Coping with Anxiety
In this session, we’ll talk about how our students’ emotions influence their learning behaviour and why procrastination goes hand in hand with perfectionism.

Ideal teacher: choosing yourself is OK
Modern ELT community fosters and actively promotes the image of a teacher who is supposed to be perfectly qualified, extensively experienced and flexible for any teaching context.

In this session, Alena Nikitina will present a simple tool with the help of which we will try to look inside ourselves to see what kind of teachers we really are and what is OK for US.

The session with Alena Nikitina
will be devoted to a quite underexplored notion of tone in exam writing.

The question is: To what extent can we expose our feelings in exam writing?
The topic of this meeting has been selected to help newly-qualified and experienced teachers become aware of how to plan and deliver training sessions for others. This skill is likely to be useful in a range of teaching contexts including language schools, university departments, secondary schools or a teaching community in general.
