19 Successful Online English Teachers Share Their Tips and Resources for Planning Online Lessons

Thanks to everyone who contributed! I receive A LOT of emails from online teachers (and online teachers to be) about planning; namely, what they should include in their lessons and what resources they should use. As there are many areas of English and different teaching methods, there is no one-size-fits-all solution. What I do and what I use might not work for you and your learners. However, there are some common practices and amazing resources that you can use in your online lessons. And as a way of celebrating the incredible teachers who create their own content so that we can use it with our students, I have put together this super post. I asked 19 online teachers for a tip or an app when it comes to lesson planning, and for them to share their resource. As well as being a handy guide for you, this might also inspire you too to create content for your learners (if you’re not doing this already). (At the bottom of the post there is a chance for you to add your own resources.) Gabby Wallace

The book has advice about online tools to use, what part(s) of your course you could offer online, and above all, a great set of activities you can use to teach online. By teaching online, we mean that you and your students are doing the activity 100% online and at a distance from each other (not in a computer room together, or using a connected IWB in class!).
