Published yesterday! I feel very lucky to have worked with @thornburyscott again and @sandymillin for the first time. And of course thank you to everyone at @CambridgeEng, and @JoTimEFL and others!
Well, that explains the mini-budget disaster then... 🤣 theguardian.com/politics/2022/…
Someone has drawn a moustache on Postman Pat and now all I can see when I look at the picture is a meeting of the Greendale Nazi Party....

For too long, #ELT schools have gotten away with expecting us to do the job for the love. Trust us, there's no way your owner is thinking about the love when they're counting the profits. We deserve a wage to buy a house or start a family. Join the #union. #MakeTEFLaCareer
Two minutes until my first face-to-face lesson in 18 months! Going to be good to be back in the classroom.....

Fear of not having something to talk about is quite common with exam students - this is an activity I did with my class the other day to try and help them overcome this a little bit: teflgeek.net/2021/04/26/alp… #ELT #examclasses #FCE #CAE #speaking
