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 Hour 2009

According to WWF, over 2,800 cities and towns in more than 80 countries supported the event last Saturday 28th. Indeed, many landmarks worldwide took part and went dark for 1 hour. WWF hopes this public support will convince governments across the world to agree to take effective action to tackle climate change.
I just hope you really switched your lights off to show our leaders you DO care about the environment!!! Ours is a small planet but the ONLY ONE we've got...

The environment definitely concerns us all and should be preserved but the truth is that profit has always been the top issue ever since the industrial revolution...


So, why not show your commitment to the environmental cause and join the movement Earth Hour 2009?


Here follows the challenge: wherever you are on SATURDAY 28TH MARCH AT 8.30PM LOCAL TIME, TURN YOUR LIGHTS OFF FOR AN HOUR and take part in this global event, which seeks to ignite a new call for action on climate change around the world.
