- 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.

"Mandar a alguien a hacer puñetas = To send someone to do some edgings*
To send someone to hell. In Spanish, this expression is less offensive and milder than its English equivalent. So it constitutes a polite way to ask somebody to leave you in peace.
"¡Vete a hacer puñetas!"
"Entró con tan malas formas que lo mandaron a hacer puñetas"
"Si no se presenta hoy a la cita, lo mando a hacer puñetas"
