WELCOME TO SCHOOL YEAR 19-20!

The bell is about to ring!! and I am happy to welcome each and everyone of you to a new school year at EOI Pontevedra. It is hard to believe.... but it is that time of the year again!!! 

I hope you all had a very good summer break to be ready for a wonderful start. Are you willing to embark on the exciting journey that begins with the new school year?? There will be lots of opportunities for language learning!!!

Starting over is always an exciting time of year for most students – learning how to navigate the classroom, meeting friends and the teacher, and reconnecting with the old ones will likely be the primary focus of interest for the first few days. As in any time of change and transition, this can also be a rather stressful period; these are a few things you can do to settle back into school:

1. Establish a routine to make sure an early start is not too much of a shock.

2. Go and buy some exciting new kit!! What about picking up a fun new school notebook or pencil case... some brand-new stationery stuff.

3. Have a positive attitude. Make sure you see the school year as a new opportunity rather than the end of fun.

4. Stay organised and get into the habit of preparing everything you need to make your English learning easier.

5. Introduce a new school year´s resolution. Choose your own challenge or goal and stick to it! How about ending up the school year watching TV series in English with no subtitles and managing to get most of it!

If you are really looking forward to the new school year, send us your own tips and goals in the comments section below or let us know how you are coping!! Let´s develop our own passion for learning together!
