Let me start by greeting you all.
I've just discovered this (wonderful!) site and let me say that it is a real lifesaver!
I have been teaching ESL for the last 18 years, and it is becoming harder and harder to find the right motivation and creative resources to teach English as a second language. At this site I've found some great material, visually fantastic and very well elaborated and it's so great to find exactly the thing we were looking for!
Thank you! or as we say in my native language Obrigado!

Hi and welcome!

What level are the students that you are teaching?

[Ana Loureiro]

Greetings!
This year I teach 8th Graders (level 2 and 4) and 10th Graders in my day classes. In my evening classes I teach 10th and 11th graders.
Oversized classes and poor working conditions are just two of the realities that make teaching such a challenge in my country. Unfortunately we have extremely high rates of school drops-outs and insuccess in most of the school subjects that make up the official curricula.
That's why I'm always looking for new approaches and ideas...to make learning a less tricky business for my classes.
Keep up ypur good work,
Ana
