Detalles de la lección

In this lesson we will use the classic English children's book 'The Secret Garden', written by Frances Hodgson Burnett in 1911. Although over 100 years old, this delightful book remains very popular among children & adults and its themes are still relevant today. (I will provide a copy of the text for you).
 
We can use this book in a relaxed and enjoyable way to improve all aspects of English for intermediate and advanced levels. 
 
Here are some of the possibilities for how you might wish to use this lesson time:
 
1) I can read aloud, and you can simply enjoy listening to the story.
2) I can read aloud and you can repeat after me to practice rhythm, intonation and pronunciation.
3) You can read aloud to practice your reading & speaking confidence
4) You can read a chapter in your own time and then use the lesson time to discuss any new and unfamiliar vocabulary and grammar. 
 
Any approach to reading this book will be beneficial, we do not have to stick to one way and I will be guided by what you feel is most helpful in each lesson. 
 
This lesson is also available as a 7-day lesson pack at a substantial discount because a higher frequency is particularly beneficial when reading a novel. 
 
Here is a short extract to give you an idea of the reading level:
 
"During the confusion and bewilderment of the second day Mary hid herself in the nursery and was forgotten by every one. Nobody thought of her, nobody wanted her, and strange things happened of which she knew nothing. Mary alternately cried and slept through the hours. She only knew that people were ill and that she heard mysterious and frightening sounds. Once she crept into the dining-room and found it empty, though a partly finished meal was on the table and chairs and plates looked as if they had been hastily pushed back when the diners rose suddenly for some reason. The child ate some fruit and biscuits, and being thirsty she drank a glass of wine which stood nearly filled. It was sweet, and she did not know how strong it was. Very soon it made her intensely drowsy, and she went back to her nursery and shut herself in again, frightened by cries she heard in the huts and by the hurrying sound of feet. The wine made her so sleepy that she could scarcely keep her eyes open and she lay down on her bed and knew nothing more for a long time."
