Some things and somethings: #blogmas Day 21 (the teacher edition)

Have I told you that I am an English teacher? I am. I teach English as a foreign language which basically means English to people who don’t know English. Just putting that out there in case you where wondering (which you probably weren’t). Why am I telling you this? Cause my title makes no sense!! But, hey, I liked it. I am sticking to it!

So, I couldn’t really think of anything to write for #Blogmas day 21. Man this blogmas is turning into a mountain I will climb. I can do it. I can.

Anyway, back to the #blogmas block, after thinking and thinking, I thought I’d be a teacher/blogger (which I kinda am :p) and today, I am going to focus on the four skills (what we teachers call the 4 skills that are in our lesson plans). Listening, reading, writing, and speaking. Welcome to my day guys or should I say my class?!?

Listening

So this tune played over and over today. Seriously, if you play it once, you will play it over and over again!!!! It reminds me of the good old pop songs. 80s? nice. Nice and nicer.

Reading

I read this article with my learners. It is sad. Disturbing and really makes you wonder about how much we are polluting the atmosphere and crazy ‘selling’ ideas. Full article can be found here.

Speaking

I had a speaking lesson and my learner said that s/he enjoyed the session cause we were speaking and it didn’t feel like I was a teacher. hmmmmmmm dunno how I feel about that one.

Writing

Well, I am writing this blog post. I have already written another one and I wanna write one more for my edu blog. So writing x3

So there you have it. All four skills in one post. Can you describe your day in the same way? Why would ya anyway? If you feel like it though, do not hesitate. Leave a comment below. You will put a big smile on my face!!Sorry, if I was a bit random today! It’s 11 p.m. in Greece!!
