  • Summary

  • I’m passionate about serving teachers. There’s no one size fits all lesson plan or solution to your class needs and issues. But, you’ve got a friend and support system in me. I can help reduce your overwhelm, give you some teachy inspo and improve your work-life balance. How? With solid takeaways you can try out immediately AND some much needed teacher love. Because your wellbeing is important too. You can find my contact details in the show notes if you'd like me to work with your institution and create a tailor-made CPD workshop for you.

    Working memory. What is it? Why do we need to know about it?

    Getting students to speak can build confidence but is it the only way for them to learn the language?

  • Episode 120: Your Learners Are Your Best Resource with Dylan Gates
    Mar 20 2024
    Joining me this week is the ever-so-nice Dylan Gates. He explains what Dogme, or the easier-to-pronounce Teaching Unplugged, is. We talk about the advantages, nay, joys of emergent language and how it can help your students to speak more naturally. Also, Dylan talks about mini-tasks. Pure Gold. We also talk about PPP and its limitations and some really practical examples and tips on how to implement a more unplugged methodology into your class, even if in just a small way. And how do you feel about NOT achieving your aims and outcomes at by the end of your lesson? We talk about that too. Only have a very limited time with your students? There's something for you too.
