Hello everyone



There are many good sides to being a teacher; the liberty, the artistic side of the job, the sparkle in the eyes of your students (that's more rare) when they finally understood what the lesson was all about, etc. But preparing lessons and looking for ideas is not necessarily one of the upsides of the job. I spend ages looking for ideas online and offline, and because I have been teaching for some time now, I have accumulated quite a lot of them (or so I think). I thought of sharing my lessons with those of you who are in need of fresh and crispy lesson tips (at least I hope that they are fresh and crispy).
I have been teaching a variety of different groups, and profiles. When I started working in France I mainly taught BTS groups, and that is why I decided to focus on BTS here but not only. I also teach applied arts students, and medical secretaries, for example.
Basically, I believe that a good idea for a lesson can work in various contexts, sometimes it may not necessarily help cover the whole class, but, for example, make it more lively and surprising for students, and this is already quite a lot.

I am not going to pretend that I am so original and creative myself, I am basically a big copy cat and it is through browsing the net that I get the inspiration from.

I was hoping that together with other teachers we could create some form of an online bank of lessons for everyone to use. So let's get down to business....
