I've always liked September (in a childlike way as I have my birthday then), getting new school stuff, the smell of new books - and, of course, new things to learn! Today I have some brilliant courses that I hope you'll find useful in some kind of Back to School style.

Get Ready For School: Teacher's Pack
I've read through my blog (almost 200 posts!) and found all the notes that may be an inspiration before you embark on yet another year-long school adventure. All of the ideas were tested on human beings and all of us not only survived, but had quite a lot of fun.

5 Instant Fillers for Awkward Silence in the Classroom
We all experience classes that suddenly go awkward - a topic we hate and really can't elaborate on, students that only want to fall asleep or a memory of a cup of coffee when another's been due for a while. Sometimes it calls for a game or a nice role-play, but sometimes, to put it bluntly, I can't even, so I use my last resort: fillers that are always there, ready to use.

7 Free Online Classes in August
Apart from the upcoming school year, I think August is a perfect month to work on self development - one has more time off and it's easier to feel motivated when it comes to actual finishing the course. The courses I found for you are really interesting and I hope you'll find something suitable.

Lesson Idea for a Horribly Slow Class (15+)
I enjoy teaching during summer as nobody takes those classes too seriously and you're free to include some unconventional materials. The Horribly Slow Murderer with the Extremely Inefficient Weapon is a 10-minute short film that will definitely inspire an interesting lesson!

7 Free Online Courses in July
I found some lovely courses that I really want to share with you, as I'm sure you might spare some time and learn something new. Below you will find a nice selection of courses focusing on testing, storytelling, children, wellness... I'm sure you'll find something you like!

The night is dark and full of neons (lesson plan for +18)
You may not be familiar with a Polish national treasure a.k.a. CD Projekt RED, you may not even realise massive hype connected with probably the most expected game since Red Dead Redemption 2 (at least for some), but you must have heard of two names that have been coming up in trending on the internet for the past ten days - Keanu Reeves and Cyberpunk 2077.

7 Free Online Courses in June
If you ever feel like there's something you should do apart from relaxing, maybe a short online course or two... Well, here I am, ever-watchful! I've found seven nice and free courses that may be quite interesting for teachers... even those ready for their summer break!

3 no-prep ideas for outdoor classes
I'm not overly fond of hot summer days myself, but I'm even less fond of classrooms with no air-conditioning, so here are my top three ideas for outdoor classes, they worked brilliantly for me and I can only hope you'll have at least as much fun as my students did.

7 Free Online Courses in May
Everybody likes May (or at least sweet potential of May mini break), the most fragrant month of the year - who doesn't like the smell of lilac? We can almost smell the scent of summer break, and when we relax a bit, it's nice to take care of our development. I found some great free online courses you may enjoy this May - which one do you think is the best option for you?
