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

Using songs in the classroom

6 de dezembro de 2016

by Ricardo Barros

If you had been my student at around 2010 on of your complaints would have been that I never used songs in my lessons. Earlier in my career I used songs quite frequently, in that gap-fill let’s-kill-some-time kind of way. However, as I became more experienced, I realised that this kind of activity is not...Read More

5 de agosto de 2015

by Natália Guerreiro

No matter how much we love our profession, there will always be that mind-numbing task we have to carry out. To me, that’s marking a seemingly endless pile of multiple-choice/short answer tests, the kind even a computer could grade. However, there is always that outside-the-box answer that will cheer me up. The web has no...Read More
