Let’s Talk: What the Heck Happened? (review)
I don’t usually buy extra teaching tools, but once in a while my willpower proves to be particularly weak. Of course, it requires something extraordinary, but when I saw conversation cards created by Ewa Torebko, I simply knew I would love them.

7 Free Online Courses in September
Well, hello, autumn! Are you all excited about the new school year? I can almost imagine your enthusiastic response! I want to support your indubitable happiness, so I’ve found some cool online courses that will help you get into the teaching mood.

That is evil: back to school!
August is one of the most difficult months for teachers. On one hand it’s still the full month of holidays, but on the other hand that’s just evil.
That’s why I prepared a Spotify list full of songs that probably will reflect your attitude.
Enjoy!
