Hello!
I hope you've enjoyed your summer holiday and will come refreshed and eager to work and learn something new. This is a short post to remind you to bring your summer reading books (either paper or e-books) and vocabularies with you on Monday.
I will be adding necessary materials over the month. But you can already download a short e-version of the 1st topic from the textbook if you wish. You should also get a printed book from the library. I hope you can bring e-books from the 1st year - they will be useful.
