Alex Case's TEFLtastic

One of the really great blogs to follow is TEFLtastic by Alex Case, an experienced teacher-trainer and editor of TEFL.net with, I'd wager, a preference for Paul Simon and the number 15 ("15 ways...") who has worked all over the world (Turkey, Thailand, Greece, Spain, Italy, UK, Japan), now in Korea. A great mentor and motivator.
Recently he has begun publishing a lot of worksheets to print out, including these topics:
  • medical English
  • business/ ESP games
  • telephoning games
  • technical English/ numbers games
  • English for artists (!)
  • EFL exams
  • travel
  • writing games
  • vocab games
  • social English
  • videos/ films
  • songs
  • culture
He has listed them all very neatly for you and me here to download and print out. With all this great free materials production going on, can you please tell me what we still need coursebooks for?? And how do writers survive, pray tell?

PrintFriendly works with Blogger

Want to read and print out a post on Auntie Web on a white background, saving ink and not worrying about reformatting? True to their word, PrintFriendly has updated their service to work with Blogger. Yeah!! Just have a look at decline and fall's latest post in PrintFriendly. Do it yourself by going to http://www.printfriendly.com and pasting in the URL you want to print out.

Update June 10: PrintFrendly does NOT work with Blogger when a blog post has a comment.

PrintFriendly

You want a printer friendly version of an online article to take to class? Go to http://www.printfriendly.com and enter the URL of the website or article you want to print. It gives you just the content and inline images in a very readable font. The ads are removed automatically. You can choose to remove any images, or leave them in. When you're ready you can print it out or download it as a PDF.



Note: It doesn't work on articles that contain in-text widgets (little programs), and it doesn't work with Blogger blogs, so unfortunately it doesn't work on Ask Auntie Web. If you want to print out our tips, I'm afraid you'll still have to copy and paste into Word. Sorry!
