Preparing for school (part two)

How to start your semester with a bang

Teacher introduction. Introduce yourself to your new students. Tell them who you are, what you do, and what you expect. Things to include are where you are from, your qualifications, your likes and dislikes, hobbies, and maybe a small, personal anecdote.


Preparing for school (part one)

Welcome to April! - school is definitely finished

For all teachers, the school break can be used for self-improvement. Self-improvement is easy and can be done from the comfort of your own home.


Choice tests

The sheer joy of multiple choice
