Perfect Tips for Teacher Development (book review)
0 Comments
/
You may already know I'm a fan of CPD. The more I teach, the more I realise I have to learn. The more experienced trainer I am, the more people I meet who show me how to improve and develop. When I saw Jack C. Richards' 50 Tips for Teacher Development, I loved it from the very first moment.

Time management (not only) for teachers (book review)
It took me half a year to finish one book - seriously, and it's not because I'm a slow reader, quite contrary. It's a book addressing one of my greatest problems (apart from procrastination and struggling with taking over the world) which is time management, something a work-from-home person may have issues with - I sure did.

7 Free Online Courses in November
I love November - it's my favourite month of the year! Whenever I can, I take a week off just to chill a bit and enjoy the bliss of a minibreak. I have grand plans to complete one of those promising online courses I found. As usual, I share them with you - maybe you'll find the course I should take this month?

More stories: StoryBits
It looks like November is more of a storytelling month than I thought - last week I shared the storytelling coursebook (remember about the contest, you can win a copy of the book!), and today I'll show you the magic of pictures: Storybits.

Stories (not only) for Halloween - book review
I'm not a fan of Halloween - I believe there's no point in scaring evil spirits away if they manage to roam free on earth just once a year. Yet the long and mysterious October evenings prompt us to spin dark tales accompanied by the sound of rain and wind against windows. These are probably the reasons I was told I'll like Angielski: Historie by Preston Publishing.

7 Free Online Courses in October
This year's IATEFL Poland conference was just awesome - I had so much fun and I can't wait for the next event which is, as you know, eduOctoberfest, a month full of webinars (2 sessions per day!). Alas, you need to pay for this event and it is in Polish, yet fear not for here I come with a bunch of free online courses you may enjoy in October!

7 Free Online Courses in September
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.

English is not easy... but it's wickedly funny! (book review for 18+)
I'm not overly fond of grammar books, but, naturally the comments made me take a look at this one. And I loved it immediately, the way you love something mischievous, daring and enjoyable at the same time.

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.
