A Monologue on a Controversial Issue (NA2 2009 EOI Getafe)

"Post-coital Pill and Abortion", by Eloísa B. Marco. Eloísa got her Avanzado 2 certificate, a B2, in June 2009. She kindly agreed to shooting this video in support of EOI state-run language shools. This happened in September 2009. In this monolog(ue) she gives her views on the postcoital pill and abortion. Thanks, Eloísa!

A Note: This video is blurred and also kind of jumpy. When Eloísa mentions the topic she's going to talk about, it sounds as if she makes a mistake, but she actually didn't. That happens again somewhere else. My apologies... The camera we used is old and the heads were really dirty. We just bought a cleaning tape, so we really hope future videos will be better!

Message from YT: Eloísa, congratulations! :) Your English is so natural! Of course, you need to brush up some minor mistakes, but then, we're all lifelong learners, aren't we? :) I also wanted to congratulate you for your topic, and for how you tackle it. It is really complicated to talk about controversial issues, and also about issues we care about, and your piece is an example of how much good a sensitive rational mind can do!

Dear Eloísa,

We would like to thank you for your outstanding work on this monologue.

If you like, you can post your self-correction on the mistakes you know you made, because you were somewhat nervous! And the first!!!

Congratulations for having passed the 2008-09 Avanzado 2 course with such good marks. You can certainly pass a C1 exam, too! Go for it!

Best wishes

I will only write:
