Nice to meet you all!

Hi, 

My name is Marga. I am an English Teacher. 

I am a happy and funny girl! 

🙋






Here you have some information about me: 


🏠 I'm from Sant Llorenç, a small village in Mallorca. Now I'm living in Ibiza. 

💗 I love reading, swimming, listen to music and, of course, teaching. 

That is one of my favorite songs "my mind's for sale", Jack Johnson: 

For me, STORYTELLING is a very useful tool and have a double function when we use it in our class. I think it is USEFUL because children love stories, colors, characters ... and it also has a DOUBLE FUNCTION: on the one hand, the story allows us to use English in a playful and attractive way for the youngest and, on the other hand, through stories we can work on values, feelings, vocabulary, among others, while we are communicating in English.

So, now, it is important to analyze why to use Digital Storytelling in class. I think it is very important to take advantage of new technologies to offer a good quality education. Through online tools, we can personalize our stories and adapt them to our students, to their interests, to the vocabulary that interests us to work, and to many other things that may arise throughout the course.

I always say that, when thinking about expectations and goals with things, the best you can do is be realistic, so...

EXPECTATIONS OF THIS COURSE:

- Discover a wide range of tools to work with Storytelling in class.

- Increase my creativity.

GOALS:

- Improve to be a better teacher.

- Create as many stories to use in class as I can.
