…………………….

– Don’t forget there is an appendix in ‘Open World‘ called ‘English for Spanish speakers’ that can be used as a kind of workbook to clarify and strengthen those language points which are usually difficult for Spanish learners.

– Our Webteca EOI may help you find online links to practise the skills you feel are weaker at: https://eoioviedo.org/webteca-ingles/

– If you wish to do further practice and strengthen your SPEAKING and MEDIATION skills, why not try some of the exercises and activities uploaded for B2.2? See B2.2 English for Summertime post for resources and Open World recommended sections. You will also find some exercises to practice the other skills.

Note that some of the topics and grammar points there will be seen next year. Choose preferably those whose topics match what you saw in units 1 to 6. Working by yourself as you are, you can spend as long as you need to make the most of it with a view to next year’s syllabus.

Please have a look at the contents of the B2.2 post mentioned, and also at the post B2 Certificación: general info and tips, if you are studying for Certificación exam. They might be of your interest and, hopefully, be of help.
