My blog entries are not to replace an English lesson but to complement your learning. I enjoy giving some understanding from a different perspective. For this reason, I don’t always give exhaustive grammatical explanations of the language unit represented in the image. I simply give some classroom commentary: interesting things I’d normally say to students during lessons. This type of information would be most interesting to learners at B2+ levels as described in the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). In fact, the language level of the posts are targeted to B2+, but anyone is welcome to read them. A learner at a lower level will still receive some benefit—just with a challenge!
