MM Days Training Tour: “The Learner at the Centre”

I’m honoured to be collaborating with MM Publications for this year’s MM Days. Under the theme “The Learner at the Centre”, the events bring the ELT community together to explore what really matters in classroom practice.

Over the coming weeks, I’ll be travelling to Ioannina, Patras, Larissa, Thessaloniki, Heraklion and Athens, meeting teachers, school owners, and ELT professionals from across Greece. These events offer a valuable opportunity to connect, exchange ideas, and reflect on shared classroom realities.

I’m looking forward to meeting you in person, sharing practical insights, and having thoughtful conversations about teaching, learning, and professional growth. See you soon!

“Teaching with Purpose: Responsive Practice for All Learners” ENBI Workshop

I’m very excited to be developing and delivering a 6-hour teacher-development workshop, organised by ENBI Agency, titled “Teaching with Purpose: Responsive Practice for All Learners”

The workshop is highly practical and organised around six core themes:

Understanding learners beyond labels and tests
Critically evaluating and adapting teaching materials
Classroom management through task and lesson design
Behaviour escalation and de-escalation
Inclusive teaching without taboo topics (including SEN, intersectionality, multicultural and marginalised learners)
Sustainable responsive practice, including thoughtful use of AI

Across all sessions, the focus is on adjusting both our teaching and our materials to meet learners’ needs, without lowering expectations.

The workshop will take place on 29th March. Registration is open via: https://enbi-agency.com/upcoming-events

Certificates of attendance will be provided to all participants.

From Rage Bait to Refusal: Behaviour Escalation Beyond Compliance

I was utterly disturbed by a recent news bulletin, disclosing the harsh reality facing today’s youth. Their uncontrollable temperaments appear to have reached an all-time high, as a reporter stood before a charred school reduced to rubble and debris; an act meticulously perpetrated by the devious mind of a mid-schooler. The school, located in Itea, a coastal Greek town renowned for its tourism and majestic Aegean views, was burned to a crisp; even more appalling was the fact that school equipment had been vandalized or stolen; rendering the act all the more atrocious.
