Online Class Notes (Jesse)

Writing exercise

Last Sunday, my daughter and I talked about the English class with Jesse.
First, she tried to show me some details of the Mr. Bean’s video, actually it is a kind of improvement but the grammar and vocabularies weren’t still good.
She also said that you talked about how to use third person singular, I gave her some examples to understand this point; like “took sb to do sth” She can answered me by simple English
As you mentioned, children need more encourage for their parents, I have to change my thinking in this way right now.
