Teacher Development

Developing professionalism – part 2

30 de março de 2017

In my last post, I wrote about professional attitudes when working in collaboration with other ELT professionals – either helping or asking for help in order to develop. Now we are going to focus on the willingness to change and develop as a professional. Leung (2009) states that engaging in reflection to assess our own...Read More

Write Right, Right? Write, It Is All About CPD

24 de março de 2017

by Adriano Zanetti

It might ‘cost you dear’! That is what we generally hear when people talk about investing time and money in learning a foreign language. By the same token, professional teachers are usually judged by how qualified they are in the teaching community and investing time and money on CPD seminars seems pretty much the way...Read More

On tenterhooks

3 de março de 2017

by Dominic Walters

I went for a meeting last week with a woman who was interested in having English lessons. She said she needed to improve her English as the company she worked for had just signed a lucrative contract with an American firm. In all respects, she was an uninhibited and confident person who held a high...Read More

Inquisitive Ears – Helping learners develop their collocational competence

1 de março de 2017

by Lenora Haranaka

How many of us have heard learners expressing the wish ‘I want to be fluent in English’? But then, what does it mean to be fluent? As the title suggests, I truly believe in walking through life with our ears wide open, and there is one belief that has permeated my teaching over the years:...Read More

Picturing Through Reading – A Thousand Words And A Million Pictures

24 de fevereiro de 2017

by Adriano Zanetti

It is often said that a picture is worth a thousand words. In other pictures, I mean, in other words, a picture might provide us with a thousand words which might eventually give free reign to your imagination. I am not saying that is all bad, however, for some this may be too little and,...Read More

What teachers want

20 de fevereiro de 2017

by Teresa Carvalho

We want to be called teachers. Although the word educator fits perfectly, I still prefer teacher. It is the title that is written before my name in my college diploma. When I graduated from college, it became my identity. It defines what I do and who I am. Teachers receive an education that is different...Read More

English made in Brazil

6 de fevereiro de 2017

by Ricardo Barros

Two things have happened recently that served as inspiration for this post. One of them is the (erroneous) belief that one can only learn a language if his/her teacher is a native speaker. Who would figure this is still a debate in 2017. The other is the #accentpride that aims at fighting the prejudice that only...Read More

How to provide students with feedback

4 de fevereiro de 2017

by Beatriz Solino de Francisco

I have recently prepared and given a session about feedback and it seems that there isn’t a formula to follow. However, as Ken Blanchard said: “Feedback is the breakfast of champions”. In my opinion, it is extremely difficult to have actual learning without having feedback. Therefore, what is the aim of feedback? After doing a...Read More
