I like, I don’t like

Let's talk today about the food we like and the one we don't like. In the previous video we see that the elephant likes apples but does not like peaches, the pig likes carrots but does not like potatoes... And the shark likes pirates!

To be, or not to be

You know that the verb «to be» means «ser» (I am a student) or «estar» (I am in the kitchen). It isn’t difficult. You can be sure that you don’t need a thinking cap. ;-) 

Look at its affirmative, interrogative and negative forms.

If you would like to study and practise it, you can do it in these links: curso-ingles.com and english4u.com.
