Hi! My name is Brent Miller. I am based in Cordoba, Spain and I’ve been teaching English for over 25 years to adults, children and teenagers of all levels. I’m originally from Seattle (USA) and I did a post graduate studies in language education. I love teaching, especially the B1 and B2 levels, so that’s why I decided to write this blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you are studying at the B1 or B2 level, you have come to the right place. In B1-B2 English<\/strong>, you’ll find posts about the Cambrdige Preliminary Exam, the First Certificate exam, grammar & vocabulary, reading, writing and speaking tips, and hints for better studying. I’ll also post free exercises and quizzes for you to practice on your own. I plan to use it as a resource for my own students, and I hope you enjoy it, too!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
