first
italki teachers’ on-line meet-up!
Let's
- share our experiences
- discuss tools, methods, strategies
- suggest new ideas
- discuss whatever comes to mind.
But, on a larger scale, the thought behind organizing teachers' summit is -
why stay isolated?
We are italki teaches' community!
WHEN?
It will take place tomorrow (Saturday)
at 18:30 GMT+3

for adding the event to Google Calendar
(you’ll see the time according to your time zone!)
WHERE?
Let’s meet in Zoom.
If you don’t have it yet, probably, it’s the best time to do it! It’s a good alternative to Skype, comes in handy.
What to do? Go to the link of the meeting
It will ask you download Zoom ---> do it, run the file (install) ---> open the program from Start menu ---> Join the meeting (I recommend to try it out ahead of time, the “room” will be empty then, so you can familiarize yourself with the settings)
WHAT are we going to talk ABOUT?
planning to discuss 2-3 topics from following list -
- teachers' horror stories (thank you for the topic, Robert!),
- online business (and not just teaching) -teacherpreneurship, such issues as finding SS, studying the market, making small products, keeping a blog (Anna)
- what is your biggest challenge in teaching online (onitalki) (Marijana)
- meeting your student for the first time
- teaching beginners
more -->
- giving home works
- prepare vs improvise
- teaching 2 or more students at the same session
- on-line teaching and the healthy way of life
- Time-management
- Teaching vs coaching
- Do we need to learn a language in order to be a better teacher?
-
Teaching at all times (No matter what happens, we have to be at Skype in front of the student on time, prepared and smiling! Let’s share some stories J )
you can vote for the topic of the first meeting at our FB page!
Can’t wait to see you all soon!
