Welcome to my English blog!

With this blog I intend to post information related to my English lessons. I also hope to connect my blog to those of my students and in this way have some fun blogging and doing our schoolwork at the same time!

Would you like to have a game of tennis?

And now for something completely different. If you like playing tennis but you're not overly competitive, you might like to join my tennis club. Please, have a look at the website, because - you may not believe this - at present I'm the club's web editor.
If you're interested, visit: www.tennisclubdltc.nl and if you like it, you're welcome to come and play a game, too.

English words

Dear students,

Since I also ask you to start up your own English blog, I should set an example by at least posting something more recent than 2009, shouldn't I? Time flies when you're having fun....
Anyway, if, while blogging, you need an online dictionary which provides you with the meaning as well as the pronunciation of English words, go to: http://dictionary.cambridge.org. Enjoy blogging and I'll keep you posted!

Useful site!

Dear students,

I found a useful site for you on which you can practise your verb tenses (amongst other things). This is the link: http://www.englishpage.com/. Go to "choose a tutorial", and select "verb tenses".
Perhaps the explanations are somewhat different from what you are used to in class, but the exercises are good practice when you are learning your verb tenses.
Enjoy!
