     life – whether good or bad – leaves an impact on us which
     later on becomes a learning experience. Time has taught      Life
     me how to take fast decisions. Some were useless, some       Without Internet
     even  bad  (happens  every  time)  some  were  good  (very

     youngest of all the teachers in secondary teaching staff.   Internet  is  one  of  the  most  important  inventions  ever
     She was our Science teacher. She used to be strict and firm   and  life  would  stop  without  it.  Internet  is  everyone’s
     when necessary but in general was very friendly. She made   best friend for its countless amounts of information and
     us laugh and her classes were always looked forward to.     services it provides. It has the ability to connect people
