For her next lesson, Sophia was assigned homework to prepare and present a United States legend in Spanish.

Paola and Juscelia's English lesson focused on motivation, specifically distinguishing between intrinsic and extrinsic types. Following this, they delved into vocabulary relevant to retail sales positions.

Paola and a learner engaged in Spanish conversation, focusing on vocabulary related to hobbies, daily routines, and cultural topics. The learner, who calls Concord home, watched a short video clip in Spanish and was introduced to TED Ed videos as a learning resource. Paola suggested watching videos with Spanish subtitles to improve comprehension and planned to continue practicing with similar videos in future lessons.

Paola and Gleicy dedicated their recent English lesson to enhancing various skills.
