Second Edition

Category: Freelance Teaching

Another little surprise today. We’re using In Company intermediate for one of my classes and the company is buying a copy for all the students. As it was sold out at the local English bookshop, the company ordered copies and they came in today, and surprise surprise!, it’s a “new edition”. It’s been changed around enough to make it awkward for me to keep on using the old recording.

    

I checked at the bookshop and they still haven’t got the updated CD, so this puts me in a bind: my students have new books but I can’t get the listenings for it. They couldn’t tell me how much it costs either, but I imagine it’ll be in the ballpark of 50 euros along with a teacher’s book (which I don’t really need). The course book costs 32 euros, so looks like the damages will be upwards of 80 euros for the whole shebang. Oh well, I guess this is my little stimulus package to help reactivate the economy, though I may have to do some deficit spending. So much for thrift.
