THE FEBRUARY UPDATE

1) New contact number
As you, I hope, already know I have changed my number. It's 739-907-487.
The old one is no longer in use. Please mind that this change affects our Whatsapp correspondence as well. 
2) Tests
Term 1 tests will be held in the  first week of March . They will include everything we have covered from September. Please don't be surprised. 
3) No classes on Saturday
I am not able to offer you any of additional classes, conversations or catch-ups on Saturdays at the moment.
4) The tandem idea
I want to encourage you to step out a bit and look more intensively for your language partner, your lg buddy, your tandem. A person you can share your work with; exchange constructive feedback; revise vocabulary or even chat from time to time. 
I know that some of you have been already doing that; and I guess some of you need this pep talk to finally give it a go. 
Please, please do not feel forced to do that! If you are not ready - OK, give yourself some more time but also do not wait forever. 
If you can talk among yourselves and get into such collaboration - that’s perfect. If you need me to help out a bit pls fill in your agreement form. 
It’s not an obligation, it’s a step. You can take it or not. I think it’s worth trying and I wholeheartedly encourage you to take the plunge.
