SESSION SPEAKER: Katerin Suarez
TOPIC: My favourite animal (the cat)
These are the principle or most repeated errors from our seventh session.
Before the next session, try and focus on and master one highlight.

| 1 | We used to live in flats | We are used to living in flats |
| 2 | Cats are more comfortable for us | Cats are more convenient to us |
| 3 | I think | I think cats are cleaner than dogs See: use of the definite article at the British Council |
| 4 | It depends of your (point of view) | It depends on your (point of view) |
| 5 | Idea Damage | Idea  Damage |
How to make best use of these language highlights
Don’t try and learn them all, as if learning poetry or rules.
First, just make a mental note of them.
Then the next time you speak English, start to use them mindfully.
For example, select one and focus on it exclusively in every conversation until you get it right.
Once you have mastered it, move on to the next.
The point is not to feel overwhelmed. If you master just one from each session, you are already winning.
You can always practice more highlights later, and focus on each until you master them.
(If you are able, you could try and master one grammar and one pronunciation highlight after each session.)
Enjoy!
