Hello everyone...

I �m doing an action-research in my trainee year and I need some tips about how to use films in the classroom to foster vocab acquisition. Do you Know any interesting site or book that talks about the use of films in the classroom?

Thanks in advance

there is some excellent reading in the Resource Books for Teachers collection which you can get access to in a library or in the British council library or even FNAC.

Dear igof,

Late this month I will take part in a training about using films in class. It is directed at Spanish language teachers. Nevertheless, if you are interested and if if the training can adapt to English, I can pass on to you the information or the resources I acquired.

Just say something

Hugs
