    Realmente no es que deba pensar que deba ser restringido el aprendizaje, como alumno es insano. Existe una desconexión del profesorado con el rumbo del humanismo, y la verdad es lo estricto de ser calificado y el concepto de mérito. Es exigente del Concejo Estudiantil diría un monitor. Supongo que ya debo dinero obligarte a cumplir con mis tareas, mis tareas.

    Dear Ma'am Gill, In one of your videos on accents and dialects you had mentioned that you are originally from East Midlands.Recently,i was enjoying the view of the old brick houses and the green pastures of the British countryside of East Midlands. I was very much fascinated by seeing the old brick houses with chimneys as it reminded me of my childhood days.I too used to live in the railway bunglow with my parents which were made of bricks and the bricks were visible quite distinctly from outside of the house which gave it a very decent look.We had spent quite a nice time there.Hope you too had enjoyed your childhood very nicely with your parents and family members in the brick houses and surroundings of the East Midlands. The memories of the childhood are like treasure which no one can steal !😊
