The learning evolution

I have been in love with what the net can do for us curious minds... and there are so much to be learned that one may get dizzy. One thing I always say to my students is to explore one site at a time.

It's easy to get lost online and instead of an evolution, we may get into a tanglelution and do nothing of relevance. So here I am trying to make the best out of my time continuing to explore what You Tube has to offer us. Take a look at this wonderful site a friend sent me last week: ESLvideo.com!

Enjoy!!!

Do your ears hand low?

wobble - wobble!!!

I'm supposed to present an activity to my professor and classmates tomorrow, at university (TESL methodology)... And I've decided to use the You Tube... I'll post the results of the experiment later. I'm using only one or two of them for the class, but I couldn't resist and got some more to share. Oops... it's 2AM - So it's already tomorrow... I've better go to bed.

I hope you tell me if you've used them in your classes and how they've worked for you.

The precious one



kisses and hugs my princess - I miss you so much!!




The one who taught me the way back to myself was a little girl that liked to smell flowers. I do hope she still does!

After years of separation, the friendship we had, the trust, the dependence, the love… still makes me smile a broad smile. Her love gave me a reason to learn being a teacher. She showed it is worth making sacrifices for learning, for changing, for teaching.
Jessica, you are the one who made me realize I wanted to have lots to share, and so I began my journey against all odds with the strength of the pure love we shared, which has gently been leading me back to myself. The one who can smell, see, touch others… just as you did to me.

The road is long and now I know it’ll never end, but it’s pleasant and adorned by flowers, that reminds me of you.
Droplets of life...
