Teacher Under Construction

Hi everyone! Apologies, as it  has been a long silent period...Unfortunately, I have been off sick for some months now and I haven't posted anything since. I miss my students, my fun time with them and the teaching mode. Patience is the only thing being built these days...and patience is what I ask of any you who come to my blog looking for new posts or info. Fingers crossed, I will be back soon!!! Thank you for your support and understanding. 

Relationship Applications, the App you need!

AS students are ON FIRE and have presented assorted apps they think are interesting to socialise, interact and meet other people, not only with romantic purposes, but basically to either contact to meet up, make friends or connect in a world where finding people with similar tastes gets easier thanks to new technologies. Let me share some of their multiple proposals. Although once more, due so shyness constrictions, many apps won't be shared. Too bad.
