Hi friends!
I’m having a really great time in England. Everything is fascinating me: London, the people, who are so polite, the course at International House and teachers. Well, considering these comments you can probably figure out this is my first time in Europe. And I’m very glad we are having this experience.
There’s a lot to learn, and there’s even more to tell people later in Brazil. That’s why I’m planning to prepare a power point presentation about the trip to my students. Don’t you think it’s a good idea?
Do you have any suggestions or anything to share to improve my idea?
Thank you all, particularly, my classmates, for the nice time we’ve been spending together!

Wish you all a wonderful weekend!
Hi everyone. It's been a pleasure to get to know everyone And All the culture.

I'm really enjoying everything

Hi guys,

I'm enjoying everything in London, the contact with the British culture has been very interesting. I've learned a lot about pronunciation and vocabulary. I'm trying to register some teaching techniques in order to try to put some of them in practice in my classes in Brazil. Finally, I could understand how to work with task-based activities, I was studying that in Brazil, however, it was difficult for me to have ideas in order to approach it, and Emma helped a lot, I really enjoyed. Fiona is helping me to understand British educational system and the royal family. When I arrive at 7pm at my host family, I can have dinner with them and this is nice, because we can talk a lot and I can learn different things. I've realized that my listening has improved and after a few days, I can understand almost everything, since the British accent was hard for me. Yesterday was amazing because I went to a musical for the first time and I loved it, it touched me a lot!  Finally, I'm happy because I've understood how to go walking in London.

The Royal Family

I really enjoyed our sessions today about the Royal Family and to be honest I was pleasantly surprised how much you already know about them!
Here are my slides from today.

Hello!

Hello everybody! Finally I'm on the blog...

Welcome to our blog!

Welcome to our blog! Over the course of the next four weeks this will be a place for reflection and discussion following our classroom sessions.
To get everyone involved, I'd like to add you all as authors, and for that you need to have a gmail account (it's really easy to set up if you don't already have one!) then I can send you an invitation. Anyone in the FATEC/ETEC group can read it and comment, but I'd like you all to contribute. This week's project will involve the blog, so the sooner I can get everyone up and running, the better.
We hope you will enjoy using it, and look forward to reading your comments and posts.
