My Favourite Monolingual Learner's Dictionaries "What do you call this in English?", "What do you call that in English?", "What does this word mean"? If you are a non-native English teacher who teaches in a non-English speaking country you will be familiar with the picture below. Now you are smiling, aren't you? In this post I'd like to share with you my 5 favourite online dictionaries and I'll tell you why I like them. What's a monolingual learner's dictionary? It's a dictionary designed to meet the reference needs of people learning a foreign language. Why I like it: The definitions are written in simple English accompanied by clear examples. Here you are an example. Why I like it: I like it for its boxes. Here you are an example of the word remember. Why I like it: Students can easily use it at home. As you know, a word has usually different meanings according to the context it is used in. Moreover, I love the star system. We usually think monolingual dictionaries are for students whose level is intermediate or more.

If I Were A...Mayor: A Lesson Plan When I plan my lessons for my groups of teens I always take into account: 1) Teenagers are creative and highly motivated. 2) The use of technology combined with real life is crucial in the classroom. 3) Teaching a language aims at communicating properly. 4) All the four linguistic skills must be introduced. Considering these four points above I've created a series of lessons I call I'd like to share with you the lesson plan If I were a mayor. Politics is not my cup of tea.
