Old loves.  A few years after retiring, ... I do not miss the old teaching days nor do I have a longing for academic research. There are things, though, I love to relive in my mind: • sharing classroom projects with my students, generating learning systems and weaving language tramas with them. • meeting and sharing experiences with dear colleagues from all over the world. New loves.  Music was an adolescence love of mine. In my old school days I conducted the school choir, wrote music for it, and played piano and organ when necessary. Now that I have been given a new lease on life, I have gone back to music and am spending much of my energy as a writer (mainly of lyrics) and as a composer. This page is dedicated to all my students and to my former and present-day friends.
