The ELT Buzz News Report

All The "buzz" in English language teaching. December 05.

Dec 05, 2023

Dear ELTers,

Here is our weekly news report for ELT.

My reading tip this week is this article with some thoughts about teaching reading and how focusing on “the main idea” might not be the best idea.

Also, check out ELT Professionals on LinkedIn. They now have a weekly summary of the group feed with notable events and posts.

Best,
David - ELT Buzzer-in-Chief
