This is Arnold. I live in Alkmaar,

Hello, everyone!
I have been an EFL teacher for 30
years and have enjoyed every minute of a career that has spaned
from 5th grade to college.
Since 1998 I have been committed
to CALL and WELL: computer-assisted and Web-enhanced language
learning. From email exchanges to task-based projects, custom-made
interactive exercises and blogging, I've guided my students in
broadening their horizons, learning English, and using new technologies
and software hands-on. In the past two years I have found that
young learners are very enthusiastic about these tools, and can
achieve quite a lot in a short time through learning in a fun
way!
I met your teacher, Dafne Gonzalez,
when I joined the Webheads in Action and we have collaborated
very closely on different projects for three years. We have also
met f2f twice. I was very happy when she came up with this challenge!
So... it'll be a pleasure to be with
you all online to talk briefly about a beautiful 7-year old bridge
that is closely related to two major events in Portugal's recent
past: the reconstruction process of the eastern end of Lisbon
and Expo '98, the last World's Fair of the 20th century and millenium.

her own financial planning firm in the United States. The last
ten years have been spent here in Frankfurt where she has brought
her financial, business, and management experience to her English

Barbara's unusual background of sociology/psychology and business
knowledge coupled with a relaxed and appealing teaching style
allows her to provide her students what they need to communicate
effectively in English, whether they require English for general
