We've all read an essay like this... #EAP #ELT https://t.co/bkyhn0JOol

Imagine you're hairdressers...and using scissors is bad. If you're not allowed to speak, how are you going to teach? https://t.co/GEuIeyiUmf

[Amy Wilson Pleydell @AmyWilsonELT]

Food for thought. Maybe CLIL is the way forward after all! https://t.co/T3sgnJBTBs via @el_pais

Just tried @JeremyHarmer69's "Everybody Up" technique with my Young Learners. Worked a treat! Thanks, Jeremy #ELT #APABAL

Wishing @admiralwamy all the very best for her presentation at #iELT17 in Barcelona tomorrow. Break a leg - not the board!

[Amy Wilson Pleydell @AmyWilsonELT]

@JeremyHarmer69 on language presentation at #APABAL today: "it's not mine to give you; it's yours to take". Thought-provoking.

[Amy Wilson Pleydell @AmyWilsonELT]

@admiralwamy Almost cried. Brilliant!

@MsMMason Great timing - I'm teaching about adverbs today. Hope you don't mind me stealing your idea!

[Amy Wilson Pleydell @AmyWilsonELT]

Just stumbled across the @Talk4Writing method and thinking about ways to apply it in the #EFL classroom. Any ideas?

[Amy Wilson Pleydell @AmyWilsonELT]

@ELTSheona He's been doing his homework! Thought 'dinnae' was an east coast thing, though... https://t.co/TBtZsXGy5a #weegiepatter

Taught my YLs 'marvellous' yesterday. Doing my bit for British English! https://t.co/zbMAcQ5PBk #elt

Watching videos from @FluencyMC wondering if I could get away with rapping about multi-word verbs in class. Love this guy! #ELT #rhymeontime

[Amy Wilson Pleydell @AmyWilsonELT]

Thinking about online collaboration with learners. Excited about trying ClassDojo and Edmodo after this week's INSETT session #LearnWithTech

[Amy Wilson Pleydell @AmyWilsonELT]

Just tried using #ScreenCastOMatic to record #feedback for my #CambridgeAdvanced students. Anxiously waiting to hear their thoughts!

Even after 6 years, I still worry that my planning doesn't look 'thorough' enough. This article reassured me! Great for new teachers too :-) https://t.co/VI8qt4JkbL
