Wow, there’s been a lot happening in the Hub this week!
In the Progress Hangout on Tuesday, we ended up chatting about phonology and accents which led on to the Wednesday Question. There were so many great resources shared in response and when we have the website fully up and running, we’ll be setting up a Virtual Library so members can easily access links which are shared.
On Thursday, we had our two Coffee Breaks. One of our main missions of the Hub is to provide a space where ELT professionals can find support and it felt like that was much needed this week, with people sharing concerns about job security and howbest we can market ourselves and find work online. There was also discussion around the Wednesday Question from last week, about providing the rationale for activities to our learners and an interesting chat about how the communicative approach works in an online environment.
And there’s no signs of the Hub slowing next week, as we’re excited to launch a new feature – a Monthly Management Meet Up. This will be a space open to all Hub members, but directed at providing support to those working in language school management. And we’ll also be discussing an important topic in our webinar with Rachael Roberts: do you manage your time or does it manage you?
