I am so glad I met, virtually speaking , Russell Stannard, Shelly Terrell, Nick Peachey, etc... There are so many folks to mention! I am really happy to see I am part of a group that is concerned with teaching English using technology in the classroom. I do have fun. Internet has provided me with such wonderful trainings, webinars, video tutorials, interesting people in the field, thoughts, clasroom ideas. It changed my view on teaching... on Twitter... Believe it or not, I thought it was rubbish! Why would I share with the "world" what I am doing... What's the point? I am glad I am part of this now. Yes, I do agree with Nick Peachey about the dark side of technology when considering privacy. But there's so much to learning and sharing. It makes personal and professional development delightful and meaningful. I do have fun! This is funny because now I am "on the other side" trying to persuade my colleagues to use web2.0, to use technology and so on... This is what the future holds: Are you ready?

I am highly interested in Leadership, Coaching, ELT, ELL, ICT, NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming), Study Skills, Drama, TIE (Theater in Education), Professional Development and PLN (Personal Learning Network), Cooking and Storytelling.
