BEING A TEACHER....

BEING A TEACHER IS A DIFFICULT TASK NOWADAYS, SO I DECIDED TO FOLLOW THIS PIECE OF ADVICE BY BRUCE LEE:

Empty your mind, be formless. Shapeless, like water. If you put water into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put water into a bottle and it becomes the bottle. You put it in a teapot it becomes the teapot. Now, water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend.

  1. I think the two versions of the song "Dream a little dream of me" are very similar, especially the musicians who playing various instruments, but the voice of the girl who sings is not like the voice of Louis Armstrong, the original singer. I prefer the original version because I don't like the voice of the girl who sings.
    I love the title and lyrics of the song.

  4. For me the original song is a lot better than the version that the musicians did because I think that Louis Armstrong`s voice is incredible comparing it to the girl`s voice.
    In my opinion it`s obvious that everyone prefers Louis, but we have to recognize that the musicians did a very good job as well.
    I specially love this song, because one my favourite artists sings it and because the lyrics are motivating for me.

  5. I always think that the original song is better than any other version, and in this case it isn't different. However, I have to say that the girl has done a great job singing the song. She's got a beautiful voice, but Louis Amstrong's voice is so special that the song transmit other feelings when you listen to it.

  7. First of all, I want to say that I love this song, Louis Amstrong's voice is special and, from my point of view, the melody and lyrics are fantastic and very beautiful. To sum up, I think that secondary school students did it very well but I like quite better Louis version. In addition,I could never do it.

  8. I think you can't compare these two versions. Obviously Louis Amstrong's version is better than the another one because Amstrong's voice is incredible. On the other hand, in my opinion, the girl who has sung, has done it very well.

  9. I think that the original song is clearly better than the other version because Louis Armstrong has an incredible voice that can´t be compared with the voice of the other singer. I also think that the girl’s version is not bad, but it isn´t any special, a lot of people can sing like that.

  13. I think that the song to sing for the students is a good job. Although they can that don’t enough to be like that Louis Armstrong, the voice of the girl is very “sweet”. Each version has your special feature, but I like much the original version. By: Belén Pérez Giménez 2º Bach. A.

  16. Why isn't there any classical music in this blog?
    I love this kind of music and I thing it makes you a sensitive, calm and a bit more cultured person.
    This is one of the scores that I´m playing on the first term at the conservatory.
    What do you think?

  17. I think the two versions are a bit different. I don´t like this type of music, I preffer pop music. The first version is good, but the second version it better. I think the girl in the first version is very good. I can´t sing that song because it very difficult.

  18. I quite liked the song they sang. I think they sang it very well, but I liked the young girl's voice more than the middle age man's.
    I was also very impressed by how well the boy played the trumpet. He played it very well for a boy such a young age.
    I don't think I could do something like that because I don't have a very good singing voice. I enjoy singing but not in front of people because I'm not very good.

  20. They did it really good, but I prefer the original song, it's sometimes better than others covers.
    And, if someone can sing, have a good voice and has a good pronunciation, why not do it?

  21. I don´t like this tipe of music, but I think that this song by Louis Amstrong is beautiful and lovely and is better than other songs at present. He has a good and deep voice, and good pronunciation. I also think it is related to Christmas, but the lyrics are love.
