CHANGE OF "WEB-POSTING" POLICY:
As of today, Tuesday January 19, 2010, I'll
no longer post the "FULL WORD LIST" and the "MODEL ANSWER"
on wepsite.
Anyone who still finds the time to attend the
remaining sessions IN PERSON will, of course, be given a "HARD COPY" (or
printout)
as before!
Plus, additionally, I offer you the following "service": Anyone
who lets me know by e-mail that they are
still interested in the full word list and the model answer will
receive (via e-mail) both items as soon as
we have dealt with them in class - in other words, (normally) Tuesday
evening.
Keeping my fingers crossed for all of you
"State Exam" candidates out there,
W.E.P.
