Leadership

Most of you know I have been following another course in Cambridge called: managing content and quality in education! Sounds interesting, doesn't it? Well, it was but not as interesting as I expected. I did learn quite a lot, was confronted with myself quite a lot and I met a lot of new and very interesting people of which a few of them I can call friends! Next holiday I will be visiting Mannheim to visit Melanie and I will visit her school. I am so curious!!!
Did I learn how to be a leader? Maybe, I hope I might have the chance to put it into practice one day and if not: I will always be the crazy enthusiastic teacher that tries to make English learning and teaching fun!

Check this video which summarizes what you need to become a leader!

Big fun with B1a!
Today B1a starts exploring my blog. I wonder what they think of it .... Lets see what they will write down here ....

To be cool or not to be cool ...

In class I had a discussion about the latest fashion among boys. Apparently it is very cool to wear your pants half your bottom or even below (so please choose your underwear wisely). To wear your pants is gay amongst the youngsters ... On facebook I came across a picture with a lovely story about the invention of wearing your pants low. Call me old, but for once, I consider it a compliment to be called old!!!


FOR ALL OF U THAT THINK IS NICE TO WALK WITH UR PANTS BELOW UR BUTT, READ THE FOLLOWING EXPLANATION: THIS TREND WAS BORN IN THE UNITED STATES’ JAILS, WHERE PRISONERS WHO WERE WILLING TO HAVE SEX WITH OTHER PRISONERS NEEDED TO INVENT A SIGNAL THAT WOULD GO UNNOTICED BY THE GUARDS SO THEY WOULDN’T SUFFER CONSEQUENCES, SO BY PARTIALLY SHOWING THEIR BUTTS, THEY SHOWED THAT THEY WERE AVAILABLE TO BE PENETRATED BY OTHER INMATES. ARE YOU ADJUSTING TO HOMOSEXUAL PATTERNS MAYBE?
