CercleS hosts two informal online gatherings<\/strong>, which are essentially small groups where members meet to discuss matters relevant to their work: one for managers and one for teachers.<\/p>\n

We are relaunching the Teachers’ meetups as CercleS Language Teachers Caf\u00e9<\/strong>, an informal online space specifically for language teachers to meet, exchange ideas and discuss matters relevant to their teaching.<\/p>\n

The Caf\u00e9 is intended to be a small, friendly and safe space<\/strong> where teachers can bring questions, problems, challenges or ideas from their own professional experience and share them with colleagues from across the CercleS community. No preparation is needed<\/strong> \u2013 just bring your experiences, questions and thoughts, and join the conversation.<\/p>\n

The first session will be an opportunity to get to know the format, discuss what is currently on our minds as language teachers, and decide together on themes for future Caf\u00e9s.<\/p>\n

Language Teacher Caf\u00e9<\/strong>
\nFacilitated by Tom Grainger<\/em>
\nWednesday, 14 October 14:00\u201315:00 CET – <\/span>General discussion about the new year, and decision on themes for future sessions
\n<\/span><\/span>Wednesday, 25 November 14:00\u201315:00 CET
\nWednesday, 6 January 14:00\u201315:00 CET<\/span><\/p>\n

The Language Teacher Caf\u00e9 is open to language teachers from CercleS member institutions<\/strong>. The Zoom link for the Caf\u00e9 is always the same and can now be found on the website in the members’ area, at the top of the page on your member page dashboard: https:\/\/cercles.org\/my-account\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Please do not share these URLs with non-members. We want our Zoom spaces to be safe places for those who attend.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
