Something to never miss out when writing: Punctuation.


Hi everyone! I hope you are still enjoying the amazing videos offered by The Teacher. Today I would like to tackle a very worrying issue dealing with your writing: Punctuation. I know it is a long time most of you left school and you are so much used to chatting, where commas, full-stops and all those little annoying bits and bobs are "of no use", but we must all realize that those writing marks are very important if we want to be understood. Punctuation marks are as important as words themselves and their proper use may be crucial for a successful writing. To get a whole range of useful tips about punctuation just go to this site "How to use English Punctuation". They also provide lots of how-tos on different matters, check it out!!

  1. Hi there, Carlos dear!

    Long time no speak... Life's been hectic these days. Hopefully things will get back in place soon.
    Just wanted to let you know that I'm starting a wiki to let people know about the blogs the EOIs are creating all around Spain. Would you like to include yours?
    This is the addresss:
    http://blogs-eois.wikispaces.com
    It's still a project in its very early beginnings, but we can make it bigger.
    Hope you like the idea.
    Greetings from the round island

  2. Hi Laura,

    Glad to hear from you, you're right about the hectic days we are having. But that wouldn't stop us from setting up new projects like the wiki. Of course, I want to take part in this adventure and I will help to spread the news. Hope to hear from you soon. By the way I have set a google site for my students of intermediate and advanced. Take a look at it let me know what you think. the link is: http://sites.google.com/site/carlosmartinpage/

    Carlos
