CPD webinars alert! Next week, @ADerecskei will discuss strategies to help our adult students stuck in the intermediate plateau. The week after that, YL expert Angela will look at how to teach young learners 1-1 in an online setting. More info below! my.demio.com/ref/XsLPs2rXpS7…
Can't wait to try getting my ss to mute themselves on Zoom for a good old pron drill - thanks @MarkWordSmith! Just realised there's a whole bunch of things I need to play around with - private chat, ss taking headphones off for info gaps... disappearing txts on GDocs?! #IELT20
Having a great time at #IELT20! The format works surprisingly well. Useful groupwork, I can attend sessions inbetween my online classes and even the "garden" was fun. Only downside was having to run up and down 6 flights of stairs for Amazon delivery in the middle of a talk 😅
🟣 Are you a teacher of English, Spanish &/or Catalan who works in the #Barcelona area?
💜 Help us to better understand the current situation for #teachers
🟪 Take 5-mins to participate in our anonymous survey about working conditions under #CONVID19forms.gle/erLCRhVi7uhF6mXm7
#IATEFL19 hope you can make my talk on Wed 3rd, 1645 in Rm 20. I'll also be asking:
- why are 'global issues' only a 'special interest' for IATEFL?
- why doesn't IATEFL support teachers who are struggling, sacked or striking?
- what would make 'social justice' in ELT universal?
@tom_flaherty: Move away from evidence-based education to evidence-informed classrooms. We should take what we hear/read with a pinch of salt and analyse it in the context of our own classrooms. #JJMMEIM
