Posted by Guys, we have finally reached the conclusion of Season 1 (Elementary Level). I hope everyone learned quite a bit a long the way, and if you had any questions, you definitely fired them away at me.
However, now we’re moving onto the Pre-Intermediate level. This will be longer and a little bit more difficult.
