The Internet is a rich source of interesting methodology articles, teaching tips and other useful ELT resources and information. It is also a great tool to help you prepare your English lessons – you can find there ready-to-use lesson plans, classroom handouts, downloadable listening materials, and more! We also encourage you to use online English language games and activities in the classroom with your students – they’ll learn willingly and they will love your English lessons! Last but not least, the Internet can enable your school to find a partner school in Britain or elsewhere in the world.
