An engaging read. While the majority of the topics this article discusses has been drilled into pre-service teachers' heads over and over, there is definitely nothing wrong with reading a synthesised refresher every once in awhile. Sometimes it can be all too easy to believe you know how to implement certain things, when instead you have unknowingly fallen into a pit of learning and teaching monotony.

Language teaching presents us with a lot of tools to deliver our lessons but we will always be wondering whichever is the most appropriate for an specific class or student. This article presents some meta in the topic of strategy selection when it comes to language teaching.

The strategies presented here allow students to become much more independent learners. Teachers should know when to apply each planned strategy and how to help students develop an understanding of that strategy. When teachers take into account the ability, willingness and emotion of students, learning strategies are effective.

This is a video of the talk that I gave at IATEFL this year, looking at Brown and Levinson's model of Politeness Theory and how that can be used to help think about not so much WHAT we say in feedback, but HOW we say it. Via Nik Peachey

Considering that I will be an English teacher, I consider that it is relevant to know hot to provide an appropiate feedback not only for my students, but also to colleagues. When we do this kind of activities in the classroom, we do not feel comfortable because it is a hard task since we do not want to make our partners uncomfortables however, we need to do this kind of activities to give and receive feedback in order to develop our teaching skills.

This is an interesting take on providing syllabuses and showing the focus of the class. The teacher believes that if youre provided with a syllabus the focus is on teaching but if you have a class decide what would be said on a syllabus if there was one the focus would be on learning. Where in a class the focus should be.

27 ways to become a better 21st century teacher. Many interesting aspects, and I believe many teachers already follow many of these. However, some reminders are always useful and inspirational! I particularly like the suggestion to participate in conference calls around the world with your class. Or perhaps follow a MOOC, either with you students or to develop your own teaching further?
