Our monthly lesson plan for April uses materials in the writing skills section on LearnEnglish Teens and focuses on helping students prepare for exams by planning and write a story.
Slog's Dad is our latest BritLit kit. It tells the story of a boy who one spring morning sees across the square the figure of his father, who died not long ago.
The kit aims to develop interest in and motivation for reading, based on creative exploration of the literary text.
Read our latest blog posts by TeachingEnglish associates David Petrie and Adam Simpson, who both give varied views on schools and learning in the future.
2014 IATEFL Harrogate took place from 2nd - 5th April. If you weren't able to attend the Conference in person, you can still watch featured talks, sessions and recorded interviews with conference presenters and delegates.
