I'm a state school English teacher and I've been teaching English since 1993. I'm relatively a new blogger but I find it really rewarding. Blogging is for me a means to share new ideas for lesson plans and to make the most of the tools available in schools where I teach.

The smiling faces at the end of a successful lesson is my best reward and keeps me trying even more.

I am an elementary English language teacher in Barcelona. I teach English as a Second Language to very young learners and I use new technologies for different purposes in my classes.

I do project working as a way to motivate and engage my pupils into collaborative work. I and my pupils are very active using web 2.0 tools and producing outcomes with these tools. But, I don’t miss any opportunity to use “old teaching tools”, such as puppets, songs, stories or games.

Portable Teacher
Welcome to my teaching blog! Portable-Teacher reflects what I'm doing or thinking about doing in the classroom. I started the blog with a few teaching friends, who occasionally post to it. We envisioned it as a collaborative space where we could share and engage in conversation about our practice.

I use the blog to remember and reflect on my teaching as well as a place to share ideas or tools I've found helpful. I would like the blog to push teachers and others to question, imagine and or reflect on their own practice.

Marina Petrovic, Serbia, Foreign Language School, English as a Foreign Language

I have been teaching English and managing a private language school for 14 years now. This dual aspect of my work gave me invaluable insights into language school dynamics and enabled me to comprehend and empathize with students', teachers' and school owners' problems, needs and aspirations. I believe that technology has enriched learning experience to such a great extent that it cannot be denied, especially by teachers.

Evolving E-circles - currently offline
I have several blogs, but this one is my favourite because there I share my experience of different online tools, virtual classrooms, online teaching methodology, etc.

I started blogging about Psychology in ELT in 2006, but I had this impression that no one was reading, so I stopped and turned this blog into Learn Serbian in 2007 - it's still alive and kicking, becoming more and more popular. What I think I will be doing in the future is creating digitalized language learning content.

I’m what Gilly Salmon (2002) calls the ‘Nomadict e-Moderator’: “E-moderators are as mobile as their students. Many are portfolio e-moderators, working for several educational institutions and providers, all over the world, at any one time. They work for institutions that provide them with the best support for their mobile working lives.

They have not only a highly developed awareness of the ways in which traditions of learning and expectations vary in different cultures but also the ability to work across discipline and levels of education… They can relate well to students without needing to meet with them. They focus on promoting the concepts of ownership of the learning process, active learning, independence… self-motivation and a level of autonomy.”

But, to put it more simply, I’m a teacher. I’m also a student. The only way I think we can be good teachers is to always be students. To consciously to be part of the audience so that we can remember why we’re here in the first place. To observe the world, to watch others’ journeys and vicariously learn through them, to digest and process information, turn it into knowledge… and eventually manifest wisdom.

Virtually Scholastic
In 2004 I fell into the world of educational technology while working for a university in the UK. This blog is a collection of my observations and a documentation of my evolution since that journey began. I’ll share discoveries with you of tools that I find interesting and relevant to my work.

I’ll provide feedback on how technologies add value (or not!) from a personal level as well as from a professional standpoint. I’ll also include the occasional story meant to ease the hearts of those in similar shoes (you’re not the only one!!).

Perhaps I’ll also inject an anecdote or two to stimulate the minds of those who are interested, and… of course, to inspire myself through the art of reflection.

I have been teaching since 1974. I am currently at a small alternative program in White Rock, BC, where I work with students who do not thrive in mainstream high schools. I have been struggling with all aspects of how to more make education more accessible and more engaging for my students.

My subjects are math and science. My background is in learning strategies, differentiated learning, and working with at-risk students. My passion is for collaboration with like-minded colleagues who want to explore together this process of making learning more meaningful for students through the integration of Web 2.0 tools and resources.
