TASK 3
Thank you for calling, Mr. Jones. Your message said that you can’t take the Saturday morning Spanish
class because of your new job. I’m sorry to hear about this difficulty with your schedule, but I think this
problem is easy to solve. You said that you’re available on Monday and Tuesday afternoons. We have an
advanced Spanish class you can attend on either of those days. Please choose which day you want and let
me know. I hope this will work well for you.
