  Hi there!👋👋👋 I'm Isabel María, an English teacher in Sevilla, Spain. This blog is a space for you to learn about the English language and culture. I invite you all to explore it. I hope to clear up your possible doubts on vocabulary, grammar, phonetics and culture in an accessible and enjoyable way. Little by little we will build a resource bank (I accept your ideas and suggestions) and improve our knowledge providing new tools to help students' learning.  TimeToast, EdPuzzle, Pixton, Story Jumper and Genially will be some of the new tools we will enjoy in the presentation of contents. Let's go! Here are some links to introduce my blog:   How did the US became independent but inseparable from Britain?
