Umbrella Newsletter # 49

Dear Colleagues,

Our short summer is drawing to its end and the signs of impending autumn are everywhere – we head into a busy fall with frantic shopping for school supplies, more splashy school-related TV reports, and unavoidable mental notes of things that should be included in lesson plans later in the year.

 And you see a lot of
promise and fun upcoming in the new academic year. Do you know what is ahead? We have tried to create an ELT horoscope for the Russian ELT community
J and learned that there will be fabulous breaks, when the glorious Sun joins sweet Venus in social Leo and there will be great morale boost as dynamic Mars tips its hat to fortunate Jupiter. On these days you will get ready to feel a surge of energy, confidence and enthusiasm. You might think that things are suddenly going your way ... but in reality, with your positive attitude, you're simply creating your own good luck. Don't miss this excellent opportunity to turn one of your dreams into reality! Below is a more practical guide to your horoscope for the next few months.

Enjoy!

Elena.

Umbrella Newsletter # 42

Dear Colleagues,

I believe you will agree that motivation is essential to success in ELT and… it is so difficult to motivate students during this never-ending winter. Moreover, it is more difficult to motivate yourself to stay tuned, to find joy in routine work and not to be buried under tons of papers work. I think one of the ways to combat this winter’s depressing dominance is to plant and cultivate seeds of joy. This Newsletter will provide you with lots of news and ideas that could bring you energy, joy and wonder.

David, Elena and Natasha
