🇬🇧​ English Learning Stations: Boost Your Skills!

 🚀 Welcome to Your Learning Journey

In the coming weeks, we will work with learning stations. 

You will work in groups of 4, and at some stations you will work together, 

and at others you will work individually.

You have 20 minutes per station to boost your English skills.
