The Omniversum is a unique cinema in the Hague. On entering the building, you buy tickets to see a film on a gigantic screen. The screen is 36m wide and 18m high. The sheer pleasure of watching a film unfold in front of your eyes equals lying comfortably in soft armchairs; the pleasure also means becoming...

The photo above shows the Binnenhof in the Hague. Somewhere in the background, besides the charmingly pink geraniums, you may be able to see the waters of the pond (or lake according to some sources) of Hofvijver. What is, however, the focus of the photo is hidden further in the background – the Dutch...

W 1990 roku pojawiły się w Polsce pierwsze Kolegia dla nauczycieli języków obcych, których to nauczycieli brakowało wtedy w szkołach. W 2015 roku zamykane są na dobre te instytucje, bo rynek nasycono, bo niż demograficzny zawitał do szkół, bo pieniądze zaczęły odgrywać większą rolę niż dbałość o to, aby...

Teachers’ life is, generally speaking, mobile. In order to reach out to everyone and to be frequently on top of things, teachers move a lot, run a lot, run errands, jog in their free time (if they have any) or jog their students’ memory when in the classroom. From my own observations, a dynamic teacher means...

Time flies so quickly. I’ve just noticed my last blog post was in March. Now it’s mid-May and, luckily, the sun is up in the sky much longer. Brighter days inspire us and give us a lot of food for thought. I’ve decided to write about the concept of time in teaching, about timing and classroom management...

Spring is in the air! The season marks the new beginning, the generally perceived rebirth after the wintry period of hibernation and darkness. “Spring is a true reconstructionist” (H. Timrod). Together with spring, we somehow return to our roots as spring plants take root from their cuttings. However, spring...

Well, well, well…. Meow, meow, meow…. It’s the first time in my life I’ve been sharing my living space with a cat. Fitka is a special cat, as any cat is special to their owners, co-owners, flatmates or…intruders (in my case). Cats go their way, cats have a way with virtually everything and everyone (I don’t...

Wow! They did! They made it to the top! Watching such moments on TV, I do feel proud of being Polish. As H. Ford once said: “Coming together is a beginning; keeping together is progress; working together is success.” Anyhow, the only tribute I can give myself to the wonderful people standing behind this...

Entering a bookshop in a foreign country is so invigorating; you see all the books there neatly categorized and inviting you just to taste them. The majority of them is in the official language of the country you’re in. Fortunately? Unfortunately? Well, to me it’s truly inciting and extremely motivating....

 “Love Is In the Air”, “Love Is All Around” or “Love, Sweet Love” – the repertoire of love songs or songs about love seems endless. Any new season brings a new song, usually with a new starlet that disappears once the song has been played long enough on the radio, etc. There are some songs, however,...
