I am a secondary teacher of English in Southern Spain. I studied MFL in Jaén and I got a DPSI certificate in Law in England. I started my teaching career in Newcastle back in 2000, where I lived for 3 years. Once I returned home, I taught in a public school and got ready to sit the "oposiciones" exam, which I passed!!! Currently, I am teaching in Spain, which has become my definite residence in since 2004.

"La edad del pavo" = The age of the turkey*

at that "awkward" age.


"La edad del pavo es insoportable"
"Déjalos hombre, que están en la edad del pavo"
"Mi hijo/a está en la edad del pavo"
"Qué pavo tienen estas niñas" (This particular expression "tener pavo" refers to the particular and "special" way of speaking of teenagers, specially girls, have in that particular moment of their life. More generally, it also refers to the things said and done at that age).
