It's important to work on the characters of our young and teenagers.

This is the song that I choose to play during my Mother's Day Lessons.
Ancients but very touching to everyone in the class... I think.

*** funny things is when I played the English version, the Tagalog/Philippines version keep ringing in my head...
*** I suspects it's because I heard the original version in Philippines...

enjoy and let's make the world a better place to live...

I am not sure what version should I play for my class.

I contemplating between my favourite version or the version that will fit their imaginations.

I made my decision and played the one I think they will like.

When I play this on my large screen make up of 3 projectors :
"Oh my God! They look so young"
Imagine my satisfaction and me smiling - I felt connected with them.
Version 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?gl=SG&v=wMnoKFi5GYs

Ok, this is my favourite because of the orchestra and westlife.
Version 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSALYu15V5M

And, of course, the best and original coldplay (watch the drum/drumer - he make this song special!).
Version 3:


Enjoy and have a nice weekend - my friend.

"cer, can you play us a song?", one student asked eagerly.

(I look up, oh, a extremely quiet student. )

"cer, please lar. if you play the song, we can dance for you.", another student volunteered.

(mmm. I wonder who are the dancer?)

"cer.", the whole class urged.

They choose EXO - a kpop group.
The moment I played on my three projectors, the dancers leap up to the floor and the whole classroom turn into a concert instantaneously.
(this met my intention of using music to add fun into learning but 10 times beyond/exceeded my expectations of fun!).

Enjoy, my dear friend. Have a nice weekend.

I love my work especially when I am touched by the wit and talent of my students from time to time.

Thank you very much!

One day, I play the following song (one of my best) and a top student started to sing along.

You can trust that my hair stands up thru-out the whole session.

Enjoy:

Life is a game? your signature reminds me three stories but I'll pen it down when I'm free. Busy busy busy - why must we be so busy?

Anyway:

Many of my students are learning Korean.
Most of the time, it's evening class and they have to leave at 6pm. (yes, a class can stretch till 6pm in poly, exam can stretch beyond 6).

Once, I played the following theme song of a Korean drama happily thinking that they will like it (just like me).
Well, they do like it but they had never heard of the song before.

Then, I realised that as a teenager, although they followed kpop singers very closely but they might not watch Korean drama (unlike many of us).

This is dedicated to life is a game?
Hope you like it (again!)
