Hi Jacopo,
I think it’s useful to see it in this balanced way; like anything I suppose there are pros and cons. I would have to agree that I like the freedom online meetings give us, but of course, we lose something online. They are great for day-to-day stuff but perhaps less effective for brainstorming or sensitive decision making… I can imagine it’s painful for Italians 😂
@j.artini this is well-written and expressed quite clearly. There are a few things you need to watch: please have a look at these corrections and let me know if you need anything clarified
> ❌ my daily routine has been significantely changed with the start of the Covid pandemic (this is the passive voice, which is incorrect)
> ✅ my daily routine has significantly changed with the start of the Covid pandemic
*see advanced section: the passive in the grammar course Tense Buster to review this
> ❌ I was used to do
>✅ I was used to DOING or I used to do (see this video for info on this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_7Gxa23-I7Y))
> for my experience replace ‘for’ with ‘in’ > in my experience
> watch your plurals and articles!
…and now I’m doing like 2/3 remote meetingS on A daily bases (basis)
… I don’t really dislike doing remote meetingS instead of face-to-face since the time call for social distancing, obviously there are some proS and cons on doing meetingS remotely.
If you have time Jacopo, please try and re-write this with the corrections – it’ll help you consolidate 👍
