Informal Letter: A Weekend Visit to My City

Informal: I'm really happy to hear that you are going to visit my city next weekend. I think you are going to have a great time because there are many interesting things to do. First of all, you should visit the town centre and the main square; there are some beautiful buildings and small shops where you can buy souvenirs. You can also go to the local park, especially if the weather is good. If you like sports, we could go cycling or play football together. For lunch, I recommend a traditional Spanish restaurant because you can try typical food such as paella or Spanish omelette. In the evening, there are several cafés and places where we can have something to drink and talk. I think Saturday is the... Continue reading "Effective English Writing Samples for Students" »

Reflections on Daily Life and Language

Yesterday, I was walking through the city centre when I saw a boy playing football alone. I approached him and asked if he wanted to play with me, but he told me he couldn't because he was waiting for his friends. I have played football every Saturday for two years, but today I am not playing because I am studying for an exam. Tomorrow, I will go to the football field and will probably be training all afternoon. If it rains, we will play inside the sports hall. If it were sunny, I would play better because I like the fresh air.

Have you ever played football with foreigners? Would you come play with us one day?
