This is a shared website & blog from Adrian Underhill and Jim Scrivener. We work in the field of English Language Teaching.
We are both interested in reflecting on the current state of our profession and in discussing ways of initiating and supporting change where it is needed. We are curious about how people learn things and how teachers can best help that learning to happen.
"We've created this blog to share experiences and discuss ideas about how teachers can help learners practise English more outside class and learn more effectively in class, through taking a coaching approach in the classroom."
Our mission is threefold:
* to provide great material for educators (fairly priced and readily accessible)
* to give a fair deal to authors (who sell and retain the copyright on their own work)
* to be a learning environment (where we share expertise and ideas)
