Hi, Ani! Lovely blog, congrats! I celebrate the topic you've chosen. I find adverts are a rich source of input for my lessons. There's so much that EFL learners can get out of them. I'll be keeping track of your blog to learn about both English and advertising.
Hi Ani, I'll be following your blog too since I have used ads in some of my classes for years. I love how creatively language is used in advertising. I guess your choice of topic has to do with your Business English students. Am I right?
Hi Analia, Hi Alicia, it's reassuring to have both of you here with me Alicia, yes I teach English through advertising to Business students but every now and then :-) I have to teach an Intro to Advertising for students of other languages than Romanian, i.e last year I taught a-ing to students in Riga, Latvia. I hope this blog will represent an opportunity for me to keep in touch with them and continue cooperation with them. That's why, with your help, I created it, actually.
It started as a result of my Becoming a Webhead 2009 English Village Online course application. It illustrates the link between advertising and English but is also a showcase of different Web 2.0 applications I have employed and materials I have used with my students.
Recently, discovering the potential blogs have as 'voicing' and 'linking' with the world, I have included presentations I have made to different international events as well as reports of sessions, conventions and events I have attended.
