Welcome to English class! Before we start, I want

you to take some time to review what you did in English class last
year. The following exercises will help you revise important
grammar and vocabulary topics. And, if there is something you
don’t remember or didn’t learn, we can work together to build a
strong basis for what’s to come!

Brace yourself,
