Teacher development

The dangers facing language teachers:

boredom, too many demands, doing the same thing again and again, getting tired, "If I'm 'safe' why take risks?", PRESSURES, BURN OUT, STRESS

Some ideas for moving forward:

* Read new ideas in magazines and try them out

* Write an article for a magazine (most articles in magazines for language teachers are by teachers like you)

* Start a local teachers' newsletter

* Try a bold parabola

* Go to a conference or a seminar

* Learn about a completely different approach

* Join (or start) a teacher development group

* Discuss what you are doing with other teachers

* Make an agreement with a colleague to observe each other's lessons

* Find a way to get involved in some in-service teacher training

* Become a director of studies or a headteacher!

* Start your own school!

* Give private lessons

* Specialize (eg computers, business, self-access centres, video, music, exams, etc)

* Write a book
