REVIEW TIME!!!

Hello, everyone. 
Congratulations, we're almost there! 
I hope you feel you've learned some useful English this year, so that when you need to ask directions, order a meal or talk to some gorgouus guy/girl about your favourite bands you'll find the right words.
It's time to review now, so I'm going to be posting material on the blog, with answers included at the bottom of the page, (although upside down), which will make you pretty independent of your teacher unless there are answers that you don't understand. In that case, make sure to ask me about them in class, 'cos if you don't understand you can be sure some of your classmates would also find clarification useful.
Looking forward to those questions.
Regards.
Tom.
