Tutor Resources: Global Teachers' Festival 2024

While we are proud of the materials we've created to help our tutors, we also recognize that we are not the only place to find useful resources. With that in mind, we'd like to share some information about an upcoming seminar that may interest some of our readers.

What is it?

Taking place between February 19 and March 1 will be the 2024 edition of the Global Teachers' Festival. It is a totally free series of web-based seminars hosted by international speakers that will focus on a variety of topics.

Some of the points and themes that will be covered include:

• Encouraging creative thinking
• The power of stories to introduce new topics
• Teaching grammar to young learners
• Making exam preparation less boring and more enjoyable

As a whole, the seminars should have a nice balance between topics aimed at everyone from younger learners to adults.

This festival is sponsored and run by Macmillan, a notable publisher of educational materials that are made available to teachers around the world.

As an online tutor of English, not all of the sessions may apply directly to you. However, even for topics that aren't fully connected to what we do at Engoo, you never know where you may find inspiration that can help you excel in some way.

Wrap-up

While Engoo is not associated with this festival in any way, we didn't want to miss the chance to pass along information that may be useful to you. And again, it's completely free, so why not take a look? 

We encourage those of you who are interested to visit the festival's official website for more information and to register.

Regardless of whether or not you choose to join, we do hope that you keep your eyes and mind open to ideas that can help you become a better tutor, wherever you may find them!
