Hi everyone, this is Deb, your english teacher. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to a new academic year.
Some general considerations to keep in mind:
Looking forward to meet you!
Wish you all the best,
Deb
Some general considerations to keep in mind:
- Our classes start tomorrow, Wednesday march 19, as scheduled.
- I will upload the course program as well as most of the course material to material docente.
- I will write a brief description of our classes objectives and activities in Novedades, so you can keep track of the course progression and access any links used in class.
- Finally, in case you need to contact me, feel free to do so by using the e-mail section in u-cursos.
Looking forward to meet you!
Wish you all the best,
Deb
