This was fun...future plans...Level 2TopicAimLanguageFocusSkillsLesson10Making plansTo talk about making plansGoing toListening, reading, speakingIf you become a free member you can download the lesson plan here:http://www.languagesoutthere.com/articles/goingtoI kept it short even though Jane had done five lessons and was prepared to talk about any of them it seemed :-)..some of them were with Chinese instructions which she felt she needed to get a better idea of some language and instructions and she mentions that in the recording. We will do the next session tomorrow. Jane is quite a low level which is great, but she is bilingual already (French and Chinese) so I would expect her to have her own internal system of how to acquire worked out fairly well in her own mind. Let's see if EOT can help her to make a quick improvement in her speaking and listening skills. [11:50:27] Janeliu: hi Jason, nice see u again :D how are you and your little boys? have they eaten?
