  • What are your English goals and what do you except when you book a lesson with a native tutor?
  • Hi fellow ESL Teachers! What do you think if we collaborate and make a podcast?

    We can talk about English in general... we can discuss our experiences as an ESL teacher... anything under the sun! And we can share our podcasts with our students as well! I think it will be fun and students can also benefit from that. We can share it to them and suggest that they listen to our podcast when they are driving or we can use it in our lesson. What do you think, teachers? Comment below! :)
