End of year (course)

Hi! (Is anybody there?). This is my last post for this year. This was my first attempt to teach my subject using English. We are not a bilingual school and for this reason I only taught some technical English vocabulary. If I have the opportunity to teach Technologies in English next year, I will do it. That is all for now, I hope. See you next year.
