Twenty-Second Week

    Hello everyone! I have some exciting news— I received the first correction for my article sent to the Brazilian Journal of Microbiology. I am thrilled because there were just a few easy corrections, and the reviewer praised my work. This is the reason for my delay in posting this week; I was busy correcting my article. However, I have finished it, and I am back with more focus.

Are you ready for another week of hard work and determination? Let's do this! Let's go!!!

Reading, Listening, speaking

In recent weeks, the newspapers have been covering the Israel-Palestine conflict daily. I would like to strongly recommend some incredible texts that discuss the entire history between these two peoples. There are 19 texts for you to explore. In my opinion, one of the best things in the world is gaining knowledge. As the saying goes, you can never know too much.

You must read daily, below are my fonts for reading

👉Reading materials

Tip: Words I don't understand, I write on Post-its and later I translate and practice pronouncing them out loud while listening to natives on https://youglish.com. I create phrases to better cement the words in my brain. A tip for your listening is to write what you heard (Lingua.com).

Conversation with natives

Hellotalk (app phone)

Here, you can learn from native speakers, enhance your writing skills through chat, and practice speaking and listening during calls (if you want). I'm loving this app. You can help people learn your language native too. This app has both a free and a premium version. 

Stay focused. Bye-bye.👻💀
