I want to start an English teacher book club in South East Asia. Preferably online but inperson events can work to. If you know any SEA teachers who want to join please tag them below! Teachers Talk English Teachers Talk Radio Team English

This is very interesting for someone who has worked in a challenging school. I wonder what teacher retention will look like there in 6-9 months time...

Put a finger down if you ever look at your old lessons and KNOW you struggled planned them and that you'd rather chew a jean jacket than ever teach them again...

Creating an exam wrapper has been a LIFE SAVER now that I'm drowning in marking! Shared by a fantastic teacher on here and I adapted it for my class and exams 🙂

I really wish being a HS English teacher meant having protected time to sit with literary magazines and read/appreciate new pieces of writing each week. (I mean, wouldn’t this be SO much more valuable than any other “PD” we spend time doing?)

Teachers seem to be taking this personally not looking at the bigger picture which is the SYSTEM. Yes we are part of the system but the system precedes us and will continue when we are gone, unfortunately. Don't act like you don't moan about the redundancy of GCSE content 🙄

I would love to know, as secondary or even primary teachers, how much time you actually spend reading? And I don't mean the texts you teach, I mean for pleasure? Teachers Talk Radio Litdrive UK The Literacy Engine

This is a MUST LISTEN for educators, parents, EVERYONE! Ai, deep fakes, misogyny. Laura Bates is a critical voice in this sphere. open.spotify.com/show/0EUpx2p1A…

There is nothing more irritating than being questioned if you can do a job despite having great outcomes and the people doing so have NEVER seen you teach. How does that work?
