Hi Marilda!

We will look at this together during our lesson!

I would like to organize a meeting with you about DenverX Project. ✅

It’s important to decided who runs comms between London and Paris offices and who handles recruitment and who is taking lead on logistics.

Good Marilda

Our monthly staff meeting will be ON May 8th at 10.00.

❗️Remember, we need to use capital letters with months and days

If you have to add some itemS,

❗️‘Some’ means it is automatically plural

If you CAN’T participate, send someone from your department.

❗️This is referring to the future, so we need to use ‘can’t’ – couldn’t would refer to the past

[Kerin]

Well done Marilda 🙌

I have made some small corrections:

I’d like to inform you THAT our monthly staff meeting will be CHANGED to May 8th at 10.00.

Please check ❌(delete: it) the agenda attached and let me know if you have anything to add.

For any reason if you CAN’T join this meeting ….

❗️ If you can’t … because we are referring to the future. If you couldn’t refers to the past

Thank you for letting us know. The link has been restored

Exceptionally well written. I wonder if we should replace intimacy with privacy?

[Kerin]

This is really well done Antonio, you have used the vocabulary in a very nice way and some very nice constructions too (e.g neither…nor)

Let’s have a closer look:

> As an example, I´ll explain a short story. > here I’d use ‘tell’ instead of ‘explain’ because tell collocates with story (tell a story, tell a lie etc)

>I panicked and I unsuccessfully tried to find them ON the pavement at the risk of being RUN over by a car or pedestrian.

>Then, another terrible idea struk me: (spelling) STRUCK

>maybe I was been the victim of a pickpocket. (grammar) had been (You will cover this in the Tell Interesting stories course)

> I can say that it was a Rockie mistake! (spelling) rookie

[Kerin]

Well observed

[Kerin]

Perfect Sandra 💪

(All prepositions correct too! Top!)

Hi Olivia, this is summarised very well, excellent English.

✅ you used your own words

✅ you identified the main idea

✅ you found relevant ideas & omitted irrelevant details

✅ you kept the meaning the same

✅ you used attributive tags

✅ you kept your opinion out of it

Minimal corrections to make. Have a look and let me know if you have any queries:

> The “Made in Italy” badge is now widely accepted as a symbol of quality AND authenticity on a global scale.

> Since ❌ FOR ✅ years, there has been evidence of the reality of large European companies producing in Asia or the east of the continent to save costs by abusing their labor force.

I agree, definitely a good idea to be aware of different accents, (not only to improve our language skills) but also to be more inclusive and enrich our cultural experiences.

A tweak to make: focused in American accent > should be: focused ON American accentS (or focused on THE American accent, although which one?!🙄)

[Kerin]

This is great work Sandra! Well done 🙌

[Kerin]

Perfect! ⭐

[Kerin]

Tone and language is correct. There are a few little grammar issues to iron out:

> When we spoke last week you mentioned that you had BEEN HAVING (or WERE HAVING) a stressful time (You will study this grammar in your course ‘Tell Stories’, but if it is problematic maybe we can use one of our lessons to go over it)

> the verb promise needs to be followed by the infinitive: not: you promised sending me but you promised to send me

> After checking my emails I have not seen any document from you YET.

Do let me know if you need anything clarified.

[Kerin]

Perfect Sandra. Excellent

Dear Olivia,

This is very well written, well-balanced and expressed clearly. Well done! I love how you have incorporated the new vocabulary into what you have written too. Keep up the good work. 🤗

Please review the corrections I’ve made (in bold) and please let me know if you need any clarification.

2 Proud Pups is Elena’s baby business. She wanted to create all-natural dog care productS that will not irritate her dogs. She invested her savings and grew her staff and product line THROUGH/OVER THE years. From what I could gathered❌ (gather ✅), 2 Proud Pups revenues are flat, and Elena is even burning out, beside ❌ (BESIDES + comma or FURTHERMORE✅) with her fourth baby coming she could no longer take care of her business.

Elena is hesitating between two options.

From one side, sell the company to a competitor. (🙌 Suggest: On the one hand, she could sell the company to a competitor) I am a bit reluctant to recommend (Excellent😍!!) her to sell the company. Indeed, with this option, she could gain a generous cash buyout and a good percentage of merged equity shares, but she will also risk losing the control of her company over the direction the competitor will want to head (example of using chemical ingredients, selling directly to consumers).(😍 Excellent structure and vocab) Plus, she will not be able to come back (🙌 or: she will lose the opportunity to come back later….) later if she thinks she is mentally ready. I just do not think (Excellent😍) this option is the one she can choose.

From the other side, (🙌 Suggest: On the other hand,) the advantages of hiring a new CEO are that Elena retainS her majority shareholder position while stepping back from the business.

She will also be sure that her vision for 2Proud Pups will remain the same with
innovations. The fact that the potential new CEO wants to target Amazon, Chewy,
and Petco is not a pitfall, Elena could turn it TO her favor to accrue the
production and so her revenues. I would say the pros definitely outweigh

the cons. (Excellent😍)
