Hey, I just saw your giveaway on my emails and I just found out about these blogs as well. They seem very helpful because they analyze different topics each time and we can focus on new grammar and vocabulary and also see examples as well. This one, for example, talking about the weather was always a difficult topic for me so I appreciate this extra help. 😊
