My last holidays

My last holidays were very interesting and funny because I went to Granada with my friends and my parents .

When we were there, firstly we went to the hotel, where we stayed for 4 days and 3 nights. It was the first day at night so we only slept. Then , the next day, we went to see the Alhambra . It was amazing! The same day we ate out and then we went shopping. We bought lots of things, for example my best friend bought a pair of green trousers and two beautiful t-shirts .The third day, we went to visit my best friend’s grand-parents , because they live there, and we ate in a beautiful restaurant that her grand-parents suggested us. Then, at night my parents stayed in the hotel and we hang out. The last day we prepared our luggage and we bought some souvenirs to give to our family and friends , for example Toni bought a bracelet to his mother . In the bracelet you could read: “I LOVE GRANADA” .

So this is all I can say about my last week in Granada , I suggest people to go there because is a beautiful place to visit.

The school counsellor asked me to produce a document in which Andalusian students could search for professional education courses. It is urgent because students have to make decissions about their near future.

The Social Network school trip

We had a school trip yesterday and watched this one. I asked my students to make a comment on this. I do not expect them to write a masterpiece but I think the film hooked their attention.

MacMillan Teacher Training Event

On March 11th 2010 I went to Almeria. The reason is that Mac Millan editors invited me to attend a series of speeches about language teaching.

In my opinion, the speech by Tom Walton and blogging in class was really interesting.

Leave me breathless

Writing is one of the weakest parts of teaching English as a foreign language. He listened to this song a few days ago on the radio and a decided to make ma students listen to it, read some about it and eventually answer a few questions.




Go on, go on, leave me breathless
Come on, yeah, yeah
The daylight's fading slowly
But time with you is standing still
I'm waiting for you only
The slightest touch and I feel weak
I cannot lie
From you I cannot hide
And I'm losing the will to try
Can't hide it (can't hide it)
Can't fight it (can't fight it)

So go on, go on, come on leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me, until I can't deny
This lovin' feeling
Make me long for you kiss, go on, go on
Yeah, come on

And if there's no tomorrow
And all we have is here and now
I'm happy just to have you
You're all the love I need somehow
It's like a dream
Although I'm not asleep
And I never want to wake up
Don't lose it (don't lose it)
Don't leave it (don't leave it)

So go on, go on, come on leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me, until I can't deny
This lovin' feeling
Make me long for you kiss, go on, go on
Yeah, come on

And I can't lie
From you I cannot hide
And I lost my will to try
Can't hide it (can't hide it)
Can't fight it (can't fight it)

So go on, go on, come on leave me breathless
Tempt me, tease me, until I can't deny
This lovin' feeling
Make me long for you kiss
Go on, go on, come on leave me breathless
Go on, go on, come on leave me breathless
Go on, go on, come on leave me breathless
Go on, go on
