😔 Regrets & Missed Chances
Students read an emotional personal essay in which the writer reflects on three key regrets from their twenties — not going on a study exchange to Japan, losing touch with a close friend who died young, and missing a financial investment opportunity. The third conditional and wish/if only + past perfect are woven naturally throughout the text. A matching game tests if-clause and result pairing, and the writing task has students reflect on their own past decisions.
