Using Apple Keynote

Greetings!

I use Apple's Keynote application to teach English to my students. Some students take lessons one to one, and others take lessons in small groups.

I present the lessons that are on an iPad via a small wifi called an "AppleTV" to HDTV screens. The ATV links to the iPad wirelessly, and to the HDTV via an HDMI cable.

I create the presentations on my Apple iMac. I use DropBox to move the lessons from My computer to the iPad. I usually create my own lessons but I also use the lessons offered

Dear Captain,

It seems everything is fine again. But there are often different kinds of questions in Nkita's simple brain. And I'd always love to hear your views about them. Hehehe.

Captain, you still haven't answered me why you like calling me little wild flower. I am really curious. I sometimes think I am a mild flower too. How's Kaili and Jackie? Are they taller now? You told me Jackier was almost as tall as Nikita. Does he have a little girlfriend now? Is he rebellious?

My Jakarta Holidays

It was near midnight when I started writing this blog. It was raining cats and dogs, and normally the best time to hit the snooze button. Unfortunately, I drank a bucketful of coffee in the meeting today, so now I am wide awake. That's really ironic, isn't it?

For the past few weeks, it's been raining nearly everyday and tonight it's no exception. While I was grappling for things to write, suddenly this rain reminds me of my Jakarta's visit early this year. It was spur of the moment decision to g

What to write about?

As I finished all my English courses and chatting with friends is not enough for my writing I decided that I need to write more. That’s why I decided to make my blog.

Come my tear to help me

One who goes never come back again
My heart wants weeping till resurrection

If you are at elementary level, your first dictionary is the vocabulary list of your English textbook you started to learn from. These lists usualy can be found at the back of books. When you

That you're only "Human"

Not that I'm saying that this is perfect,but then nothing ought to be perfect anyway.
So I suppose there will always come that time when you need to lie about a certain thing, another when will you feel the urge to take what isn't yours,another when your feelings will be so messed up you will end up breaking someone.
