First Assignment: Videos.

Hi there,

These videos will help you remember the topics you studied in your previous courses. Here is what you have to do:

1.- Watch & listen to the videos AT LEAST 2 times.
2.- Write the questions the interviewer asks the people on your notebook.   If the question appears many times, you only need to write it one time.
3.- Watch the video again and make sure you repeat the questions. Your pronunciation will be much better if you follow this rule!
