Hi everybody!! Who loves winter? Who thinks that it’s the best season? Who thinks that it’s sooo much better than summer because you wear more clothes and that’s it? On the contrary, if it’s sooo hot... you feel exhausted, angry all the time, tired, sticky, etc, etc… well… the answer will be…

 

Today I want to share with you a fantastic piece of news that I had received four weeks ago. The Head from one of the school where I work told me that I was going to have a new course, a new group of students. Let me tell you that I felt soooooo good that I couldn’t believe it. It was one of those moments when you feel that you are doing a good job and people see it. It was amazing.

So, on Monday I went with my flashcards, markers, copies, etc to the school to meet this new group. They were in 1^st year. I felt butterflies in my stomach because you don’t know what’s going to happen until you are there.

The students were great, they were so enthusiastic and eager to participate. I love them. The second and third class I made flashcards with questions and they have to match them with the correct answer (some answers were missing so they have to do the flashcards) and we also played the cd and complete the course book. Again, they were so excited and they seem to enjoy the class a lot.

I am so grateful and I always try to do my best and to show my students that I care about them. I want to prepare my classes thinking about them and to see that the effort has its rewards… it’s marvellous.  

I think that if we (teachers) concentrate on planning our classes, knowing our students’ needs and giving our very best… that’s it.

Right?
