teacher
talk forum
A problem shared is a problem halved, so the saying
goes. If you have a problem or question that you'd like some help with,
why not post it on Teacher Talk, the onestopenglish discussion
forum? There are many ways to benefit from
Teacher Talk. Here are some suggestions.
webquest
Don't miss the exciting WebQuest feature! A WebQuest
is an inquiry-oriented activity in which most or all of the information
used by learners is drawn from the Web. We provide a printable WebQuest and teacher's notes (with
answers) to use in the class. Current WebQuests feature Boston,
Kingston, New York, Oxford, Dublin, London,
Sydney and Los Angeles. Click
here for more information.
