Adele

This is what I’m listening to these days.

Adele is, according to the BBC’s Sound of 2008 list, the most promising new music talent in UK. Her debut album is called 19 telling us about her age and it topped the British charts this year. In a way she sounds very much like her classmates Amy Winehouse and Kate Nash and she went to the same performing school in South London.

And now… fancy listening to her performing live (Adele_Chasing Pavements) ?

My pleasure

To all my students


With the holidays fast approaching I want to thank you all for being such nice students. It hasn’t been a good year to me on a personal level but my classes have helped me get over some very sad moments in my life.
I know this exam week has been tough on you; some of you took it lightly and some totally serious (to be honest, I really appreciate the serious ones). My biggest gripe is having wonderfully good students do badly, while some others that never seem to study enough do extremely well. But I can do little about it. I wish you well and hope you enjoy your summer holidays.
This photograph is the best I had and that’s the only reason to choose this class and not any other. I hope you don’t mind being in the limelight.
Good luck!!!
