Trying to teach...

Hi people! Here I am again... Now I want to tell you something very cool... I'm trying to teach some friends of mine! Well, it's not easy but the most important thing happened... They're very interesting! I don't think I'm able to be a good teacher, but I believe that eveything gets better when we pratice. Most of my "students" can't understand English, one of the reasons is the way that teachers are teaching English. The teachers only ask the students to translate texts and they tell "something" about verb "to be". I realized that students hate these things and I'm trying to teach them the basic, or, at least, everything that I know. I have about 8 students, but this number can change, because are more people interested. I have some problems, I don't know if the material will be enough, I need to have a blackboard etc. I think I'll try to use a real school, next to my house, like a volunteer ( Escola da Família) and maybe, teach better...
