Navigating the net....I like this resource.
I think it is ideal for adults who need to improve their language to communicate with other native or non-native speakers of the target language. Probably, it can also be useful to find new friends on-line, if this is the case, feelings and emotions might become important to accomplish the aim: learning a language as a whole.

Flying over
This activity is good to practice writing, speaking, and listening skills. Then it is also good to:
teach verbs and talking about oneself,
talking about past events,
talking about the future,
describing things or actions,
describing places and people,
talking about similarities and differences,
stating preferences,
making suggestions and giving advice,
complaining,
tellin stories,
dealing with moods and feelings!
Good-bye for now!
Please, write your comments on other ideas to teach, they are all welcomed here!

Playing with words
We live in a web of words. Words are everywhere, here, there, even when we close our eyes at night we dream with them, in them, about them.
Why?
Because without them we cannot communicate fully ever our basic emotions, feelings, needs, let alone the finer distinctions in our dreams and thinkings.
So I've designed this poster with Wordle to encourage a group of students to feel the words first and then improvise a dialogue between two heroes of this famous trilogy
Hope you like it!

Morning after morning...this is what being a teacher is really all about?
Today I got up with a feeling of being tired. Last night after work we had a great synchronic experience with some of my colleagues who are getting experience as virtual teachers.
