These are the bare facts

 

 

 

Facts are facts, and you cannot disguise them. We see it everyday in our lives. Countries attack other countries and they say it is on behalf of the freedom of the other country's citizens. Nonsense! 

 

Some articles for you to read about the issue: 

• US and Israel strike Iran as Netanyahu says ‘many signs’ Khamenei ‘no longer alive’ (The Guardian)

• What we know so far about the US-Israel attacks and Iran's retaliation (BBC News)

• Attacks on Iran trigger global Shiite protests (DW News)

 

 

It is said that there are different types of English teachers, some better than the others, but the bare facts are that there is only one English language and that at the end of the road you will have the same control for every student in our secondary schools. And that will the moment when we will learn what we have really learned.

 

My congratulations to our student Martín Toledo (4º ESO A) for having just passed his B1 in English (Cambridge) obtaining excellent results in certain skills (he even got a B2 level in the Reading skill). Facts are facts!!!
