What I’ve learned about learning from others

9 de setembro de 2016

I’ve been thinking a lot about how much we can develop as professionals by being involved in the teaching community. Not surprisingly, the most important lessons I’ve had on teaching came from people, not books, but it wasn’t an easy process and I’d like to share some of lessons I’ve learnt from learning with others....Read More

From RLE To VLE – The Missing Extension?

24 de julho de 2016

by Adriano Zanetti

It goes without saying that we live in a world which is bombarded by information. I am not saying that is all bad, however, for some this may be too much, too soon and too frightening. This fast-moving evolution of information technology has brought about a new sort of ‘society’ which seeks for a full...Read More

Is there enough room for critical thinking in the EFL classroom?

2 de abril de 2016

by elainehodgson

Just like in March, I’ll begin by reproducing a photo that was in newspapers and social media last month and that proved extremely controversial, raising heated discussions on the Internet. Well, I believe you have probably seen it and possibly read lots of arguments, both defending and criticising all sorts of aspects in the photo....Read More

For a Motivated New Year

9 de fevereiro de 2016

by Rubens Heredia

A lot is said in the literature about students’ motivation and how important a role it plays in a healthy and effective classroom environment. With the beginning of the academic year in Brazil, I’d like to take this opportunity to look at how we can keep our own motivation levels high throughout the year. After...Read More

Reflecting about motivation and students

23 de janeiro de 2016

by cecilialemos

In a recent PD afternoon I attended, before the closing of the event the main speaker had a Q&A session with the audience, answering questions about teaching English in general. One of the questions stuck to my mind: “How can we motivate our learners?” The question is not new to any teacher. It has been...Read More

TeStressing Times – Test the Stress or Stress the Test

26 de junho de 2015

by Adriano Zanetti

On announcing my groups’ final testing dates, I can vividly remember one student coining the chunk, if I may say so, ‘TeStressing Times are coming.’ Well, in terms of pronunciation one might easily say she has aced the test. Living and learning seems to be a fair motto, I say. We all know that the...Read More

by Rubens Heredia

Working in recruiting and teacher training, I came to notice that Knowledge and Skills (which we dealt with last month) may get your CV noticed, but what determines your success in your career in the end, are the two As in Donald Freeman’s KASA framework: Attitude and Awareness.

As a new year begins…

1 de fevereiro de 2015

by Michele Schwertner

Dear all, this post was supposed to be published on New Year’s Day and that would make perfect sense. Due to Internet connection issues, I was not able to do so and I also ended up losing part of it… I was about to delete it when I realized every day a new year begins...Read More

Do instructions have to be that dull?

9 de janeiro de 2015

by Rubens Heredia

Instructions are an important part of every teacher’s life. They can either make or break our lessons, getting students in the best mood imaginable or sending them into a downward spiral of discontentment (has anyone ever heard students react with sighs of “reading again?”). How can we guarantee that the second doesn’t happen? Imagine a...Read More
