Learning English - Words in the News - Stagecoach

Learning English - Words in the News - Stagecoach

What do you think they use old trams for in Mexico City?





A BBC short video that firstly introduces 5 new words, the presenter then makes the video report explaining what the Mexicans use old trams for.  The 5 words are subtitled as they are used.  The video is then replayed with a full transcript which you can read. Finally you have the opportunity to use the 5 words learnt in a new context as a gapfill exercise.

Keep a note of the new vocabulary that you learn in your vocabulary book.

Renoir's Life and Paintings - TEFL Global Resources


The Life and Paintings of Pierre Auguste Renoir



Renoir was a French Impressionist painter. He painted many portraits of children, beautiful women, friends; as well as colourful, busy events dances and parties; rural and urban landscapes and still lives. For me Renoir was an excellent all round painter. I love his work.
