Adele: Set Fire to the Rain

This is the song we listened to last week: Set Fire To The Rain, by Adele. I hope you enjoy listening to it again. Remember singing English songs is an excellent way of learning this language.

Booking a holiday

Here you have a dialogue created by two of your classmates. It is very useful in order to practise for the oral exam because you will be able to see how to book a holiday at a travel agency with all the different stages and how to inform the customer in a proper way. Thank you, Carlota & Adrián! :-)

Parque de Europa 2013

We were looking forward to going sightseeing and in the end we decided to visit quite a lot of cities in Europe.
We (Travel Agencies and Events Management) invited our classmates of 2nd year of Tourist Accommodation Management (Afternoon) and 1st year of Travel Agencies and Events Management.
We (both groups of second year) had to speak about the countries and monuments whose replicas can be found in Parque de Europa. We were twitting and taking some photos. Though we were a bit nervous, we enjoyed it a lot. Have a look!

On the other hand, you also have the weather forecast by AEMET on the blog, on the right.
