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.

YORK 06: Liverpool, The Beatles, the Albert Docks, smugglers... and our Vikings!


 Today we are going to Liverpool on our one-day trip. The coach will be leaving from the car park opposite St John University at 8.00 in the morning. We will be arriving in Liverpool around 10.30.





The first thing we will be visiting is Anfield stadium (Liverpool FC), then we will be going to the Albert Docks. Then we will have time for shopping and pop in The Cavern to see the pub where The Beatles began their musical career. You can also visit the Liverpool Museum.
Finally, we will be arriving back home in York by 18.00.


This trip has been a bit bizarre. We usually have problems in the first days of the stay. This time all the problems (I'd rather say misunderstandings, little distubances with the public transport) appeared at the end, instead. Our students behaved great, but they had some problems with buses (line 1) a few of them arrived a bit late, As well, two girls had a little misunerstanding about their pack lunches and what to do on Sunday, which could be easily solved thanks to York Tutors staff.



And what about our day? We shared the coach with the group from Aviles, who are really nice and who have become so close to the students in our group. The first thing to do was the visit to Anfield Stadium (Liverpool F.C.), then we had our guided tour ìn the Albert docks and finally we had some free time.







This was the time when something amazing happened to our teacher Albert. Four old students of his at IES Mediterraneo pop out a shop and happened to see him, so they shouted at him and came to say hello. How amazing! Three of them had participated in some of our previous experiences in the British-Irish Isles.

Finally, we returned home again with mixed feelings. On the one hand, we are eager to go back home. On the other hand, we feel sad because our adventure is coming to an end,

  1. If you have a free day , and you want to do something healthy ,I recommend to do some sport ,don´t stay at home all day watching TV, or eating...

    So I´m going to tell you some perfect sports for these days , for example one of the best sports at the moment is cycling , everyone has a bike , and It´s easy to meet with your friends and ride a bike to another city , to some roads , to the mountains...
    Another sport is football, this is another sport in which you can stay with your friends and play with them , you can go to a football field , make two teams and play all afternoon .
    Another sport that is played a lot is tennis or paddle , this is another game in which you can play with your friends , at the moment this sport is one of the most practiced .
    Here in Molvizar ,we have two football fields , two paddle courts , we have a basketball court , but this sport isn´t played here in Molvizar , If you want to play basketball you have to go to Salobreña or Motril .

    To do these sports you have to take a bag with bottles of water , something to eat , money to buy something...

    And after playing these sports all afternoon , you can go to a restaurant for dinner.
