Fun Reading for English teachers
Motivating people and building bridges
Our main goal is to become a bridge between schools and university, between stories and readers. We would like to show the world some wonderful short stories written by young Chilean authors. There are many talented writers among our students, whose works are usually forgotten and, as a consequence, lost. We saw some potential there and wondered how we could put to good use all the marvelous stories written by them. At the same time, we could perceive a need for original stories that children at our schools could feel closer to, and identified with.
We believe in the value of every written piece, and we are also confident that its use as teaching material is a significant contribution to many schools.
Our dream is, then, to generate pedagogical moments that are based on the magical stories that can be found on this site, delighting both, audience and writers, as well.
