Story Fields at O'Keefe School of English in La Plata



Last week I went all the way to La Plata once again to visit my dear friends at O'Keefe School of English.

This time, though, things were a little different. Susan Hillyard and I enjoyed our trip to and back from the O'Keefe's, and met an extraordinary group of teachers who were amazingly willing to play, have fun, and learn in the process.

We shared a whole day full of stories, games, songs, and sounds, had a great lunch all together, and even shared "mate" and cookies!

It was  a great day getting ready to start the school year magically and powerfully!

A huge thank-you hug to Maureen and Sole O'Keefe, and to all their staff, for their warmth, generousity and friendship. And a final word of acknowledgement to my dear Susan for a great day together and a very enlightening conversation on the way!

See you all soon, and have a magical school year!

So long!

Story Fields at Pro-T Conference in BA



Hello again, everyone! I am proud and happy to share this piece of news with you, as the first entry this year, a year that I feel is going to be really magical and powerful for many of us!

It was an honour for me to be part of this conference, its first time in BA by the way, which gathered amazing national and international speakers and presenters. The workshops and plenaries were both professional and up-to-date, and the whole atmosphere was surrounded by an aura of good vibes.

Personally, it was great for me to share this event with Susan Hillyard and the English in Action team -believe it or not, our presentation had the audience in tears-, former teachers of mine, like Claudia Ferradas, and all the lovely people from "la Asociacion" and my beloved "Lenguas." It was also great to enjoy Inno's session sitting next to Fabi Parano and to see so many familiar faces around.

Thank you Luciano and all the Pro-T team for your generosity, kindness and professional warmth - and for lending me this pic from my talk "The power and magic of Storytelling."

So long!
