Edinburgh                                                                                    6 October

 

Dear Anna,

Thank you for your letter which came yesterday. I like to hear from you. The news of you interview is very interesting. You didn’t say if you got the job I hopw so. I was sorry to hear that you have been bugled again. How much money have you been stolen? Five hundred pounds is a lot of money. Do the police know who did it?

You wanted me to tell you about what I am doing in Edinburgh and how is my life there. Well, I enjoy it very much. The course is goot but harder that I thought. First, I hadn’t any friends, but I soon knew the people who are in same department as me. Actually, I spent all the time trying to buy the books I need to read for my course although it is difficult to find them. I’m sure I will find them soon. When I buy them, I’ll be very busy!

I’m finish now. My friend must write a letter in French and I said that I would help him. Write or phone me soon. If you go to Scotland, you should visit me, but remember to take warm clothes! If is so cold here!

                                                              Best wishes

                                                                        Serge.

FLIPPING THE CLASSROOM

This video shows a different way to do class.

A normal class is when the teacher explains the subject in front of the students and all of them in theory are listening to him/her. The problem is that not all the students learn in the same way.

As a result the video explains a different idea for doing a class. The teacher makes different videos with the contents and the students can see them lots of times and they can learn independently.

The profit is that every student is able to learn on his way, practice what they want and they can ask the teacher too in class.

In my opinion changing the form of study is awesome because the students become motivated and probably they will get better marks.
