Ella came to visit us last summer with her parents and her friend Aisla.
Back in the UK, Ella’s playing a sport called netball which I don’t think is very popular here in Spain, so I asked her to talk about it and explain a little about how it’s played.

Hi again
It’s a really good listening practise for language learners to listen to children speaking. Ella’s pronunciation was clear and easy to listen to. I hope she doesn’t count too much calories but rather counts friends and sunny days 🙂 Elisa
Ella is a very ‘sunny’ girl. Always smiling and happy. She is the daughter of two of my closest friends. They come over to visit me in Spain from the UK.
