You are all very welcome to this brand-new blog!
I hope that, in these difficult and uncertain times, this blog will help us to keep in touch.
This is the textbook we’ll be using:
Open World B2 First. Self-study pack (with answers, workbook and audio files). Cambridge University Press.
There is a pack whose book includes the section English for Spanish Speakers. This is its ISBN: ISBN 978-8-490-36910-4 Student’s Book with answers (English for Spanish Speakers)
I expect to meet you regularly in the weekly lesson, especially now that the number of hours of class per week at the school has been substantially reduced. The «new norm» contemplates more homework and self-study in order to meet B2.1 requirements, and part of it will involve working on online resources or on activities uploaded to certain online educational sites that our EOI will be using.
In order to GET STARTED, please read the information below attentively, visit the links, and make sure that, as soon as possible, you get both EDUCASTUR ACCOUNT and OFFICE 365 ACCOUNT details. You’ll need them in order to use some educational online tools and applications that our EOI will be offering throughout the school year, so it is compulsory for each and every one of the students to have their own accounts.

That’s all for now. Once all of this is ready, we will be prepared to move a step further. And cross your fingers if, like myself, you are not a «techie»!
