I have classes in English at The Embassy Language School. I’m in a class with seven students. They are all from different countries: Japan, Brazil, Switzerland, Germany, and Italy. Our teacher’s name is Simon. He’s very funny and a very good teacher.
I live with an English family in a small, old house near the centre of town. Tom and Ann have got a daughter and a son. Their daughter, Jane, is 20. She’s a student at BrightonUniversity. Their son, John, is a software designer for a computer company. He’s 26. They’re all very friendly.
