What have I done?
First of all, a few words about myself:
I was born and bred in Britain (with abject apologies for the awful alliteration). However, I have lived permanently in Norway since 1972 and have a wife, three children, six grandchildren and a cat. We also also have three deceased cats reposing peacefully in the garden after long and hopefully happy lives in our family.
I have been a teacher all my working life, first thirteen years in lower secondary school, then twenty-odd years in upper secondary school. For the last few years I have been teaching future teachers at college level.
I have also had the opportunity to write a number of textbooks for upper secondary English courses and an English Grammar for teachers titled Of Course You Can. In addition to these books, I have made several online courses in English for various users.
