Episode 10: Francesco Burgio: "In life, they will tell you 'you won't make it', then you turn around and answer 'watch how it's done'."

The phrase I used from this episode comes from a quote that Francesco has on his Facebook page: "Nella vita ti diranno 'non ce la farai', allora tu girati e rispondi 'guarda come si fa'." This comes in encouragement for everyone out there who still think that speaking English is not for them. He's a police officer from Sicily who enjoys spending time with his family and friends. Francesco showed enough fluency to manage our conversation and used some great words in his interview. Although he did well, he still needs to gain more control over his grammatical resource and handle better the moments in which he needs to use Present Perfect Simple and Continuous. Other than that, I'm convinced that he's on the right track. Thank you very much, Francesco! And remember that if you want to get feedback on your speaking skills, just send me a recording.
