            Discourse Markers 
            
            A student of mine had problems to remember all these discourse markers and use them correctly so I prepared this activity to help him. It was prepared for the advanced level but it can also be adapted for intermediate students. Hope it�s useful for you!

            Valentine�s Day around the world 
            
            This activity gives students an opportunity to learn more about Valentine�s Day in different parts of the world. They read and discuss about the different customs people have on this special day and later they can compare them to how they celebrate it in their own country. The flags and the words on them don�t look very good in the preview, but I�v...

            Personality Quiz 
            
            This is a very funny quiz I worked with my students. It�s great as a warm-up or at the end of class when students are tired. I created this version in English of a chain e-mail I got in Portuguese. The result was this worksheet and teens and even adults really liked it!
As for the level, it can be used with any, elementary students will only work ...

            I prepared this for a first class, it was very useful to get to know the students and see which level of English they have. It can be used for breaking the ice.

            I prepared this activity about two years ago and then reused it after Steve Jobs sadly passed away. It�s a wonderful message, really worth watching and working with students. Video here:
