My English teacher is great! She lived in the UK for a year and she often speaks to us 1) on/about life
there. She always speaks 2) to/about us in English and that really helps us too. We do lots of interesting
things in class sometimes we 3) translate/listen English pop songs. We do the easy bits and our
teacher 4) explains/means the difficult bits to us. Sometimes our teacher invites her English-speaking
friends into our class to talk 5) to/at us about different things. We cant always 6) understand/hear
everything they say but we enjoy it anyway. Last year she invited a Scottish friend to the classroom
he 7) pronounced/meant words in a very interesting way! I think there are a lot of English words which
are difficult to 8) say/speak. Our teacher often asks us to listen and 9) repeat/understand. I think its
