The Book Depository

I’m sure you’ve all probably noticed the banners on my blog, which lead you to the Book Depository web site if you click on them. Now it’s time to tell you something more about that. I decided to put them out there for you to notice this amazing online bookstore because I’ve been their returning customer for a very long time and I absolutely love their service.

Here’s what they say about themselves:

About The Book Depository
The Book Depository is the UK's largest dedicated online bookseller, offering the largest range of titles in the world, available for dispatch within 48 hours. Founded in 2004 to make 'All Books To All' we focus on selling 'less of more' rather than 'more of less', differentiating ourselves from other retailers who increasingly focus on bestsellers. 

Free Worldwide Delivery
The Book Depository is an international bookseller shipping our books free of charge, worldwide, to over 100 countries. By working with various world postal authorities and other carriers, we are always looking to add more countries to this list.

Free Delivery on all Books at the Book Depository
You can find any kind of literature you want on their site and at much lower prices than you would find them in your local book store as well as many reviews, information about bestsellers, fast movers, books of the week etc.  The books I’ve ordered so far were always on time and flawless.  (It takes them about a week to arrive to Croatia.)


With all that said, I would totally recommend trying out purchasing any kind of books on the Book Depository. Here are just some links to the web site, which might be interesting for you if you read my blog (just click on the name).

Pronunciation is one of those things in language teaching that can very often be neglected. Or at least that’s the case here, in Croatia. Along with tongue twisters , you can make your students aware of how complex, important and interesting pronunciation is by showing them some really fun stuff on the internet.

Simulations and Role-Plays

Simulations and role-plays are very useful for speaking activities, where the emphasis is on fluency and not so much on accuracy. They can be fun and your students could really grow to like them if you adapt them to their age and level of knowledge. Firstly, let's refresh our knowledge of the difference between simulations and role-plays. When it comes to simulation students speak and react as themselves, but the group role, situation and task is imaginary. In role-plays, on the other hand, students are given a situation plus problem or task, but they are also allotted individual roles, so they are not acting as themselves, but as though they are someone else. The most important thing for both is that students imagine themselves in a situation outside the classroom and use language appropriate to this new context. You can give your students a variety of roles (profession, status, personality, attitude, mood), variety of physical settings, variety of communicative functi

Fortune Teller

If you want to spice up your classes when it comes to teaching and practicing tenses, try this idea for practicing future tenses or use it as an inspiration for something else.  I really enjoyed playing with the fortune teller origami as a kid, but even now, 15 years later, it's still really amusing. I tried out this method in one of my classes and it worked great, so I hope you'll have fun with it as much as I and my colleagues did. This activity will help your students practice the Future Simple tense. They should work in pairs and tell the future to one another. They will use the fortune teller origami that you can make for them, but the better option would be to let them make it. Here is how you make a fortune teller origami: After you have folded the paper in the right way, you should write certain things inside of the fortune teller origami. I would suggest writing some names of the cities, people, cars, brands, colors etc. In the middle part of the
