Clare went to answer the phone. It was the foreign office. They said that her father’s body had been discovered and it was about to be recovered from the mountain where he was the day that he disappeared.

    Hi Carlos, I think it's a great idea to learn words that relate to each other or come under the same topic. For example; food, animals, body parts etc. I also do this when I'm learning new vocabulary.

    Another thing to consider is how you learn... there are lots of different types of learners. Visual Learners - people who like to visualise a word, draw a picture or colour code their notes to help them remember.  Auditory Learners - people who prefer to hear information rather than read it, they might prefer to have music playing softly in the background whilst studying or using rhymes to learn things. Physical Learners - people who learn by doing, for example when learning a language - role plays. Reading and Writing learners - people who like to read texts and write what they've just read in their own words or people who like to write out the language before speaking. I always ask my students how they learn when we first start working together so that I can tailor my classes to help them learn faster.

    I'm a visual learner so I love putting sticky notes everywhere with the target language that I'm learning and using flashcards with new vocabulary. I hope this helps.

    Best wishes, Louise
