Episode 104 I NEED TO QUARANTINE FOR FOU...

BRENT
About this episode

In this English lesson I tell about how I came into contact with a colleague who tested positive for COVID.  Because of this, I will need to quarantine for fourteen days, missing the first day of a new school year for the first time in my career. Teachers had only been back for a few days, and this happens. Students hadn't even arrived.   

I also explain the English terms: jarring, "I know a guy," and "the unknowns."   Thankfully, I am feeling really well. I think I was safe, but will keep you updated if things change.
