Here you can find links to all the transcripts and summaries available Click here to find it or look for it on the pages menu on the right hand side. 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! Read those great posts which we have collected and make sure you visit the pages of the bloggers who contributed them too!!!!
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.

Kayla Wilson – @Shea_Baby92 on Twitter proposes:
Recommendations for first year teachers in regards to ELL students
Do grades on degrees & teaching certificates count? Will it really make a difference having a Cambridge Celta with A or a Cambridge Delta with Distinction? After all, what’s the purpose of the existence of grades?
How can I make my colleagues enthusiastic for co-operating teaching?
What can we do to get out of our ruts? We all get stuck in routines or just get to busy to try anything new. What do you do when this happens?
How to help students learn from test correcting. I give them back with errors signalled, and they have to correct them themselves, but often they just take the test of the student with the best marks and copy it. I’d really like some ideas to make them learn from their mistakes.
Should qualification bodies introduce certificate/diploma renewal policies? For example, how can one make sure that a CELTA or a Delta holder will remain a ‘hot’ job applicant after the completion of the course requirements?
Flipped learning in English language classes – What is the best use of your face-to-face time in class?
What’s best: separating a class by age or by level?
I really liked Sue Annan´s idea: group students by age or by level?
I had thought of something different: what do you do with FULLY unmotivated Secondary School students -17 almost 18 years old- who would not move a finger even for a good grade which would let them graduate.
Hi Sue and Fabiana,
We will have to keep these last two topics for next week’s #ELTchat
Thank you for submitting
Marisa
