Propose and join #ELTchat!
Please bear in mind that if you are proposing a topic you should try and join the chat if it is chosen (though time zones can make that difficult).
Please also note that the chat moderators do monitor the voting. Cases of block voting are followed up and, in such a case, the votes will be disqualified and results of poll will be announced on our blog.
Since we started #ELTchat in September 2010, we have discussed a wide number of topics, but with many new members joining our conversations every week, it is very natural that we will get requests for topics which we “have done”.
Check our summaries page to see if your idea has already been included in a past #ELTchat
Please, include topics which
- have not been covered already in previous #ELTchats
- are relevant to ELT teachers and teaching foreign languages
- are not targeted attacks on individuals or institutions
- are simply and clearly expressed.
The #ELTchat moderators reserve the right to edit or reword a topic or not to include in the poll if it does not follow the above guidelines.
Before you propose a topic, do please check the summaries page on this blog or go to the #ELTchat wiki and click on the Transcripts or Summaries Links to see what has been covered so far.
If you see your topic but would still like to discuss a different aspect or set of issues, do submit it and we will consider including it again!

I suggest we talk about teaching English in the corporate world. For example companies and firms where teachers train the employees.
Is tech in the classroom a distraction? Do teachers jump on the bandwagon and use it to paper over the cracks in their teaching?
How about the joys and challenges of in-company teaching? Group dynamics in in-company classes can be quite interesting, eg a manages whose linguistic competence is at the bottom of the class, whereas a low-level worker’s is at the top. How do you handle the tension this can cause?
