And that's all for now, folks!
The many or the few "because" don't mean you're more or less liked...
Now it's up to you to understand what those dots really mean.
I'm not worried about their meaning at all because ... I know what they stand for.
LOL
Love ya all the same
Your English Teacher...

A "15-advice tree" ! Target : The English Teacher


It was at this year start (2007) that I asked these guys here to think of a tree that would bloom in Spring and be with a new leaf cover...
That tree would contain advices for me to make into blossoms improving or maintaining attitudes, shared feelings or improving mistakes in my/our classes.
They had fun doing their assignments, I had fun reading them.
I even got surprised and moved with what they conveyed to me with this work.
Today I'll post some of the most interesting things I came to.
The next step will be the visual presentation that is usually outstanding.
These guys do have imagination and esthetic taste!


"Teacher, you could motivate your students more if you wrote e-mails to them" Pedro

"You should live without any fear" - Marlene

"You shouldn't compare 11ºB (us) so often to 11º A! Different classgroups, different people." Renato

"Don't say things you could regret later! I think you do it sometimes!" - Ana Isabel

"You should give a little more attention to our blog" - Carla Sofia

"When you feel down, you shouldn't go to FNAC because there you spent your money with things you don't need!"- Patrícia

"You should go on paying attention to the students who have more difficulty at English so that they can take more advantage out of what you teach" - Manela

"You shouldn't get so angry with your students as you sometimes do because you make them feel unhappy!" - Diana Luísa

"For this new year I advise you to look at the present taking in mind you have to learn out of the mistakes of the past" - Daniel

"You should always be a good-humoured person" - Bárbara Sofia

"Don't give up the relationship you have with your students because it's a very good one!" - Manela

"Don't change your way!! That makes you different from the other teachers!" - Ana Isabel

"Keep the telepathic conversations with your students!" - Renato

"Give value to what has real value and forget what hasn't" - Marlene

"Do not embarrass your students because they really get at a loss when you do so!" - Diana Luísa

"You shouldn't accept anyone saying you aren't special because everyone is special in their own way!" - Carla Sofia

"Teacher, you could once in a while speak more in Portuguese in classes because sometimes it's difficult for some of your students to understand you in English!" - Pedro

"Don't lose your will strength to teach your students no matter what the school problems are like!" - Barbara Sofia

"If we did a homework like this, you should also try to find out 15 advices for us!" - Patrícia
