We don’t just teach grammar—we build critical consciousness.
Time to move beyond generic textbooks.
Our open-access materials use a 4C approach:
🧠 Criticality
🎨 Creativity
🗣️ Communicativeness
📍 Contextuality
Real topics, real thinking.

Photo of a brightly-coloured butterfly. It has orangy-red wings with black markings and some transparent sections. It's settled on a fluffy lilac flower. I took the photo myself in Madagascar many years ago.
I just landed here this morning and it's good to have linked up with so many familiar accounts already. Hello 👋🏼
Not quite sure how I'll be using this platform, but I expect I'll post about #ELT, #ELTmaterials, #dictionaries / #lexicography, some #corpusresearch and maybe the odd #StetWalk
Found this thread via the #ELTmaterials tag. And here we are 😍
@dorothyzemach.bsky.social exactly, you start one and then you use it consistently. Something obvious and preferably short so that others
can remember &
use such as #ELTmats #ELTmaterials
Shoutout to Express Publishing (who isn't here). They let me write my own catalog copy for my forthcoming books. After all, nobody knows the books better than I do. #ELTmaterials
Okay, admittedly I suck at hashtags. But perhaps I can learn. What are people using for ELT materials? I searched for #eltmaterials and got 0 hits. @peterjfullagar.co.uk ? @seburnt.bsky.social ? @sophiamav.bsky.social ? Am I missing something obvious?
