ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
The process of implementing new strategies and materials in
English teaching that meets the expectations and needs of a
specific population was our main concern when we started this
journey of planning and developing a set of activities for our
language learners . We really want to thank the coordinators
and all language instructors at SENA for the insights and
intellectual production that is included in this material. This was
a cooperative process that aims to provide a minimum spectrum
of activities that our apprentices can take advantage of to
improve their English competences.
