Well summarised Jennifer. Here are a few notes:
> center is the US spelling, which is fine to use, but in writing if you choose to use American English, you must use it consistently. Just something to be aware of!
Suggest instead of: As the major advantage the infraestructure is already there and …
> The major advantages are that the infrastructure is already there and ….
> spelling constrains ❌ = constraints ✅
Good job 👍

Interesting perspective Susanna. We will discuss!
Vocabulary is excellent
Can you try and fix these?

Well written Anna-Maria.
Some suggestions:
> Instead of to construct a brand image, we say to build a brand image
> However, Luca still doubts that their budget probably doesn’t stretch that far. Because we are using ‘doubt’ it is a sort of prediction, so the future tense sounds more natural here. Also we wouldn’t use the double negative:
However, Luca still doubts that their budget will stretch that far.
> To Lucas’s doubts I suggest: In answer to Lucas’s doubts
> This isn’t wrong: … before it’s too trendy and expensive. If you add ‘gets‘ it sounds even better: … before it gets too trendy and expensive.
Let me know if you need any clarifications! 🤗

Good Carlos, well written!
Let’s see if we can iron out some errors:
> I do agree in the fact that this is a mania > wrong preposition
> …. since a large amount of population has a good understanding of this language. > missing an article
> In my opinion, provided that lots of people know a concrete language, global communication would be at ease. I suggest: would be easier? Be at ease means to feel calm and relaxed
Have a go and see if you can fix the above

Top marks on this @Lu_Corde well done:
✅ 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
Let’s have a look at some corrections:
> missing article: Emma Taggart describes the main milestones of THE life and artistic career of the Polish painter Tamara the Lempicka.
> During THE 20s and In THE 30s
> … and moves to THE United States
> word order: The success brings also…. > sounds better like this: The success also brings ….
Grammatically, also can be put in lots of different places in a sentence, but changing its place will also change the meaning and emphasis of the sentence. It’s difficult to learn this as it’s a very subtle difference, but a good way to try is to basically put also next to or as close as possible to the word that you are highlighting.

Just these few things:

> but right now is still under the radar, > but right now IT is still under the radar,
> sceptic > sceptical

🙏 You’re very welcome!

Thanks for sharing Gloria. I hope you are no longer ashamed of your accent, but I completely understand how you may have felt intimidated, especially at the beginning.
> Top points for your use of vocabulary esp. discriminated against and looked down on – good job.
I suggest this tweak to your last sentence:
Not sure if this is the case for everyone but in Latin groups, it is very likely that you will be discriminated against when speaking in English. or … it is very likely that one will be discriminated against when speaking in English.

Beautifully put Susanna!
