Modal verbs: Must vs Have to (Basic Level A2 / Intermediate Level B1)
Dear students,
Welcome to a new post on the blog! On this occasion, I’d like to explain the differences between these two modal verbs, Must and Have to.
Although they seem to be very similar to the ones in Spanish, please be careful and don’t be deceived. They are not exactly the same and their use in both affirmative and negative sentences is different from the ones you could imagine. Also, remember, in order to remember those differences, you need to practise a lot, so I have included some activities.
And here are the activities,

Enjoy!
Relative clauses (Levels A2 / B1)
Dear students,
Today I’d like to share with the secret to the perfect story. Relative clauses!
What is a relative clause? It’s the extra information and details we can include in our written composition. With all this information the sentences are longer and more complex. Look at the following examples:
- John gave me a blue ball.
- The ball which John gave me is blue.
As you can see, the sentences have the same meaning and the same information, but they seem very different. Why? Just simply because of the relative clause. And, what are the main relative pronouns? The main relative pronouns are who, which, where, when, whose, why and how.
Here you are some videos with a very good explanation which I hope you enjoy.
And here is an exercise which I’m sure will be of help.
