In this episode I look at how you can use images effectively in the classroom and give your students more of those "a-ha" moments.
Through a job posting in a small Russian village, via a polyglot war hero, past split brain experiments and behaviourist studies, into Atkinson's Keyword Method (a vocab-learning approach) and out into the magic formula for "a-ha" moments, we look at what makes a perfect image.
At the end of the episode there are suggestions for different images you can use in the classroom today to teach various vocab and grammar points.

In this episode, I take a dive into 10 common English proverbs.
Wait! What’s a proverb?
A proverb is basically an idiom you use to give advice or even share some wisdom.
Examples?
Well, today we’re looking at:
Two’s company, three’s a crowd.
Too many cooks spoil the broth.
When in Rome, do as the Romans.
When it rains, it pours.
If it ain't broke, don’t fix it.
Where there’s a will, there’s a way.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Don’t cry over spilt milk.
If you scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours.
Great minds think alike.
+ a bonus proverb at the end.
We also look at how we can shorten these proverbs and how we can replace them with the mega-useful phrase “Well, you know what they say …”
Enjoy! :)
