One new thing that you will apply in your own classroom setting?

I did a short interview with the conference delegates and asked one new thing that they would apply in their own classroom setting.

Aparajita Samadder, the UK

"Until the first plenary talk, I was not very aware of pragmatic competence. I will take that into consideration while planning my lessons."

Joyce den Heijer, The Hague University of Applied Science, the Netherlands

"I will try to use Suggestopedia method with adult learners and use class wiki."

Jenny Kerchoff, University of Kwazulu Natal, South Africa

"I learned from the pre-conference event that English for Specific Purposes does not have to be taught prior to General English, so I can teach English for Specific Purposes first."

F.Pinar Torun, Middle East Technical University, NCC

"I will use classroom buddies so that they can check each other's progress and compensate for each other's weaknesses."

Alicija Galozka, Poland

"I am not an IT person, but I will try to use games, blogging and twitter in my classes."

Adnan Yavuz, Leeds Akademi

"I will use the writing tasks of IELTS in my classroom. The sessions about IELTS inspired me to do so."

Many thanks to the interviewees for their answers.
