My name is María Alejandra Pinardi, I am an English teacher in Buenos Aires, Argentina. I have been teaching kids,  teens and adults for 27 years. And I have been learning since then. Teaching and learning non stop, because this is what life is about.  I´m honored to be a facilitator in this learning festival, glad to share, so pleased to see so many people who care! I´d like to share a few words I wrote some time ago: Life-long learning learn all your life long you start to learn since you were born to walk, to eat, to run, to speak. Remember those days when you learnt a great deal you learnt at your own pace you learnt from your mistakes And the truth is you learn as you go you learn life lessons you learn all life long. Get ready, don´t stop and go on, take action if you learn with passion you will really learn a lot. You learn in a group you learn on your own you learn at home, at school when you teach, and in WizIQ!!!! Hello world!

Life-long learning
learn all your life long
you start to learn
since you were born
to walk, to eat,
to run, to speak.

Remember those days
when you learnt a great deal
you learnt at your own pace
you learnt from your mistakes
And the truth is
you learn as you go
you learn life lessons
you learn all life long.

Get ready, don´t stop
and go on, take action
if you learn with passion
you will really learn a lot.

You learn in a group
you learn on your own
you learn at home, at school
when you teach, and in WizIQ!!!!

My name is Inés Hamdi and I'm from Denmark/Tunisia. I've only been teaching English for 5 years but have studied it ever since 4th grade. I've already tried my hand at ELT in evening language classes, at university level and summer school for kids. I never knew I wanted to teach - not until that moment when I taught my first class the year I was finishing my MA in English Lit : I was hooked after 5 minutes!!!! I'm currently working on my PhD in English Lit but am in parallel enjoying the challenges of ELT. In Tunisia, teaching at universities will always require a big amount of "undercover" ELT - which is why I decided to do the CELTA this previous summer! I'm here to LEARN from you all - Presenters, Participants and Facilitators. I already know that there's a bunch to learn from all four corners of the world and I'm EXCITED!! Hey everybody!

I still see some problems here on ELT-T ClubEFL. If I go from here to eg Drew's Post CLass with the link on the right-hand side, http://elt-techniques.clubefl.gr/?cat=23 there is no comment space and I have to click again on the title and go to another page http://elt-techniques.clubefl.gr/?p=85 to add coments, but can't see any previous comments. Earlier this evening I went to the same page on the Discuss and Share page and inserted a comment. You can see it here: http://discussion.clubefl.gr/?p=85#comment-6 but it doesn't appear on the page linked to from here, on the right. http://elt-techniques.clubefl.gr/?cat=23 Shouldn't these pages be the same? It's still a bit confusing. Sylvia.

I´ve been teaching English since 1999. I am an EFL teacher, Secondary School teacher, private teacher and for just one year now, a business English freelance teacher. I´ve been working with adults from different companies, multinational ones, that need their employees to be trained in English. I also work for a private local English institute, where I deliver classes for all ages students :) I´m here for I´m eager to learn this language up to all boudaries. Therefore pass The Key to all my students. I love improving and my goal is to master,( or at least I´m trying to) Enlgish language. Just hearing your facilitators explaining and teaching us fulfill my expectations. You make everything so simple and clear that the way you enrich our teaching techniques is absolutely useful. Learning is a neverending story, in all the stages and ages. All my respect and love for our trainers here!! Hi!!! I´m Mariela, from Argentina. I´ve been teaching English since 1999.
