last year I took part in Christmas Card sharing and was very successful. This year I had forgotten to check the dates. Could I take part to it even if I’m late
Thanks

My name is Glenn, I operate a (very) small English school in Okinawa. I just stumbled upon your website. IT looks amazing, I think we share a lot of the same fundamental ideas regarding teaching. I look forward to reading through your library of resources. IF you are ever in Okinawa, look me up.

February 15, 2020 1:28 amI am in love with your blog and I’ve learned so much how great tips you give. Teaching is meaningful like you say we should not find a way to keep them entertained because sooner or later they’ll know all our hard work and dedication will be worth it for their own future. Thanks for all your tips.
Kind regards
Melchor Bernardo
February 15, 2020 5:38 amThanks a lot for appreciating my work! You’re always welcome to use my ideas and activities. If you have any suggestions kindly let me know 🙂

March 14, 2020 9:15 amHi. Only praise for the website. I like it for the good ideas as well as a place where my teaching gets a sort of journal. I have been doing some of the activities you describe for years. I am an EFL teacher, have been for almost 20 years. Keep up the good work – as the teachers would say. 🙂

January 4, 2021 10:00 pmHi,
Love your page. I was wondering about one of your games: “Guess the hidden picture” whereby you remove squares to see parts of the picture. How do I insert a picture in the template? Sorry if it’s obvious to you!! Thanks for all the resources!
English Teaching 101
January 18, 2021 3:06 pmThanks for loving my page! For the hidden picture template, simply place your desired picture on the template. Click on the image -> Right click -> Send to back twice and that’s it. Have fun!
