Independent Study 12

Today is the third week in our current four class set. The phrase of the week is, "it's about the journey, not the destination." We use this phrase to describe loving the process or the activity and not the result. For example, "Teaching English is about the journey, not the destination."

Our reading this week is about customer experience and our listening material is about a YA author. Please listen for the vocabulary words and create your own examples.
