Happy Holidays!

Season’s Greetings! It’s that time again to get ready for some holiday cheer with family and friends. 

December is a short teaching month, and we all have our go-to activities to teach our students about Christmas. For some students and teachers actually, it’s easy to get bogged down with the winter blues. Remind your students there are lots of things to see and do to have some winter fun and get into the festive spirit. Here are a few links to some festivals your students or even you may want to explore during the holidays.

Whether you were able get some valuable information from the workshops, network with other LINC/ESL instructors, or simply take in the atmosphere of being downtown, we hope you enjoyed the TESL conference! Please don’t hesitate to share what you learned, or any useful hand-outs you received with each other. 

Your PBLA Leads wish you all a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, and all the best in 2020!

See you next year!
