Welcome to the latest edition of the TeachingEnglish newsletter!
This week we have more news of the ELTons Awards 2015 LIVE and ONLINE. See our video invitation to the livestream event.
We also have four NEW TE radio programmes for teachers with worksheets to download, and a very interesting seminar by Adrian Underhill for those of you interested in helping your learners to make new and difficult sounds.
For the classroom our featured activity is the popular Family tree. Get your students to draw their own family tree and share it with their friends - they won't stop talking!
Our blog topics for June - encouraging student creativity, exam classes, realia and pronunciation - should offer something for everyone.
And finally, why not check out our five self-study courses - you can start any time you like and study when you want!
We hope you find these useful.

Adrian Underhill looks at how to use proprioception as a guiding principle in language learning, how to enable learners to connect with the muscles that make new sounds, and how to use 'easy' sounds to find 'difficult' ones.

 | It's amazing how students can't stop telling their friends about themselves.
