The best things to SEE and DO in London!!

For my students of 3º ESO here is a nice short video about the great city of London. Samuel Johnson, a XVIII century English writer, said that "if you are tired of London, you are tired of life". Enough said!

Have a nice trip!!!

Invictus Trailer

For my students of 1º Bachillerato here is the trailer of Clint Eastwood's film Invictus, the real story of how a man, Nelson Mandela, and a sport, rugby, changed the history of a nation secularly divided by violence and racism.

Embrace the Beauty around you!

For my students of 1st Bachillerato here is a video about the experiment with Joshua Bell, the famous violin virtuoso, at the Washington DC metro station. Incredible but true!!

Remember: Beauty is all around you, don't be just another passer-by! ... Wake up or you'll miss it!!

Imagine!

One Love!
