Dear David,
  There’s no problem with you staying with us, my family and I enjoyed your visit a lot so you can come back whenever you want. My family really liked you and hopes to see you soon.
  I really liked you staying with me, make sure you come for a longer period of time next time. I’ve shown you a lot of places however I would like you to see some more.
  Yes please, I would love to see those photos and I’m sure m family would too. They really like you and are asking e all the time when you are coming back.
  Sure! I would love to spend more time with you and your family. We will arrange later.
All the best,
Thomas.




We also had to write an essay with our opinion of: 

The young can learn a lot about life from older people. 

Essay


 Some people think young could learn a lot from the older; however, it is not always true, and that is what we are going to discuss about in thus essay.
 On the one hand we can say that it is true, young people can learn a lot from the elderly. This is because the older people have more experience, they had live a lot more than children or teenagers; therefore, children and teenagers do not know the same things about life that elder people know. If older people are willing to teach and young people are ready to listen it can be useful. 
  Alternatively and in my opiniion young people can learn from their own experiences . "Elderly" does not necessarily mean they are are wiser than everyone younger than them. Besides many older people learn from kids and teenagers. 
 As a result, young people can learn from older, older can learn from young and older and young both can learn on their own.

First Certificate Writing Practice

In order to practis for the First Certificate Exam in the writing part with our teacher Andrea Shejter we were told to write a story that must begin with "When he found his seat on the plane, Sam recognized the person who was sitting in the seat next to his."  But before that we made a Pre Writing Chart all together.


With this information we wrote our stories wich also have to include 

+ Simple past, Past continuos(4 examples) blue 
+ Past perfect (2 examples) red 
+ Direct speech (3 examples) purple 
+ Connectora (6 examples) orange
+ Good descriptive adjectives (7 examples) green 


When he found his seat on the plane, Sam recognized the person who was sitting in the seat next to his. Mark was drinking  coffee waiting for the plane to take off. Sam sat next to his old friend , whom he hadn't seen since the primary school.
 "Exuse me," he said "are you Mark Williams?"
 Suddenly, the man turned his head to look at him
 "Who are you? Are you working for the government?"
"No, what are you talking about? I am Sam" he said, confused "your old mate"
"Oh, I 'm sorry, Sam. I'm scared as I got myself into trouble, therefore, I'm trying to escape"
Sam was surprised about what he heard next. Mark told him he was caught vandalizing a wall, consequently he was sent to prison. However, he cuestioned why he was there for that dumb reason . 
"Well, actually..." he made a pause "I killed my wife" 
Sam was horrified so Mark mooved uncomfortably.
"The chicken was too salty." Mark admitted, before the loud announcement said:
"Please, put your seatbelts on, the plane is about to take off."
