About the webinar
No coursebook, no syllabus, no pacing schedule. Going back to basics with a class of beginners was fascinating. Using lesson summaries to record our work and collecting them online helped us track our progress and give a sense of achievement. One of the most interesting by-products was the space it gave to stand back and observe the students' language as it emerged and grew. In this session I want to reflect on this and other lessons and ask whether our experience can extend to other classes and levels.
