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.

Spain, what is Spain for you?

 


It is the name of the place where you live. You may say it is your country or just the name of a football team. Nowadays, we are in a globalised world and you've got relatives and friends working and living all around the world and problems throughout the problem might affect you, so we don't feel so much part of a country, but of the world.



You hear on the news that there are floods in New York and that is the city where your brother and his family lives. There is a severe drought in New Zealand and that is the country where a friend of yours works as a civil engineer. A heavy snow fall where your elder son is doing his Erasmus or a pandemic in Cardiff where your younger son is also doing his Erasmus. There is an avalanche in Laussane (Switzerland) and that is the spot where Benjamín Béjar Haro lives and works as a university professor and who was one of Albert's most brilliant students and whose family is from Molvízar.

  5. DESCRIPTION OF VAN GOGH'S ROOM

    Van Gogh's room has a window, two blue doors and a beautiful wooden floor.

    There are some wooden pieces of furniture: one bed with a red blanket and two white pillows, two ordinary chairs and a table with a blue vase on it.

    In my opinion it's a beautiful room but it is too small.

  6. Living in Spain feels like stepping into a vibrant,living painting.Everything is alive here the streets,the parks even the quiet corners are full of energy.People move slowly,savoring life,and it’s contagious.I’ve started noticing details I’d always overlooked before.The food is an experience in itself tapas,fresh bread,and the endless variety of local dishes make every meal feel like a celebration.Festivals and music seem to flow naturally through daily life,and the warmth of the people makes it easy to feel at home,even as a newcomer.Yet,Spain surprises me too,the mix of old traditions and modern life creates contrasts that keep me curious.Every day feels like discovering a story I didn’t know existed,and I can’t wait to see what comes next.

  9. Rafa Nadal's routines

    He gets up early, eats a nutritious breakfast, and does his workouts to avoid procrastination.

    Although discipline remains key, his routine is now more adapted to his family life, prioritizing time with his son and organizing his commitments before noon.

    Hobbies: While exercise is fundamental, he also dedicates time to his hobbies such as watching soccer, playing video games with friends, reading, fishing, and watching movies

  13. For me,Spain is one of the best places to visit.One of its great monuments is the Royal Palace of Madrid.It is also one of the best places to live.There are usually sunny climates and it sometimes rains, but there are almost always mild temperatures.

  15. The gastronomy in Spain is very varied.Some of the best dishes are Valencian paella, potato omelet, Iberian ham, and Andalusian gazpacho.

    Most children like to eat sweets, candies and buns, but very few like to eat fruits, vegetables and greens. Normally the people eat lentils, legumes and ham.

    In Spain, the most common food is ham. In my opinion, I don't like ham or lentils. But many people don't eat, they diet, to be stronger and healthier.
    I almost always diet and exercise.

  18. Christmas is the best holidays for me.
    You can spend Christmas with your family and friends, talking and enjoying yourselves. Those memories are never forgotten.

    You can take photos and videos to look at later, when you're older.Of all the holidays like Halloween, Taco Tuesday, Easter, Christmas, this one is the best.

    At Christmas people usually buy nougat, wine, and cakes.All the children get up at 9 o'clock in the morning on Christmas to receive their gifts.

    The best time for children is when they receive gifts from Santa Claus. But what they don't know is that Santa Claus doesn't exist.
