Dear Torsten,
Thank you very much for your immediate reply. I am very much clear now. Since the sentence refers to a possibility in the past it should be in simple past. I am looking forward to the next test.
With thanks and regards

Dear Torsten!
How are you?
Thank you very much for lesson 4.
I listened the audio recording, I did the test( I made 3 mistakes) and I studied the personal pronouns.
I read the explanations about the differences between “finish and end”.In some cases it’s hard to realize which verb we have to use. This, isn’t totally clear for me.
I’m going on studing.
Thank you very much and have a nice week!
You can correct me if it is necessary.
Best regards

Dear Mr. Torsten Daerr
Thank you very much for your mail on English Lesson 4. Thanks for your nice teaching, explanation and everything. I understand more about the possessive adjective. It is really a practical class.
I attended the test ‘end & finish’ . I got only eight correct answers out of ten. There was bit confusion. The examples were very good. I am learning properly.
Now I am looking forward to receive English Lesson 5.
Many thanks
Rani Tomy
Dear sir,
I think you are right because i am a beginner in English so audio course would be best for me please send me audio material on my web id.
Thanks for sending me this interesting topic.
