Welcome to the latest edition of the TeachingEnglish newsletter! This week, we have two lesson plans on the theme of summer for low and higher levels, and a simple game to review question forms for younger students. On Thursday this week we have a webinar with Nik Peachey on the theme of creativity in the language classroom.
We also have a call for proposals which focus on market insights and a recording of Thom Kiddle's talk about using technology in classroom-based assessment.
And finally, our featured article this week is all about counselling your learners.
We hope you find these useful.
