I just want to share with my big music love of the moment : Charlie Winston. He's a genius, I saw him a few weeks ago in live, and it was amazing. He knows a lot of things in music : he plays guitar, piano, he sings (soooo well) and he's also a beatbox, you know, with his mouth. He has a really good sens of the scene, sharing with his public, giving all of himself. I listen to his album everyday or almost, I wanna dance when I hear his music.

So if you don't know much about Charlie Winston (no more than Like a hobo or In your hands) please, listen to him on deezer or youtube, it's just so magic

Oh dear, i saw him last year (i mean, school year, so... i think it was in january, this year) at a party in Paris. He sang two or three songs beautifully. It was damn great, it's so a sexy-and-nice guy.

He was a bit drunk. Graouuu

I love his song 'Boxes', it makes me feel restored, and... like i was in a cotton's ocean.

Actually, I created this topic because I couldn't find any website like this one. But I didn't look for it a lot... Maybe there is a "Glamour UK" Forum. Don't know...

Owh, what a chance !

One of my English teacher was also a genius. I was ... some kind of in love with him, and he made me love this language and the anglo-saxon culture truly and deeply.

I also had a great teacher (and I still have him), but in History. But as I'm doing a European section, he teaches us in english, and I really love his lessons, they're lively, funny ... Last year, he made us realise a short movie (he is fond of cinema, and teaches that subject too), with the scenario we wanted (as long as it was linked with the Seconde's programm). You may have guessed the the story was completely crazy, but it was such a good experience ! This year, we all choosed different options, so we are not all in the same class, but we are still together for History lessons. During one of them, we watched the making-of of this movie, we were all almost crying - and the teacher too. (but we haven't finished the movie yet, the sound has to be done). He told us that he has never been that happy to meet again a class. And I think it is the same for me, he is the best teacher I have ever had.

Gosh, I'm jealous ! I never had any good english teacher : the first one was a depressive middle age woman who was listening Mozart while she was teaching, then I got an old witch (and bitch) crossed with a mummy, followed by a veeeery sloooow minding African teacher with a impossible accent and a poor english, and the last one was staring at birds for minutes at every single lesson (at least I'm now able to identify the magpie song !)... and I'm actually kind to them ! :rolleyes:



Please correct my mistakes !

No teacher could have disgusted me of this language, ever, no matter how bad! But I feel for some of my friends who had terrible teachers to begin with and who have had a hard time catching up afterwards.
But I must say one of them did make a difference for me. I met her in seconde, I was in depression and thought of myself as profoundly stupid and devoid of talent. One day we had an short story to write and I swear, when she gave us back our copies, I almost broke up in tears reading her comments. No one had ever made me such compliments and I knew she really meant it, and I gave credit to what she said. I still read it when I feel like crap.

Well, I don't have the feeling that I learned English at school at all ; as far as I remember, I've always had terrible teachers, or at least they were not so bad but not good either. In middle school, they lacked authority, so I pretty much spent all my English classes doing crosswords or chatting with my friend. In high school, I just felt very bored in English class. I felt like it was kind of useless, and was under the impression we were learning the same thing again and again.

Luckily, my step-grand-father and one of my cousin are English, so I've been used to hearing English since I was little, and my mother sent me to summer camps or exchange programs in English-speaking countries several times. Thanks to her, I've been to Australia, Canada, England... That's where I learned English, not in school.

It reminds me that my English teacher last year (in terminale) had a pityful english. His accent was terrible, he pronounced everything like french words. According to him, I was brilliant aha!
That's a luck that I like to speak English and that I studied it alone, because I wouldn't have had 18 at the A-level thanks to him...

[Jehn.]

Reminds me of my former Spanish teacher : she was Russian and French, so she was speaking Spanish with a very weird accent which made everything coming out of her mouh hardly understandable.

It was funny listening to her, though.

[Tangerine]

I've had the same Englishe teacher the 3 years I was in high school. She was really great. I already loved English, but she made me love it even more (looking forward to seeing her again in 2 weeks). She is FOND of English culture, she always comes to class with a huge mug of tea, well, she's great!
And when I started uni, from the very 1st day, I almost fell il love with one of my teachers lol. Well, that's funny because he's short, he smokes pipe, wears a hat, he seems a bit insignificant, but he has a HUGE culture! That man is awesome! He teaches us sexuality in the 18th this year. So yesterday we talked about sexual innuendoes in Gulliver's Travels, pee, poop, etc. Love it!

When I was in High School my english teacher was amazing very friendly!I loved her!
Today I have a new teacher...she's unpleasant and depressing,stare:

You're so lucky. My English teachers weren't very great. Lessons were always boring. But this year, i have begun Business English, and i love it.
