Author’s Acknowlodgements
While writing this series, the author has often been supported by his
family and encouraged by God.

I dedicate this labor to my dad, Nagibe Rosti, who has always


inspired me with his words of motivation, and faith. I also thank my
Heavenly Father who has been giving me the gift of love for teaching,
and the life itself.

Sincere thanks are also due to all my friends who were around while I
was involved with this project.

Teaching is such a great and amazing work and that’s my thing,


for sure. - Nagibe Rosti

Life is a gift, and it offers us the privilege, opportunity,


and responsibility to give something back by becoming
more.

I used to... Conversation Practicing Conversation Practicing
Developing
four skills.
Oral:
Oral: Producing sentences according to the vocabulary, using for
this activity most of the time in class. More than 50 % of the time. Be
careful with the correct pronounciation of the words. Encourage the
students to produce the sentences aloud and with entusiasm.

Reading:
Since the very first moment the student has a contact with and that
skill reading will improve as the lesson will be presented. By making
the translations according to the material you’ve received in class,
no further. Translate the sentences in «chunks», not word by word,
because it may be a serious problem in the next books.

Writing:
It takes it part with the reading as well. Translating in the same
way you’ve done from English to Portuguese, now on the contrary.
Translate the sentences in «chunks» not word by word.

Listening:
Here it goes! This is the most important activity of all. The better you
listen, the better you speak. I’ts been proved that who listens well has
greater chances of speaking better too. So pay attention carefully to
the teacher as he says the sentences by the end of the classes.

Self Correction
You didn’t have homeworks to be done in the book 1 and 2, but you have now, and the corrections for those
exercices is done in class with the teacher’s supervision.
