English 8... The End...

Well. in my opinion was a very good experience because we can use computer to help us to make the homework, and the use of blogs online helps us to finish in less time.

On the other hand, sometimes the classes became boring, maybe because of my style, I'm not a big fan of English classes. I like it, but on some level. But Sometimes, the classes were fun and I enjoy with new friends as they all seem nice. In english 8 I learned to use somethings that maybe I did not know at all, I learned not only english also about the world too and what is happening in this moment because the teacher was trying to make classes as free as possible to make us feel at ease. Finally, in my opinion, all this time was very educational to learn the knowledge of a brilliant person as well as my friends.

In conclusion, everything was splendid, I learned a lot about writing in english with my friends and teacher and I will always carry this nice experience in my thoughts...

And most importantly... I approve english 8!!

The tournament proper begins with a group stage of 32 teams, divided into 8 groups. Seeding is used whilst making the draw for this stage, whilst teams from the same country may not be drawn into groups together. Each team meets the others in its group home and away in a round-robin format. The top two teams from each group progress to the round of 16, which commences the knock-out tournament. The third team enters the Europa League.
For this stage, one group's winners play against another group's runners-up, and teams from the same country may not be drawn against each other. From the quarter-finals onwards, the draw is entirely random, with country protection no longer in force.
The group stage is played through the autumn, whilst the knock-out stage starts after a winter break. The knock-out ties are played in a two-legged format, with the exception of the final. This is typically held in the final two weeks of May.
UEFA awards €3 million to each team that qualifies for the UEFA Champions League, plus €2.4 million for participating in the Group stage. A win in the campaign is worth €600,000 and a draw is worth €300,000.
