The ELT Buzz Digest - September 24th
All the "buzz" in English language teaching this week.
Dear Teachers,
This week’s educational “buzz” below.
Every week, I think I could just write about Palestine, Gaza. It’s that big a thing. I feel guilty writing this little newsletter, when this genocide, this murder and evil is in our midst. This week, highlighting the death of Ghada, one of our own, a teacher, snuffed out last week by evil Israel. Awareness lets in the light. Please visit the Institute for Middle East Understanding (IMEU) FB page and their tributes for our colleague.
Best,
David - ELT-Buzzer-In-Chief
