If we act up in class... will you punish us?:eyebrows:

You'll get a good caning if you don't behave. Or locked in the cupboard, I've seen that done.

How fun!

One of my ex-teaching colleagues was a dominatrix in university. She taught us everything she knew.

Me! Angela

I am not very good at languages, but I like to learn some Italian ('cos I love Juve! :jvefan: ). From the other threads, I've picked up: -

La aula = the classroom
La voglia = the will
Non parlare inglese! = Don't speak English!
Ho un freddo! = I have a cold! (hope you get well soon, CH!)

That's what i can remember without looking! there was a verb used that looked like preoccupy, but it seemed to have a different meaning when used in that sentence.
Ho & abiamo = I have & we have (first person singular & plural)
Sono & Siamo = I am & we are (first person singular & plural)

I suck at verbs BTW, which is why I am not good at languages!

Oh, and how do we type the accents? I can do so on Word, but not in the message box.

Let's see how many people would be interested in following a course in Italian. :cheesy:

It's not something I can organize overnight, but I've been thinking about it and I have an idea about how I would do it. :cool2:

Let me just say that it is a matter of writing course material, so once that is done, it continues to exist and people can use it later on. This is not something that you need to do a schedule. However, it would probably be optimal to have a common stream at least for some, so that they can follow along approximately at the same pace and have the feeling of being in it together.

I thought this was already all available on the MIT OpenCourseWare and Khan Academy web sites.

[Quetzalcoatl]

I bought a book to teach myself Italian and stopped using it after 2 chapters. But yeah!

 

[icemaη]

I voted in. I'm not sure how I'm going to find the time for this, but I don't want to miss out on the opportunity.

 

[Enron]

I think the idea is that it will be "go on your own". Otherwise it would be quite difficult with all the conflicting time zones.

 

[icemaη]

But I don't want to be left behind in class
