A bit about me...
I work as a consultant in secondary education, teaching English and technology. I also teach English and intercultural competence in industry. I love my job, believe in lifetime learning and hate teachers who aren't interested in developing themselves.

Am spending the afternoon actively listening to John, Paul, Ringo and George in the hope of finding some answers.
