About a year ago, I started this blog with a picture of Eros, in Picadilly Circus. It seems his power of attraction captured me and now I have moved to London for a year to take part in a new project.
This blog was originally created for CAL students and it worked well (or that is what my students and other colleagues told me) so I would like to keep it going. However, I will use it as a diary of my stay here and it will not be specifically designed for a profile of students.
But I want to keep the spirit of the original blog in this re-birth, so here is the first entry again:
Teaching is a difficult task. Teaching your subject in English to Spanish students means adding more difficulties, especially if you are Spanish and have to "suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous" English.
This blog tries to offer some help in that task and provide some "arms to oppose" those difficulties. Let Eros (or Anteros?), the Greek god of love assist us with his arrows in this act where love and affection also play an important role.

Now here I am, "trying to" teach Spanish to students of other nationalities and polishing my English. Welcome everybody and , to those who follow the blog, welcome back!
