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!

What makes the best kind of homework for language learners?
I’d be very interested in discussing teaching students outside the classroom, on local excursions, using language affordances that exist near the langage school.
Teachers need to know how to teach listening effectively, use technology in the classroom, give feedback, adapt materials… we all know (and talk about) that. But how about studying English? Improving our English? Mastering English? Do we give our subject matter the same importance we give all these other areas? Should we? How (often) do English teachers study English? How should we go about it?
Today I will begin an intensive DELTA course. A number of people I have met through ELTChat are also embarking on the DELTA.
I would like to suggest a DELTA discussion, the title could be “what you wish you had know before beginning the DELTA”
Sleep is for the weak ;-p
