HOMEWORK:
Learn the banking vocabulary.


NB
Some Grammar to remember:

The following 3 tenses in English are important (the rest you can do without):
Present tense
Future tense
Simple past (imperfect)
In German we mostly use the perfect tense in the past when we speak, in English rather the imperfect:
Gestern habe ich Kuchen gegessen. / Yesterday I ate cake.

Avoid using the continuous tense!!!!
ONLY use it if you want to indicate what you are doing right now:
I am reading!  (this text)
