Q

SER vs ESTAR
You will see some cards that ask which verb to use. This is important because you cannot correctly conjugate the verb until you know which one to use.

A

Start by focusing on getting the verb correct, then later, try to say the sentence correctly.
Mark this card as a 5 so you don’t see this card again for a while.
