My first lesson

Sounds, pronouncing correctly. Suggestions for books and what to review during the week. Meaning of " O, OS, A, AS. She was very kind and a very knowledgeable teacher. We also discussed the A2 test, availability and where I would take it. She told me that because of my age I wouldn't need to take the entire test which I was very happy about.
