The first strategy was Penetration Pricing and consists to produce high volume and sell it at low price.

We learned about more strategies, but I think the most important strategy is Value Pricing because the company look the opinions of the people and then decide the price of his product.

The dictionary didn't stop to go of hand in hand to look for the correct words.

I said to them that I worked in a restaurant, that received rather little but that as advantage is that single it was a day to the week and that although received very little because it was enough me for the expenses of my car. Next, we saw a video of a presentation badly done. The person who towards the presentation, was nervous, arrived behind schedule upon presentment, did not appear to the audience, some times she spoke very bass and without watching the audience. All these errors we commented them when the video finalized.
I must recognize that whichever Kieth I let to us make a break we went away to see the Barça - Liverpool. It was a good party, that to Kieth it had liked to see it but as puts in front education to the leisure, because it gave the classes, as it had to be. In this sense I request excuses to Kieth to me to have released to half class.

2º THEORY CLASS

In the second English II class, the treated subject was the different forms to create a company, unipersonal or societies. The different forms from company in the private sector are: Sole Traders Partnerships, Private Limited Companies, Public Limited Companies (PLCs) Co-operatives, Franchises, Charities. After an explanation on the advantages and disadvantages of each one of the types of company, the students we dedicated ourselves to speak on the companies of each one of the countries. About Spain I think that most of companies they are constituted like Sole trades, although also they are many Private Limited Companies. In other European countries also they predominate this type of companies and the Franchises of chains like Mc'Donalds and other chains of present fast meals in all Europe. The class conclude with the accomplishment of grammar exercises that, in truth, I believe that they need given the time which I take without practicing the English.

In the class of presentation of the English 2 subjet the professor Kieth Stuart spoke to us of the industry, as much deprived as public and the differences that exist between public and private companies. After showing us the slides that reflected the characteristics of the private and public companies he called us the Spaniards so that distributed us between erasmus so that speak on the situation of the public and deprived companies in the countries of origin of each one of erasmus. I met with Turks, Swedish and a Pole and after many attempts to understand to us in English, because for a long time I have not been practicing the English and did not manage to express all the good to me that wished it. In conclusion, I managed to find out that the industry in Turkey was mainly private and that Germany and Italy invested great amounts of capital in the Turkish industry. Also we discussed the problem of the Spanish education and that the English sufficiently doesn't consider in the schools the public. This was everything what we did in the first English 2 class, was very beneficial because I believe that I have more problems in speaking English that in understanding it.
