Lesson Plans
The following have contributed lesson plans. If you would like to add something, contact us.
Clive Hawkins - Clive Hawkins attained his qualification in 1999 and promptly embarked on a round-the-world teaching mission. His first port of call was Sardinia in Italy where he just as promptly decided to stay. It was clearly one of his better decisions as he now has a beautiful Italian wife, a beautiful Anglo-Sardinian daughter and son, and a not too disagreeable English school.
"Has living in Sardinia changed you at all?" "Yes. I wave my hands a lot and have wine with lunch."
Young Learners
Svjetlana Faukovic-Mach has helped in the preparation of the lesson plans for young learners.
