HI EVERYONE!!
On Sunday June 9th, Brampton English Services Team will be at the Sikh Parade here in Brampton!
Come by and see Navi and Kuljot!
Ask some questions, get information about our English Classes.
Donate some coins to our school - it helps pay for photocopying and chalk for the classes.
Parade starts at 1:30 p.m. but we'll be there earlier to answer any questions and enroll you in classes!
Bring a friend!
We are a dedicated group of teachers that have set up a new free English Language School in the Springdale neighbourhood of Brampton. We are a registered charitable non-profit organization.

S.A.D.
It is winter in Canada!
What kinds of winter sports do you play?
Skiing, skating, hockey?
It is a good idea to get out and do some sports.
Did you know that 'get out' is a phrasal verb?
skiing, skating, playing.... these are all gerunds - this is a noun that looks like a verb
Try this sentence:
I like to go shopping. Which word is the gerund?
Many people don't go out much in the winter and because of the lack of sunshine they get:
S.A.D.
This is an acronym for what?
type in S.A.D. into the Google search bar and see what comes up......
(to come up is also a phrasal verb)
Don't forget..... come to class, ask a teacher and learn some more.
For information call: 416-201-1653
Classes are Monday and Wednesday evenings!
