About Me

My photo
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.

Teacher Alex said...

Oh Sandra,thank you for your concern: the teacher training course I attended was fantastic and so was my stay in London (it always is!).
I'm also sad because I am not teaching you this year but the good thing is that it means your course is coming to its end. What next, any idea?
Anyway, I'll be visiting you soon -you can count on that!!! I will never ever forget you either, Sandra!! Your class was / is an amazing group of ladies.
And, Sandra, don't worry so much about your English. Your message is clear and the important thing is to read / write / comment / suggest... to avoid forgetting your English, ok?
A big hug,
Teacher Alex
