LYRICS TRAINING

This is a new link I want you to try to practice English through songs. This time you choose the song, the level, probably medium, and you have a set time to guess the missing words while you listen to the song.  IWhen you don´t guess it stops and time counts against you. Winners are the ones guessing words in the shortest time. If you like you can have a go with Adele´s Rolling in the Deep song 
or and older hit : Tainted love.
 Good luck and see if you beat the score.!

ANECDOTES AND MISUNDERSTANDINGS

Watch Luis Piedrahita, the famous magician and showman tell an anecdote that happened to him in his experience as English speaker. As further practice try to retell the anecdote using the corrections made by the interviewer. I hope you enjoy it. Feel free to post your impressions.
