Week 2- Thinking of possibilities
While visiting your blogs, I started to wonder about the different realities in which we can be working as teachers of EFL.
I, actually, wondered how you guys in Egypt are teaching; or, what levels students have after graduating from their secondary schools in Ecuador; or what kind of teaching appraoches you are using in India.
I don't know if this is the right place to ask all this; or whether I should be writing about something else here. But I guess this is a unique opportunity to learn about others' teaching practices and, in time, create a community of practice. That sounds great to me!
Actually, I've started a community page on Facebook, called Celebrate Learning , to share ideas of how EFL teachers are using technology in their classes.
You know, I am a bit of a dreamer, like John Lennon used to sing, but this possibility is starting to fancy me a lot.
Cheers,
Gonzalo :-)

Hi Gonzalo,
ReplyDeleteGreetings from an Indian Dreamer!
I believe dreaming is living free, without boundaries.
I like the name of you community Celebrate Learning. I am on fb and will join you soon.

May I ask my dreamer friend what he is thinking about his final project. I guess It must be something interesting as you.

I am just thinking of something to keep the course moving and not wait until the weekly meetings.
ReplyDeleteAnd Noodle Tools, quite interesting, actually I am a Google-man, but those search engines look awesome.

Hi Gonzalo
ReplyDeleteWonderful post. This blog is for you to reflect on what you are thinking about, what you are getting from the course. You may be a dreamer, but you're not the only one!!!
