Quedada con alumnos Intermedio 2

Chinos, esta noche nos veremos en Corralejo. Espero que se animen, creo que el plan es ir a picar algo y luego ir al Rock Island bar donde esta noche actúa mi amigo.

Si no me equivoco, hemos quedado hoy a las  10 9:30 en el BBVA de la avenida principal.

Un abrazo a todos.

Type 1/ First Conditional (real present)	If+ P.simple	Future (will)	They are used to express real or very probable situations in the present or future. I.e: If we work hard, we’ll finish the Project on time.
Type 2/ Second Conditional (unreal present)	If+ Past Simple or past continuous	Would/could/might + infinitive (without to)	They are used to express imaginary situations which are contrary to facts in the present and, therefore, are unlikely to happen in the present or future. They are also used to give advice. I.e: If I didn’t have to work such long hours, I wouldn’t be so tired.
Type 3/ Third Conditionals (unreal past)	If + past perfect/ past perfect continuous	Would/could/ might+ have + past participle	They are used to express imaginary situations which are contrary to facts in the past. They are also used to express regrets or criticism. i. e: If I had been more careful, I wouldn’t have made such a big mistake.

CERTIFICACIÓN INTERMEDIO 2

Como ya saben, este año tienen sus exámenes para obtener el certificado de nivel Intermedio. Hasta el momento ya les hemos facilitado la información relativa a todo el proceso. 

El pasado martes entregamos en clase un dossier con toda la información al respecto, centrada en nuestro alumnado de la EOI Puerto del Rosario. Nuevamente, quiero recordarles que no tienen que abonar ningún tipo de tasas para examinarse, pero es IMPRESCINDIBLE que rellenen y entreguen un formulario (tal como se decía en el dossier de información de CRITERIOS DE EVALUACIÓN que se les entregó a principio de curso).

Sin entregar ese formulario NO se pueden presentar a Certificación. El último día para entregarlo es el 30 de abril, los alumnos que asistieron a clase la semana pasada, ya lo han rellenado y me lo han entregado. El formulario está a su disposición en secretaría, dónde pueden rellenarlo y entregarlo.
