ELTWeekly is Creating a BUZZ on the WEB
By Tarun Patel
Just before an hour when I googled for “ELTWeekly” I got 1,950 search results. I was amazed to see the number of resultes Google fetched for me.
Websites and blog such as http://www.imtt.com.ar, http://learning-english-guide.com and http://hallhouston.blogspot.com are talking about ELTWeekly.
ELTWeekly has collborated with for IMTT (http://www.imtt.com.ar/conference/front/index.asp?ID=3) for the 6th Language & Technology Conference, and thus has been listed on their site. Here is the snapshot:
Also Learning English has been praising ELTWeekly.
Hall Houston, an ELT expert and an ELTWeekly contributor writes on his blog (http://hallhouston.blogspot.com/2009/04/elt-weekly.html) about ELTWeekly:
Recently I’ve discovered a new periodical for ESL/EFL teachers. It’s called ELT Weekly, and it’s described as “India’s first weekly ELT e-newsletter”.
Some interesting content, including articles, ELT news and events and weekly features, such as book of the week, ELT blog of the week, and even ELT cartoon of the week.
This week’s edition features a new article I wrote, titled “A Creative Approach to Lesson Planning”.
I hope to get 19500 results instead of 1950 in my next search for ELTWeekly
