Description

Hi everyone,
Today we will talk about musicals!
After a brief discussion, we will read about a well-known musical - Mamma Mia - before listening to one of the songs from it.
We will look at some useful words and expressions from this song and try to use them in our own speech, in order to sound natural. I recommend watching other musicals, as they are a great way to practice listening and vocabulary, as well as being a fun and joyful way to learn!
I can't wait to see you there!
