Wow! Rachnar has come back from Valhalla!!

 

 

More than 4 years ago I took a decision: I would never teach bachillerato again (Valhalla awaits Rachnar!!). It has been tough for me not to go all the way long with my students till the end and the results in the Selectivity exam have been quite poor lately. So I asked my students in 4º ESO if they would like to have me as a teacher in Bachillerato and most of the best students were delighted with the idea (Thanks for your support!!). So here I go again in spite of all the problems it may bring along.

 

It is a huge challenge for my students and me, so we will have to work hard and all of us should try to do our best.
