Hello everyone! Hope you are all fine! I see you are all very tanned! You are really enjoying ‘las playas de Barcelona’

Today I would like to write something about the Sagrada Familia, the only temple still in construction in the world (125 years in construction). It is also the only temple in the world that receives donations by volunteer people to continue the construction, as it does not get any funds from the Government. I find it a gigantic and pageantry building; I was impressed by all the little details that were worked up on it.

This is the most famous work of Gaudi; he dedicated all his life to this building; he would even sleep inside the temple to have more time to work on it. The construction of the temple started in 1881 and the initiator was ‘Josep Maria Bocadella’. The beginning was very difficult because of budget problems (which are still ongoing and this is one of the reasons why this great temple is still in construction). The first budget for the building of the temple was 1034 € (125 years ago!), a money which Bocadella kept under the floor tiles of his store because he was afraid someone could steal that. (more…)

Hello everybody!

Today we want to introduce you to another one of our teachers, Alex. You might know him for being a football fan but if you keep on reading you will get to know a lot more about him.

Check out to what he has to answer to our questionnaire…

Good morning. Can you tell us what’s your name and where are you from?

Well, my name is an easy one, Alex, a quite international name as well. My surname, Superviel, quite French. I don’t know the origin of this surname, I guess I owe it to a ‘traveller’ ancestor!

I was born in the south of Spain but moved to Barcelona when I was just 3 months old and lived there since then. Therefore, I consider myself more ‘Barcelonés’ than ‘Andaluz’.

Let us know, why did you become a teacher? (more…)
