Finding it difficult to motivate and engage your learners or simply get the best out of them? There may be a number of reasons for this. Personalisation has been shown to be a factor which helps motivation and provides a reason to study. By allowing learners to use language to express their own ideas, feelings, preferences and opinions we can provide opportunities for real communication. Join this session to look at how Speak Your Mind, a new young adult book helps support this aspect of teaching, without additional planning and time for teachers. In addition, we will explore easy-to-use practical techniques to personalise and make language learning relevant to our learners.
