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. And, of course, I do - that's why I want to share some ideas on how to use them in your classroom.

Some say that the true evil of English lies in its proverbs and fixed phrases.

I prepared something for kids, teens and adults, so you can enjoy them with all your students - both online and offline!

Spring energisers (+ free worksheet)
There are people who are oh! so energetic when they feel spring - well, that's not me!

Let's travel with Google Earth!
Google Earth is 20 years old this June! Have you checked it recently?

As always, I want to share my favourite features.

Storytelling for a Change: Stereotypes are Silly! (no-prep lesson plan)
