Thanks for the effort you have put into this website, the material is bang on point. Surprisingly this blog is leagues ahead of any of the crappy websites supposedly dedicated to TEFL materials.
I really look forward to use your material in my my next class. Thank you very much!!
You’re very welcome. Spread the word!
Thanks a lot; all your activities are excellent
Agreed with comments above! I really like the idea about designing a cafe. Thanks indeed for sharing.
