Dear Teachers,
Here is just some of the “buzz” from the past week.
My tip this week is the Pie News’ article about the big ELT stories of 2021 and some thoughts about 2022. Lots to digest! Lastly, this coming Friday the 14th, I’ll be sharing thoughts about ELT with American TESOL and answering questions. Hope to see some of you there.
Best, David - Teacher Founder
