My Participation at the Online Training Cap Season 6


 Last Saturday 28th June I participated as a speaker at the Online Training Camp Season 6 organized by EOPG. Ms Shumaila Waqas, CEO of EOPG, invited me to be one of the invited speakers. This is the 6th year I participate in the events organised by this important academic organization.

I spoke online for many educationists who participated activily giving the event a great rythm. I thank them dearly for their collaboration, which made my presentation livelier.

Miley Cyrus - Flowers (Official Video) an excellent trigger for an ELT lesson


Teens love Miley Cyrus.
In this song she gives an empowering message for girls. We can use the song as trigger for an engaging lesson and we can also help students to develop some soft skills so necessary for their interaction in this difficult world.
Here I share the activities based on the song.
Hope you can find them useful.

Can we call this "ART"? / How to start discussions in class.

I came across this video and I considered it a good trigger for conversation.
Would you dare to stay at this hotel glass room? 
Who do you think would enjoy staying there?
Can we consider this "ART"? Why? / Why not?

Remember students can use their mother tongue whenever they want to express an idea for which they lack vocabulary in English. Write the expressions on the board so that everybody can see them and reinforce their use once the discussion finishes.
When students are engaged in sharing opinions, they are more likely to memorise the vocabulary they learn when trying to communicate.

Hope you enjoy this lesson.

Edu Talks at Azerbaijan

 Not only did I have the opportunity to make women's voice heard, but I could also listen to enlightening academicians working on the same topic from each individual perspective. It was a really enriching sharing experience.
