China's Disaster...

For you...

I am writing this to congratulate all my former students, now in their last year at high school, for the excellent projects they have developed throughout the school year.

A new world, a new stage is about to begin in your lives.
Take advantage!!!
The future belongs to you!!

Tips....


A recent study showed that students who slept at least eight hours before a Maths test could better understand the problems, in a relation of three times more to those kids who have remained awaken all night to study.

Of course in the morning you must have breakfast, rather than a cup of coffee. And five minutes before the test starts it's a good idea to eat two candies, that bring up sugar levels which help the brain to work faster...
