Blog posts should contain original content. |
 |
 |
 |
Write in a friendly and informal style. Feel free to write in the first person and refer to your real teaching experience in the classroom. |
 |
 |
 |
Keep it short. Your blog post should not be more than 250 words. |
 |
 |
 |
Add tags. You should categorize any blog post that you have written by adding tags to it. Tags will allow you and other members to easily see what the post is about and find related posts. |
 |
 |
 |
Use titles to attract your audience. Your title should be catchy and should reflect what is delivered in the blog post. |
 |
 |
 |
Share accurate information. Make sure to reference any external sources. |
 |
 |
 |
Keep content brief. Make your post more readable by using bulleted lists or by breaking it down into paragraphs. |
 |
 |
 |
Check out other blogs and leave a comment. |

 |
 |
Don't over-use capitals, bold and italics. |
 |
 |
 |
Don't copy and paste from Word - this may lead to problems with formatting, especially with tables and diagrams. If you want to save your text before posting, try using Notepad. |
 |
 |
 |
Do not include images in your posts as this can cause problems. |

Please note that your posts will need to be moderated before they can be uploaded to the TeachingEnglish website; this may take up to 12 hours. We appreciate your patience! |
