introducing myself

This is a bit of me and my story

…..on Social Networks – Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn ……

This is me…….

On social networks…..

I tweet….I post …..

I comment….

I chat….

I love how the internet

offers so much for

continual professional development

(CPD)CHECK OUT THESE HASHTAGS: My favourite CPD chats on TWITTER are on Tuesdays (#edchat) and Wednesdays (#ELTchat )

EFL teacher since 1991, teaching

mainly adults but over the last 10

years lots of young learners

too. Love it!

Teacher Trainer since 2000. I

currently also run the

CambridgeEsol CELTA courses at

International House in Milan,

Italy. Since 2006.

And this is me….

Integrating technology into my teaching and training and into

my students’ learning is my

direction.

Unfortunately it’s a tough ride

as technology for ELT isn’t that ubiquitous in Italy…..yet!

Things I enjoy:

Here’s where I went on my last ‘day trip’ – can you name the place?

Yes, it’s wonderful Venice.

Such a unique city and I’m very lucky to live just a couple

of hours away.

I enjoy…

…….cooking - to “let off steam”

I enjoy…

…Being creative with my little 7-year-old daughter

Don’t know why, but I’m fascintated by this “animal” – do you know it’s name?

And finally… I like animals. But…

It’s the Duckbilled Platypus

I saw one some years ago in the world-famous Sydney Acquarium

Listen to the Platypus song here

That was me

Would love to hear your story tooTWITTER @chriscattaneo
