Welcome to TeachingNewbies.com!

Dear Students,

This page was created for you in order to complement our classes, solve problems, and provide a space for you to give your opinions about different topics. We encourage you to use this web site as much as possible in order to improve your English, communicative skills, and free your mind. Don’t be afraid to be honest, as we’re training you not only to be proficient in English, but also to think critically. We don’t want you to repeat what we teach, but to USE it creatively. And remember that, even though we are your teachers, we always learn from you.

Dear Colleagues,

Our motivation is the belief that we can always improve and that the teaching of English can be so much better than it is today. We’d like to help other educators use new techniques and methodologies (such as technological gadgets for communicative purposes) in and out of their classrooms for the benefit of their students.

Not only will people learn a bit from us, but we would also like to receive input from other teachers about their own ways of teaching, which will make all of us better professionals. In order to do this, we will constantly upload innovative activities and materials that have worked for us, so that you can download them for free!!!! We’d be very happy to receive activities that have worked for you to share them with all the “fresh-activity-seeking” teachers around the world (of course you’ll be properly cited).
