SUMMARY:Free Webinar: Language Students that Actually Speak: No Entertaining Required
DESCRIPTION:July 8\, 2026 – 12:00pm – 1:00pm Pacific / 3:00pm – 4:00pm Eastern (U.S. & Canada) \nMany teachers feel pressure to be entertainers. \nAs a street performer might try to grab people’s attention and see how long he or she can keep it. That’s a difficult act to sustain five days a week\, all school year… \nFortunately\, that’s not our job! Our goal is not to entertain students. Our goal is to engage them. An entertained class watches while an engaged class participates. \nWhen students buy into the creative process of storytelling and language acquisition\, they become active contributors rather than passive observers. The class no longer depends on the teacher putting on a show. Instead\, everyone shares ownership of the experience. \nCome learn practical strategies for creating classes that students want to be part of. No juggling\, singing\, or stand-up comedy required.
