About Me

Portugal
I am from Coimbra, Portugal, and am currently teaching in a school in Soure, about 30 km away from Coimbra. I have been a teacher of English for over 20 years and have already taught different levels and age groups. After all this time I can say I love working with adult groups because there are no coursebooks and I can create my own resources. I am an avid reader, a blogger and very curious about free tools and their implementation in the classroom.

Earth Day, should be every single day! We depende on planet Earth and not the opposit.
We only think in profit in building thus destroying the green areas we still have.
Although there have already been many campaigns to call people attention for the destruction of Planet Earth, there i still a lot we can all do to live in a better world. This fight has my full support.
Thank You, Magda Monteiro

Yes, Magda, there is still a long way to go so that the situation can improve. But... if you do your part and teach your kids; if I do my part and teach my kids the same way, we have to be confident that the future will (?) be brighter for them.
