Hi there! How are you? Freezing? Me too! And winter doesn't come yet! OMG! Meanwhile, I'm enjoying a delicious cup of coffee with milk. Hope you're doing the same. If not, take some minutes FOR YOU and RELAX for a while. Believe me, at this time of the year and with this kind of weather, it's worthy of consideration!  Well, let's start with this new post. I wanted to write and I didn't know what about. So, I thought, thought and thought and there it was! Elephants. But not any elephant, I mean Ganesha (apart from that, one of my favourite animals are elephants haha). Some people know me really well and notice I love Hindu culture.

Last class at the prof, we made a rewiew of different methods and approaches. However, this post will be only focused on the Four Methods. The first one is COMMUNITY LANGUAGE LEARNING. It is also called counseling- learning theory. On the one hand, the teacher operates in a supportive role, monitors learners' utterances and provides assitance when requested. She/He acts as a counselor and paraphrases what the students say.

How are you? I hope you're enjoying this cold weather. I love it! ♥  Well, the other day I explained to you the reason why I've chosen that name for my blog. Today, I decided that it would be a great idea to introduce you my family. We are a lot of people in this tribe haha. So, I'm going to show you some of them.  Here we have mum and dad. They are Monica and Carlos. My mum is forty-five years old and she looks like my sister rather than my mother. She is a  really beautiful woman. Besides, I don't have any brothers or sisters. Let's continue... my dad is fifty and something... I don´t remember very well haha. He isn´t my biological father, but he is together with my mum since I was eight months old. So, for me he is my REAL AND BELOVED DAD. In this pic, we were celebrating the arrival of this new year. Next please! haha. Ohhh, it's very difficult for me to talk about these people without crying since they are everything for me. I can´t explained...
