English Department
The English Department is where I put different things, mainly lessons which did not exactly fit in the other parts of this site! Most of these lessons use Internet resources, and aim at developing the students' autonomy as well as their overall language skills.
I usually try to work on stuff that is a bit original, or at least a bit different from what you usually meet in traditional schoolbooks. So you'll find here Esperanto and Pioneer missions, Swahili and Renewables, well a little bit of everything... Hope you enjoy your visit!
