La tercera semana repaso!

Seeing as class 17 was a short one and the fact that these days I am anti work and study at the weekend, I went ahead with the Bueno, entonces weekly review lesson. As all good reviews should be Jimena briefly covered all of the topics which she had attempted to teach to David during the past week......with such topics being, personal descriptions, ropa, colores, adjetivos, meses, estaciones del año, la clima y el verbo gustar! And as appears to be the norm with these reviews the topics were reviewed through the format of games, which make the process of learning Spanish less intense and often somewhat more enjoyable.

Also learnt today, which can be confusing to the learner, that it is the norm to here people referring to the language of Spanish as both Espanol and Castellano, and I was once told by a former student of mine about Castilian language.....however like David on many occasions in today’s class, my mind wandered and I still have no idea of the differences and reasons.....for that I will stand by the simpler Espanol!

In general a good weeks review even though both the student and profesora seemed a little absent minded, perhaps due to Jimena conducting the class from the comfort of her jacuzzi, and should this situation contain any element of truth then I fully understand David's waywardness. In my eyes the weekend begins Viernes por la tarde so three full days of practising possibilities before restarting on Lunes with the fourth week of Bueno, entonces.

Enjoy.
