Sant Martin


SANKT MARTIN

Am 12. November haben wir mit unseren Schülern den Martinstag gefeiert. Wir haben eine kurze Präsentation über dieses Fest gemacht und dann haben wir Laternen gebastelt. Und am Ende haben wir mit diesen Laternen, die Martinslieder singend, einen kleinen Umzug organisiert.

Unsere Schüler waren sehr zufrieden, dass sie ein interessantes Fest aus Deutschland kennenlernen konnten, und so konnten sie erfahren, dass die Deutschen nicht nur das Oktoberfest feiern.

An Inspector Calls



An Inspector Calls


The English Department has organized an activity with students of Intermediate Level 2, Advanced Level 1 and Advanced Level 2. 


Last Friday 23rd October some students and teachers went to see the popular play “An Inspector Calls” by J.B. Priestley. It was represented by Madrid Players at Colegio La Inmaculada Marillac (C/García de Paredes, 41).


The play is faithful to the original script and follows the typical pattern of mystery works so it was quite easy for the students to understand.

The students were delighted to have the opportunity of practicing their English outside class.

A trembling hand reaching for a doorknob
An unconfident step into a new world
Almost fifty eyes staring right at you
Yeah, I know, had that feeling too

Among tons of new words and sounds,
You barely dare to say something out loud
You may not notice it at first, it’s true
But something is flowering just inside of you

You will have to work hard on occasion
You could also have to deal with frustration
When you feel that the suitable words
Simply don’t want to come

Eventually, however, the effort you made
Has its reward, it is well paid.
At that moment you remember why you enrolled
Now it seems as if you were speaking fireworks

You finally understand that you’re not just learning
Words, a few rules and awkward spelling
You are learning ideas, points of view and life skills
It’s up to you: If you want to learn, you will.

Back to school – Lyrics

Hey,yo! what's up?
Hey, how is it going? do you want to go out next Thursday?
I can't, on Thursday I'm taking classes
Classes on what?
I'm improving my English
Ah, sounds interesting! And what are you doing to improve it?
are you going to a private academy? a private teacher maybe?
No, none of those ... I'm going .. I'm going ...

Back, back ... back to school
you can also enter the classes, they are not full

I'd like to improve my English but maybe I'm too old
You're completely wrong, this is your wake-up call

Going back to classes? I don't know if that's for me
I'm afraid of being bored, maybe it's not my cup of tea

Don't be a coward, this is like Hogwarts
the magic you always wanted and you are looking forward

You will find it here, not too far it's near
the place where all your fears are going to disappear

I'm not convinced yet, there might be some possibilities
tell me more, what about the facilities?

They have many classrooms and even a library
This year it's their 10th anniversary

What are the classes like? Are dynamic and interactive?
You must participate. They want you to be active

Surrounded by students, sometimes playing games
You'll have a great time, no matter knowing their names

No one said it was easy, don't get me wrong
the path is hard and the journey is long

Learning a new language is leaving your comfort zone
It's something you can't do all on your own

You'll sound sometimes silly and "makes" many mistakes
if you persevere you'll have what it takes

I don't speak very well, I need help, mayday
Enroll to this school, go ahead, make my day

I'm looking for a title that could be official
You'll get one with your full name not only your initials

How much does it cost? that's my greatest concern
You can have two payments during the first term

You pay very little, it's quite cheap
and you will receive 5 hours a week

And where could I find a place like this?
EOITC, where else could it be?

EOITC? It doesn't ring a bell
At  1 Oregano Street, write it down well

I'm not sure yet, I have mixed feelings
Don't try to conceal it, the idea is appealing

Follow my advice don't think twice
the classes are great and the teachers are nice

So don't be a fool, don't be an idiot
and go back to school. That's it. Period!


(chorus)
Don't be a fool, don't be a fool
use your brain, follow this rule
Don't be a fool, don't be a fool
if you want to learn a language, go back to school
(x2)

Don't wait, don't hesitate
before it's too late, do it my way

Yeah ... 2015 ... that's the year

I'm going to sign up right now and I'll improve my career

Song by Daniel Calderón

Concurso "MI EOI, TU EOI" - Inglés (Código I6)


There is a very curious place
and it is not long far away
where you can find a short cut way
which will lead you to win your race

If you want to know the place I say
you’ll have to get the hidden word
written in a language that you may
learn from the Babel Tower Lord

He raised the tower and digged a trench
and built the bridge with thousands of men
There was spoken German and French
and a bit of English now and then

But only this man could translate
words said by the rest of the world
Hurry up! or you will be late
Ask him for the place. Find the word.

I’m sure that he’s waiting for you
He has an eoi center in your town
Look for this place up and down
and you’ll become a winner too.

My English school 

Clearly most people think that the knowledge is one of the important values that one person can achieve along his life. Consistently I have always tried to improve and to learn about the people and the things around me.

Four years ago, I took one of the best decisions in my life, when I decided to begin to study English again. During the last years I have been taking care of my family but they began to need me in another way so I decided to return to the school.

The EOI has let me meet other people that think like me and to discover other culture through the videos and readings what we watch and read in class. Also it let me discover other opinions and point of view using the study of the language for this purpose.

Currently I can write e-mail in English with other technical specialist and occasionally I can attend English presentations that help me at my job and I aware of that.

I can´t guess the future but I expect that in a few years our children speak English very well because of their bilingual schools and maybe the EOI can complete this skills with the knowledge of the culture and the way of thinking through other languages.

In my opinion, I am very lucky to study at the EOI. I think it´s a privilege and a chance that my city and my community give me and in conclusion I look forward to other people being able also enjoy to this opportunity.

Reading “Don Quixote”, written by Miguel de Cervantes, has become a tradition each April 23rd since 1996 to commemorate the World Book Day. 

The EOI can do the same by reading my free version, which would start this way:“In a place of Madrid, whose I am trying to remember, long time ago, specifically in 2004, an EOI, was built not only to teach languages to students (English, French and German), but also cultural activities to those students. 

A knight called Don Quixote lived there and started learning languages. A pot of English on Monday, Salpicón with German on Tuesday, English duel on Wednesday, German lentils on Thursday. On Friday… he deserved a rest as well. 

After class, his horse “Rocinante” was always waiting for him outside to take him home. This way, he spends week after week happy in the EOI.  He is happy in the EOI because there he met Sancho Panza, and a real friendship came up between them, which will last forever, like the languages he learnt. 

As you will probably have guessed, the place was Tres Cantos and the character is like me. I am very pleased to belong to this EOI. As Don Quixote, I am learning English and German and I have met interesting people here and my bike is waiting for me outside to take me home.

Alice´s Mad Tea Party




2015 marks the 150th anniversary of the publication of Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll. 

On 18th March, students from all levels participated in a workshop which involved many different activities related to this topic, such as reading and recording parts of the story, writing their own riddles, learning about Carroll’s biography and characters in the novel. Most groups completed the workshop by designing original creative material about the book, which can be seen below

Also, a Mad Tea Party was held (see pictures at the end of this post) in which students were able to ‘experience’ some of Alice’s adventures. We all had a wonderful time.
