Do you want your Level 4 Certificate? Wednesday is the last day to sign up for the test.
If you want a Level 4 certificate but still need to pass one more test (listening, speaking, writing, or listening), you must give me your yellow score card by Wednesday. Then I can schedule you to take the test with a Level 4 teacher.
May is coming
A German poem:
Im wunderschönen Monat Mai,
als alle Knospen sprangen,
da ist in meinem Herzen
die Liebe aufgegangen.
(In the wonderful month of May,
When all the buds were bursting open,
My love burst forth from my heart.)
No, it's not yet May, but nature can still inspire.
