Okay, what can I say? I’m busy. I know it may sound like a rather poor excuse but the truth is… researching all my jokes takes up most of my time I got. So, now you know my secret: I can't really improvise a joke. I use jokes I find on the internet and I rehearse them so I can slip them into my classes and pass them off as material of my own.

Ok.. seriously, I am busy. Honestly. The exams are round the corner and, as you probably know, it's my duty to take care of the technical side of things (checking computers, editing and burning CDs and DVDs and that kind of stuff). It's time-consuming and not as fun as teaching you guys but someone's gotta do it, right?


Anyhow, I decided you may get a kick out this on-line English test. Regardless of your EOI level it will certainly boost your self-esteem quite a bit. Trust me on this.

Of course I also have news. C1 students! Do not forget that being an EOI student this year does not automatically guarantee you will have a place in October (should you choose to come back). The official registration process should start sometime in July.

More stuff, for those of you intermediate students that didn't come to class the day we discussed the Scottish accent you may want to check out this classic (and hilarious) clip which comes to show how complicated pronunciation is even among native speakers!
