Monthly news from podcastsinenglish.com Dear Teacher We have a soft spot for October. There's something about autumn leaves, misty mornings and bonfires that we like. We have a level 1 podcast about The fall listen and find out what else we like about the cold but colourful season. This is one of our Podcasts of the month. For level 2 we talk about collecting Mushrooms and how we take care when picking our favourite free food. And for level 3 Jemma talks about how she can see clearly now in 20/20 vision. October has loads of special days! Far too many to mention here but check out the sidebar on the levels pages to see them. Meanwhile our latest podcast is about the possibility of working anywhere in the world if all you need is a laptop and the Internet to do your job. Intrigued? Listen to Digital nomads and see how it can be done. As always we hope our business podcasts are of interest to our regular listeners too! We have one of our pie videos this month - that's our 80th! This time you can follow us on The trip we took recently in the car. Where did we go? What did we see? Watch / listen and find out! This is for level 1. There are not only podcasts and worksheets but we also have loads of extra materials for teachers including top tips to help students listen to real conversations and helping them recognise the key natural features of spoken English. And there's more! All on the Pie plus page. And we have Take a Text. Take a Text is a collection of 30 activities that you can do with your course book readings. There are 23 pre-reading activities, and 7 post-reading activities. It's great for new and more experienced teachers as it's a practical, easy reference book packed with ideas. AND only 5 Euros.
