Video genres for the language classroom

9 de novembro de 2014

Being a bit of a YouTube buff, myself, I’ve always been really keen on using videos with my students. So much interaction and such great ideas can come from just a couple of minutes (or even seconds) of audio-visual input! We often use movie snippets or interviews in order to bring the outside world into...Read More

Reading Made Easy for Learners

19 de outubro de 2014

by Teresa Carvalho

As a teenager, I read anything I could lay my hands on; that included all sorts of literature: good and bad. It didn’t matter as long as it was an interesting story ( from a young girl’s perspective, I might say). As a young English language learner, I was lucky to study at an English...Read More

Trocando o canal: usando o Youtube para melhorar o inglês

13 de outubro de 2014

by Fabiano Silveira

Olá a todos! Com certeza não são apenas os meus alunos que adoram ficar no Youtube assistindo a vídeos de bichinhos, piadas, cantores de chuveiro, pegadinhas e desafios do ice bucket. Parece que essa meninada está trocando a TV pela internet mesmo, passando altas horas em serviços de vídeo por streaming, procurando e assistindo a...Read More

Video Lessons Made Easier

17 de setembro de 2014

by Vivian Magalhães

In my book Teacher Tools, I open the chapter “Movie Time” with an email I received from a teacher who said that not only him, but “thousands of workmates don’t have time to prepare materials or to follow the recipes that many authors of books and/or presenters of workshops give us.” I go on to...Read More

We need to talk about English

17 de agosto de 2014

by Teresa Carvalho

I’ve recently come across Deena Boraie’s 2013 post on the TESOL webpage in which she lists the latest trends in EFL. Two of these trends immediately caught my eye: Change in the Goal of Teaching English: Our goals are no longer to transform our students into imitations of native speakers, but into “competent English-knowing bilinguals,”...Read More

Classroom design

1 de julho de 2014

by Michele Schwertner

We all love reading in my family – my husband and I are real bookworms. I myself also love books – I buy so many, I wonder if I’ll ever have the time to read all of them in this lifetime. I started buying books for my baby daughter long before she was born. Even...Read More

The redefinition of list-making: what does it mean to teachers?

22 de junho de 2014

by Ana Maria Menezes

Why do we make lists? Jillian Steinhauer in a 2012 blog post says “We are a society of listers.” In other words, we could all be called “glazomaniacs” according to Dictionary.com which defines “glazomania” as a passion for list-making. We seem to enjoy lists: to-do lists, grocery lists, best-sellers lists, new year resolution lists and...Read More

Revisiting ELT Mantras #5: Grade the task, not the text

14 de junho de 2014

by Damian Willians

10 years ago I was teaching in in a school in central London. At that time the internet as a teaching resource was just beginning to take off, and while I and many of my peers were starting to get to grips with how to get the most out of it, there was always the...Read More
