Class Interviews with native speakers

Hello there!


At the end of the English Course I have to present a Final Project and I decided to talk about “Seattle as a Green City”, so a part of the project is make some interviews to native speakers about the topic and last Friday some native speakers came to the Classroom and we had the chance to talk with them.

It was a really cool experience because we could ask them some questions about the topic and we had the chance to hear their opinions about it. The first question I asked to them was: How can you define a Green City? And all the answers were almost the same: A City that is engage with environment, which is worry about sustainability, about green spaces and the most important life quality.

Almost all of them think Seattle is a green city, in fact, one of the greenest cities in the United States. Expect a guy thinks that Seattle is not green as other cities like San Francisco because there’s not enough public transportation for the people.


I found really interesting how people who live here in Seattle had a Recycling Culture, I mean they recycle because they are used to do it, they like to, they enjoy it, and they don’t imagine themselves not doing it, and that’s why I chose this topic because I want to share this Recycling Culture with my classmates in México maybe, we could become Mexico City in a real Green City.

  2. Hi,
    I think you chose a good topic and most important I consider that sharing this particular cultural education about recycling back home can help our families and communities to have a differente approach about it.
