    What happened (as short or as long as you like, but be specific): Learners were working in groups of two most of the time which works out just fine because in both groups, there’s one higher-level learner helping a lower-level learner. MC was very high-spirited and engaged in periodic chit chat to keep the class in similar high spirit.
