What’s wrong with delayed feedback?

10 de fevereiro de 2014

by Luis Otávio Barros

Delayed feedback enables you to correct students without interrupting them, which is often a very sensible thing to do, of course. There are times,...Read More

Social media and professional image: yes, you are being watched.

Abreast… or a Beast?

7 de fevereiro de 2014

by Beatriz Meneguetti

I really thought that after 31 years teaching and 24 managing a school, no beginning of a new academic term would frighten a person anymore… I was wrong! I have decided to re-read Professor Celso Antunes’ book, “Professores e Professauros” and this made me think about all that we do when we teach… I would...Read More

Learn faster with native teachers! Still?

2 de fevereiro de 2014

by elainehodgson

“Learn English 50% faster with native teachers.” That TV ad got me thinking if that was still really appealing to learners in Brazil. In other words, do people actually believe in that? A quick search on Google helped clarify things for me. There are several ads like that. Not only do they claim students will...Read More
