Help anybody?:confused:

Perhaps they're the alternative team.
I have heard before that term in the university.
When was law university in the degree, there was a girls group with the intention to be the most popular in the degree and really they was very beautiful for the face anybody with the excellent opportunity of the catch some guy in the university.

Well they got the category of the alternative degree, I mean they majory of the votes champion of the career.
Because they was the unit girl with an beautiful face in the university.
Since then they was the alternative girls of the degree laws.:)

So as that term isn't new in the school between the youths.
I toyed that they should have named themselves the degree nerds of the university.
And they wasn't.

It's great, but I have only seen the first four seasons, I'll wait a while and then I will buy the 5th as they are really expensive over here. I could also risk getting a region 1 set from Amazon.com, but they don't always work... :)

Isn't it on Hulu or something? I'd be willing to bet that you could see all of the episodes for free online.........

"Jock", tocante a los escoseses viene de su pronuncación de "Jack", forma
alternativa de "John".

Quite probably, I'll give Hulu a try and if I cannot manage I'll ask one of my students.
I tend to buy most of them and then share them with my friends, students... but I'll have to start saving some money now that my salary is going down.:confused::thinking:;)

Oh, so do I.It's an incredibly rewarding job, provided you like it. But I hate exams and all the decision-taking that goes with them. I hate to see my students suffer and my workmates usually say I'm not objective ( I give too many As in their opinion)... but I think they are too strict...:confused::?::angel:

I'm too strict AND I give too many A's. :) Interesting that you say that the exams come with too many decision-making issues. I'm in the middle of a huge mess right now, and many of the adults involved are only interested in placing blame on other adults. I'm only interested in getting the best for my students. Therefore, my voice is not heard.... :(

Wow! It makes me so happy to finally find somebody who thinks like me. My workmates always tell me I'm not 'professional or objective', and spend hours discussing marks and bureaucracy. I'm the odd one out because I always talk to the students in English, and try to introduce them to the 'real thing'.
But we have a great relationship, do all sorts of relevant things in class (or at least we think so) and that's what counts.
At the end of the day, I just want to teach them to love English and to understand the Anglo-Saxon culture.
I'm sorry to be so forgetful, but you teach Maths in a high-school, don't you?
You sound like the kind of teacher I would want Iris to have.

Thanks, Maria - that is a very kind thing to say! :) Yes, I teach high school Algebra. It's a lot of fun! :)

I quoted you in one of our staff meetings today... and it worked. A colleague and I managed to get a well-deserved pass for an intermediate student.Thanks.:)

:pinkdaisies:Iris!
I haven't forgotten about Iris. She was quite lovely. Sent my regards if you see her.
By the way irises are still in bloom although it's getting late, but now that June has arrived, it's definitely roses' turn :rose:

I said there was this American lady I had met through a forum ( I might have used the word friend, hope you don't mind) who gave lots of straight As and was strict too. I just wanted them to see I'm not the odd-one-out.;)
Deberíamos empezar un hilo para hablar de educación, y además si quieres te puedo escribir en español, porque te vendrá mejor.
Un beso.

¡Me encantaría un hilo para hablar de educación! Esta semana, estoy demasiado ocupada para escribir mucho ... pero cuando empiezo mis cursos (en diez días), entonces más sabré mi horario. Definitivamente voy a participar. Me encantaría hablar sobre educación contigo! :) Y en español.....

Yo tambíen estoy muy ocupada, pero cualquiera de las dos podemos empezar el nuevo hilo cuando nos venga bien. En estas épocas hace falta desahogarse.
Besos. Hablamos.:kiss:
