I live on my own in Granada, Spain, in a little house with fabulous views of the Sierra Nevada in front and, at the back, out over the Vega, the wide river plain that extends far to the west, towards the Sierra Elvira and beyond.I was born in 1945 and grew up in Malvern Worcestershire. Teaching English brought me to Spain, where I have lived for most of the last thirty-odd years. In the 1990s I got very interested in the relationship between theory and classroom practice, content-based learning, and ther culture of the teenage classroom. Later I became more interested in pronunciation and testing & assessment, both in the context of English as a lingua franca. Recently, I have done spells as a voluntary English teacher in Vietnam.Since moving to Granada I have got particularly involved with life, times, and works of the local universal poet Federico Garcia Lorca and you can find a chronology of related events on my website https://granadalabella.eu/lorca-s-granada/life-times-and-works/index.html. The website is called Granada la Bella in reference to the dual character of the city as Beauty, on the one hand, but at the same time it has its dark side: the Beast. Before starting my writer’s blog https://sbandrewes.blogspot.com I, rather inconsistently, kept a blog on Granada-related themes at http://granadalabella.eu/granada-la-bella-blog.html.I am a socialist with wavering ideas aligned to the Socialist Workers Party in the UK.weniger sehen
