Good Morning Manuel,
I’d like to thank you for this most recent podcast. I’d also like to welcome you back,since its been a while since your last podcast. Its great to see you back.
I really like this most recent podcast. Maybe for the next one you might think about adding to this list of body parts. But Perhaps with a bit of a twist.
Like, it would be great to learn how to say tooth, but also learn how to say I have a tooth ache. Knee is great, but would love to learn I hurt my knee.
Lap is wonderful, but how about Come here, sit on my Lap.
Toe would be another body part to learn,and with it, I stubbed my toe.Then there is toenail and finger nail. I broke my finger nail or toe nail.
Eye is wonderful to learn. can we learn to say , I have something in my eye.also perhaps hair and hair cut.
Just some suggestions. Oh , and as far as your request, I like getting the podcast so I can learn them all at once, but I also like the pdf version so we can study the written version as well. thanks so much..Maraming Salamat Po.
[From Manuel] Thanks, Steve! Stay tuned for the upcoming podcasts. :-)

Mr. Viloria,
Thank you for the Lessons… They are Great! I Like them offered in the present format… I enjoy receiving a complete lesson rather than to click each time I need to hear something… It’s nice to keep my Hands Free…
Again, Thank You So Much…!
Bob
