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.

  6. ·Jurite is a mountain that belongs to Molvizar, Itrabo and Guajar. From the mountain, you can see the coast. You can see many animals here, like snakes, pigs, bees and more animals. So here, there are many viewpoints that you can take a rest there.

    ·You can go and visit in Jurite the viewpoint of the
    mines, the millenary chestnut tree or the Saint Pichulín. Those are beautiful places in Jurite that you can visit for free o with a guide. In the viewpoint of the mines, you can recollect beautiful rocks with different types of
    color, also, you can visit to the millenary chestnut tree
    or the Saint Pichulín. Saint Pichulín is a very big rock that has a legend that you can ask people in Molvizar, Itrabo and Guajar. The chestnut is a very big tree that produces chestnuts, you can't eat the chestnuts because they belong to a person, but you can visit it for free and take a rest there.

    ·In my opinion, I think Jurite is a very beautiful place and a good place for people that want to do tourism or hiking on the mountains.
