Hi, everybody out there! This is the blog I’ve created for my ESL students at EOI Luarca. This is a new experience for me, but I’ve always loved computers and all the possibilities they offer, so I’m facing this new adventure with all the thrill and excitement that a 40-year-old can muster (middle-age, here I come!).

I intend to incorporate this interesting and valuable tool to my classes, and every week I’ll try to provide you with something interesting out there in the Net which can help you improve your English. You can browse through the different pages on the menu (it’s on your right!) to check out new activities for your level of English.

This is meant to be a community, not just my personal and private enterprise. Therefore, all your ideas, suggestions, challenges and complaints will be more than welcome.

That’s all for now, folks.

Peace out,

Javier Menéndez.
