Hello everybody!
Ready to start this Tuesday?
Yeeeeees! 💪🏻
Come on! Cheer up! (Two phrasal verbs 😉)
Today Brandon will be online for you to solve your questions about anything: Modal verbs for deduction/probability, present perfect continuous, the second part in the Ket or Pet speaking test, your personal strong and weak points you have in your speaking, whatever!
A super good question for him could be: What grammar do I have to use in parts 2 and 3 in Ket/pet speaking test?
For example: Modal verbs for deduction are good for part 2 and any other activity where you have to interpret a picture or what someone is doing.
If you want to talk with him click on the links below at 11:00 or 12:30. It is voluntary! He’s in the other side of the screen to help you.
