A very warm welcome from Christopher today. He has perfectly understood my goals and we have found a common ground related to the topics we will work on. Can't wait to start the next lesson.

Today we started studying phrasal verbs. I enjoyed the lesson to learn phrasal verbs because I always wanted to learn more. Hopefully I can learn new phrasal verbs more next time. Thank you very much. See you next time!
