This is it, ladies and gentlemen. August. Back to school vibes. New students. New classes. Oh, the horror? Not really! Watch this short video to learn 5 easy tips that will help you make a great first impression in your classroom.
Let me introduce a new subject on my blog – I’ve been writing about teaching, CPD, books and recommendations, I’ve shared free lesson plans… and I realised that as a proper blogger I need to share some lifestyle advice. Today: what you need to get during BTS shopping spree.
As they say, hope for the best, prepare for the worst! Since we don’t know what the new school year brings, I decided to look for those online courses that focus primarily on working online – it’s always better to be prepared for teaching online.
As I wrote in my last post, I’m not writing anything this July – but I share short videos on my FB where you can watch me talking about my favourite RPGs. The first part is about Call of Cthulhu and other RPGs related to H.P. Lovecraft’s Mythos. I believe these are the games that EFL teachers will find easy to start with.
Have you started your summer break? If you stay in, you may take up a nice online course. As usual, I found seven free courses that will be perfect for the summer!
The way I can explain my attitude to English grammar is love-hate relationship. One of the books that helped me enormously was Uncovering Grammar by the amazing Scott Thornbury. I read it years ago, and I’ve just finished rereading it to see how many things I implemented and how much useful it could be to an average EFL teacher.
With the current admin work (reports, grades etc.) it’s quite difficult to come up with a lesson that would be easy to teach, funny and engaging. I absolutely understand this predicament, so I browsed through my blog and found 7 lesson plans you can easily adapt to your classroom – both online and offline. You can find something for all age groups and levels.
I love superheroes – who doesn’t? I also love lesson plans that need no preparation. And today I want to share a simple lesson plan that is easy to adapt for both online and offline classes, for kids, teens and adults… because, after all, we all want to be superheroes!
Or supervillains, but that would be me.
Can you feel the summer break? I’m sure you’re more than ready to relax, but as the Evil Empress of the World (in the Making) I must remind you there’s not rest for the wicked! I found 7 great free online courses, so you can work on your teaching superpowers!
