Information

Resources

I've put some writing resources online; by now they're only FCE resources, but I think they are usable for you nonetheless.

Registration for exams

All necessary information can be found on the BC website, namely:

Computer-based Practice Tests

Computer-based Practice Tests are available for download on http://www.cambridgeesol.org/exams/exams-info/computer-based-practice.html

The Corpora

You can find the British National Corpus and other corpora here: corpus.byu.edu. There is a lot of help on the website, or you can always ask me to help you to use it.

From the Lessons

You can review the whiteboard contents.
6^th Apr: Try to form nouns from adjectives: long, high, wide, deep, and from the verb weigh. Then, try to find more similar nouns :-)
I'll put here the key for the paper you got as soon as I rewrite it into PC.

16^th Feb: We did 3 parts of CPE Listening (and are going to continue woth the last part next time because all of you did very well!)
