Since not all ESOL qualifications are equal, we must choose carefully from the wide selection available. A relatively new examination on the ESOL market is the NOCN examination, offering levels B1, B2,C1, C2, from Intermediate to Proficient, testing speaking, reading, writing and listening.

What's new in ELT besides technology?

Over the past eight years I have been training language teachers worldwide to become Neurolanguage Coaches®, bringing neuroscience or knowledge about the brain as well as coaching into the language learning process. I often get teachers who are very skeptical about this and in fact one asked me “well, what is the reason for talking about the brain, we never did it before?” and my answer was “surely, isn’t it time that we did?

«Βλέπω τους μαθητές μου να χάνουν το χαμόγελό τους και δεν ξέρω τι να κάνω. Πώς να τους στηρίξω όταν κι εγώ νιώθω όλο και πιο απομονωμένη, αγχωμένη, εξουθενωμένη καθώς ο καιρός περνά?»

Αυτά ήταν τα λόγια της Όλυ (το όνομα έχει αλλαχτεί), εκπαιδευτικού Αγγλικής γλώσσας, στην κουβέντα μας πριν την πρώτη συνεδρία της εκπαίδευσης NeuroLearningPower, που παρακολουθεί αυτό τον καιρό.

QUESTION: I have heard about poetry writing activities in the EFL classroom.  I would like to use some with my learners. Could you suggest activities for young learners as well as for adolescents/teenagers? And, if I use them, would I be taking time from more "important" language practice activities?

Οι απλοί συνεργάτες κάνουν ότι τους πεις, οι καλοί συνεργάτες κάνουν αυτό που χρειάζεσαι χωρίς να πεις τίποτε! Οι άνθρωποι που μπορούν να σας βοηθήσουν περισσότερο και πιο αποτελεσματικά είναι οι άνθρωποι που είναι πιο έξυπνοι από εσάς – στον τομέα τους. Οι σπουδαίοι επιχειρηματίες αφιερώνουν πολύ χρόνο στο να στελεχώσουν την κατάλληλη ομάδα για την επίτευξη των στόχων τους.

ANSWER: The First Day of Class is the most important day of the school year. We would like to suggest an activity which would help B1+ learners to tell you a bit about themselves and to express their expectations of you, of themselves, their fellow learners, as well as their dreams for the future.

We strongly recommend that you use it as a poetry writing activity, as it is much more motivating.

TITLE:  “I come from. . .”
