Spring 2025 LaTeS Testimonials

See what attendees found most beneficial about this workshop.

The interactive strategies were really useful as they address the different learning styles of our students.

 
I found that the presenter dealt with real life situations that are likely to happen in a learning environment.

 
Everything was so useful. I plan to share this with several of my colleagues.

I will incorporate Wordwall activities and the live weather webcams as well as the SPEAKING framework with ChatGPT.

I love that I understood more on how to evaluate my students and how to place them in the correct level.
 

I found it beneficial that she did not just explain what interpersonal communication is but showed us various activities that embody it and that we can implement in our classrooms. I look forward to using them in my class.
 

I enjoyed the resources that Cecile presented toward the end of her presentation, that could be presented to students in written or technological formats, to boost classroom interaction and query levels of student comprehension.

I loved having practical activities presented with different prep times. I also really appreciated having some time to actually work on incorporating an activity for the next school day.
