Melton moments 2

Students and IELTS candidates at Melton College enjoy the spring sunshine during a recent lunchtime. The young folk on the left are from Germany; for an earlier post of Spanish students, go here.

Spanish success story!

One of the features of York and many other UK tourist centres is EFL (English as a foreign language) teaching. I mentioned this in the very first post on this blog.  I've just had two lovely weeks teaching nine or ten different nationalities here at Melton College on Holgate Road. These are Catalan Spanish students from earlier this year, receiving their end-of-session reports on the delightfully sunny terrace at the back of the main building.

Micklegate Bar 2, York

A classic view to mark my return to the blog after a few weeks' absence during which I did have time to look at some of your posts. This was taken on the way back from Melton College, an English language school where I occasionally work on supply.

For the contrasting view of the other side of Micklegate Bar from within the walls, see this older post. The outer face is more elegant, but each has its interest, and the older post shows off the arches more effectively. 

As you might guess from the safety fencing, the road is under repair, presumably as part of the Blossom Street junction improvements.
