English Teachers' Board 2013

Dear English teachers,

The annual Beginning-of-the-schoolyear meeting is on Monday, August 26. We'll begin at 10.00 a.m. at Võru Kreutzwald Gymnasium's Mirror Hall.

 

We are going to look back on the last year and make new plans for the coming schoolyear.

On the agenda

* Those who organised different activities during the previous shool year take the floor and speak about the plusses and minuses of the event and whether we should continue with them or make some  changes

* Maila will provide an overview of the entrance test and other ideas concerning teaching and learning

* What about teachers' seminars? Are there some themes you would like to hear about or are you  ready to teach us something? Or should we start sharing our experience gained together on certain themes?

 

See you all soon!
