About me:

My name is Rosa Saló and I've been an

English teacher in Catalan public secondary schools for more than 30 years.

I'm interested in ESL teaching, e-learning,

m-learning, cooperative working, PBL, ...

and ICT in general.

I consider myself very fortunate as I like teaching very much!!!!!

My favourite quote:

"Like water, be gentle and strong. Be gentle enough to follow the natural paths of the earth, and strong enough to rise up and reshape the world".

Brenda Peterson, American writer.
