C1 in Cadiz

As I told you in class, the EOI in Cadiz is going to offer a C1 course for the first time. If you are interested you need to pre-register NOW and show you have the B2 level (for example with the EOI certificate) before you register in June. There won´t be many places so give it a try if you feel you will have the time and energy to do it!! Good luck!

Meeting on Saturday (11, May)

Hi everyone,
we have agreed today to meet at Los Toruños´main entrance (Valdelagrana in El Puerto de Santa María) at 11:00 on Saturday 11 May to enjoy the day together. We have chosen this place because it offers many opportunities to enjoy yourself; if you bring your children/friends they could take a train to get to the bridge. You can also rent bikes in case you are interested! Bring food to make a pick-nick!
I hope to see many of you!!

DIfferent accents in English (sorry about swear words!)
