Season 2 #4 Online language teaching during Covid-19
In this episode, I recap what's been going on in the language training world I work in since the beginning of the Covid-19 quarantine period here in France. I'll share stories about what teachers of different levels of technology competency have been going through, and how we can use blended / flipped teaching techniques to dramatically improve the quality of our online classes.

Season 2 #3 My worst language lessons EVER (and what I learned from them)
In this episode, I've once again been inspired by Tamara Parson's ELT.Training Facebook Group "5 day back to school challenge" (https://www.facebook.com/groups/2419981351381358) where she talked about none of her participants being comfortable sharing their worst ever lessons and what they learned from them. I have no shame, and so here we go, my top 3 worst ever lessons!

Season 2: #2 Lesson planning and timing
I've recently joined the fantastic professional development group run by Tamara Parsons (https://www.linkedin.com/in/tamara-parsons/) of ELT.Training (https://www.facebook.com/ELT.Training/), you can join and get involved here (https://www.facebook.com/groups/2419981351381358/).
One of the issues that language teachers seem to repeatedly bring up is lesson planning and timing, how to get it right and what approaches exist.
In this episode I'll talk about staying flexible, using TTT / PPP to hit your objectives, and some fundamental things you can do to improve your way of planning and executing your lessons.
