15 songs right here, right now!

 I know how difficult it is when your coordinator or director comes to you saying that you will have to change your whole planning and the way you plan to a new methodology or teaching philosophy… You just think right away that all you had planned and taught until that moment will become rubbish. 

When someone comes and proposes that directly, or tries to sell you a new course, in a way, your brain takes the same path. Unless you already know a lot about what the other one is trying to sell, you will most likely try to divert from it. You won’t buy it.

With that in mind, I want to propose one thing to you, that don’t know a lot about my work yet, to get to know it. Because, yes! I want you to change your lessons so you are less overwhelmed, but I would never consider your experience and previous teaching rubbish. I know how much you already know and how much effort you’ve put into becoming the teacher you are now.

So I thought that an ebook, with 15 songs accompanied by strategies and activities will just do the trick.

I guarantee that if you try some of these activities within the next few days, you will see results you have not seen before. Your students will be more engaged in your lessons, they will produce more language, they will be singing much more along with you and you will have spent less time planning your lessons.

So if you want to know more about the ebook either click the link in my bio or send me a comment and I will share the direct link with you!

Strategic Planning.

When planning, one thing we must think about is where we want to be at the end. Once we know our destination, we can plan how to get there. To plan the journey, we need to understand where we are starting from. You might think I’m talking about planning lessons and teaching our students, right? Actually, no. I’m thinking about you, teachers. If you're not happy with your current job, it's time to make a change. You need to plan for this change. No one should just jump into new adventures without planning. That would be careless. So, let's go back to the beginning and think again. If you find it hard to go to work, if you don’t want to get out of bed to face your boss or that difficult colleague, or if you're tired of using the same workbook again, you should look at what’s wrong. Why is this happening? The first step is to think about where you would like to be. What is the perfect scenario that would make you get out of bed happily and go to work? Write it down, say it...

Differentiation Done Wrong!

Hey there, I have asked teachers about their struggle when planning lessons and most of them responded that differentiation is what takes more of their planning time. So I decided to take a refresher course on differentiation, and it's already sparking some intriguing questions. I'd love to dive into them with you! The facilitator emphasizes that students aren't just averages; they're individuals with unique needs. Do you agree? How do you incorporate this idea into your planning and teaching? Next, let's discuss the concept of maintaining high expectations. The facilitator suggests that by setting high expectations for all students and allowing them to take different paths to reach them, we're providing quality opportunities for learning. Have you encountered this approach in your teaching experience? Lastly, the facilitator introduces Mastery Learning, emphasizing that students thrive when given opportunities to learn at their own pace and level of difficulty....

Motivate teachers to use songs in their classes

If you followed my posts about creating versions to enhance learning, you might have thought, “Ah, Débora, it's very easy for you to talk about singing, inventing and all that, but I don't have a background in music, I sing out of tune, I don't have rhythm and I have no creativity or talent for music.” Calm down! All is not lost. Let's talk about it... I'll start from the end… Talent. I'm one of those who doesn't believe in talent...sorry. As Isaac Asimov would say: “Whoever has talent will succeed in proportion. However, only if you persist in what you do.” That is... it's no use having talent if you don't use or practice. So let's put out what you already have and let's practice, practice, practice. Thinking about creativity, let's go the same way. It's no use being creative if you don't have food for your processes. Here comes the study part so that the practice is effective. You want to know what to do and how to do it so that...
