Hi, everybody! =)
ReplyDeleteLet me introduce myself! My name is Sabrina and I'm the teacher of this course. I'm from Argentina. I was born in Quilmes but now I live in Barracas. Barracas is a neighbourhood in the capital city of Argentina, the city of Buenos Aires. I am thirty-five years old and I don't have children. I live in a small flat with my partner, Tommaso. Tommaso is Italian. He's been living in Buenos Aires for about two years and a half. We don't have any pets or plants at home, but we both love nature and we'd like to move to a quiet place, surrounded by nature, in the near future. I love art in general, especially dancing (salsa and bachata) and taking photos. I work a lot, many hours a day, but I have some free time. In my free time, I enjoy surfing the net, listening to music and taking naps! I don't go out very often, I prefer to stay in and take it easy. What about you????
Sabrina

Note: By the way Javier, a possible translation for "El saber no ocupa lugar" is "One can never know too much", you wrote "knowledge does not take place", in fatc this is the translation that you get by using the Google Translator, but in this case, it is incorrect. It is very difficult to translate sayings (dichos) and proverbs. If you are intereted in proverbs and sayings in Englihs, have a look at this site: http://www.ompersonal.com.ar/omexpress/idioma/dichosyproverbios.htm
Instead of using the google translator, for this type of cases, it is better to google something like: "¿Cómo se dice "el saber no ocupa lugar" en inglés?", or in English "How do you say 'El saber no ocupa lugar' in English?...
Finally, I did my presentation in an other day. But I am Bibiana. I am a dancer and a teacher (dance and primary school). Now, I am retired. Sabrina was my teacher during two years, and I think that she is an excellent teacher. I have a daughter. She is married and they have a daughter, Gaia. They will have another baby. They are very happy, and me too. I like studying English and working with the blog. Bibiana
ReplyDeleteWelcome Bibiana! Nice to read your comments again!
ReplyDeleteBibiana was a student of mine last year (and the other also), but she passed and she was promoted to level 4. She is studying at another school with another teacher now, in a higher level. Anyway, it is a pleasure to keep in touch through our blog. Hope you will find here interesting and useful activities to continue learning!

ReplyDeleteDear "anónimo",
DeleteAll your comments are welcome!
But, please, remember that you are supposed to write in English. If you make mistakes it is not that important, as long as we can understand what you want to say. As you can see, the idea here is to practise our English. We are all learning.
Hope to know your name soon!
