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.

Thank you MOM

In Portugal, Mother's Day is celebrated on the first Sunday of May - today! - which means Mums should be pampered and spoilt no matter how old they / we are : =))

To My Mother, Christina Rossetti (1842)


To-day's your natal day,
Sweet flowers I bring;
Mother, accept, I pray, 
My offering.

And may you happy live,
And long us bless;
Receiving as you give
Great happiness.

(Note: this is C. Rossetti's first poem, written when she was just 11 years old)

Happy Mother's Day to all Mothers. Thank you, Mom, and thank you to my two wonderful boys who made me a MOM!!!
