ADEC - ABRIL

Here, you will introduce yourself and talk about your company (real or imaginary).

Watch this video first. It teaches you how to talk about your work:



Now, using your facebook information as the basis for your introduction, write a paragraph introducing yourself and talking about your company. Try to use expressions from the video.
Here's an example:

Hi, 
My name is Denilson. I'm from Itatiba, Brazil, but I live in Campinas. I'm 32 years old.
I studied Linguistics at Unicamp and Applied Linguistics at the University of Wisconsin, in Madison, the USA.  I have about 829 friends and 95 photos on Facebook. 
I am a professor at Unimep. I work in Piracicaba and sometimes in Santa Bárbara d'Oeste. I work in the Human Sciences Department. I do most of my work on the English Teaching field. I work with students from different courses. 
Unimep is a University in the state of São Paulo. It offers courses in several areas such as Law, International Relations, Letters (Portuguese and English), Translation, Nutrition, Engineering, and many others. Unimep is about 38 years old and it has a very good reputation. I enjoy working there because I learn a lot from my colleagues and my students.

The deadline for this ADEC is April 30th.

Workbook - Business Result

Hello, 

Um dos livros que uso com vocês se chama "Business Result".

A primeira unidade que fizemos veio dele.

Se quiser praticar o que vimos, baixe o arquivo abaixo (clique na imagem) e rode o CDROM no seu micro. Vale a pena, pois são exercícios rápidos que podem ajudar quem estiver começando no inglês, ou quem queira rever esses aspectos básicos do inglês.

Have fun! :)
