From Thought to Action: Harnessing Multimodal Approaches for Deeper Learning
In today’s digital age, multimodal texts—ranging from photos and images to metaphorical cards—have the potential to transform the way we teach English. This session explores how integrating visual elements in language teaching not only enhances learning but also fosters social-emotional development, improves retention, and creates more engaging learning environments. By harnessing the power of multimodality, teachers can support students in connecting emotionally with content, thereby promoting deeper understanding and long-term memory retention. Participants will learn practical strategies for incorporating visuals into their lessons and explore the role of supportive teacher talk in fostering an emotionally safe and motivating classroom. The session will demonstrate how these multimodal tools can be used to empower students, build confidence, and create a holistic learning experience.

He has lectured globally, consulted on curriculum and assessment, and developed programs for all ages.

Proving Progress: Defining Growth on your Students’ Learning Journey
As teachers, we know that there is no quick fix in learning English. It takes time, and it’s hard to stay motivated when you work so hard for so long, but you have no idea where that work has led you.

Wiseman Skills Exams are designed with the interests of kids and teens in mind. They are structured to maximize engagement and measure concrete learning results. They support what you do every day in the classroom as your students see how they have grown, understand what they can do now, and look forward to what’s next.

Beyond the Red Pen: How AI is Transforming Exam Assessment
Let’s face it: AI tools are ubiquitous, even in ELT. We share materials through online boards, create lessons from scratch through apps, conduct lessons via Zoom or Teams – you name it.
Still, when it comes to grading, there is a lot of debate on how accurately and reliably e-raters assess student performance. AI can’t fairly grade students work – or can it?
Welcome to my presentation to find out!
I will show you how AI programs can be used in assessment, highlight their advantages and disadvantages and the ways to adapt them to different courses, in both exam and general contexts.

Freelancer Dream Crushed
Not long ago, freelancing was a dream for a privileged few. Nowadays, it is our reality. Most of the colleagues around us are freelancers (teachers with private practice). They are not just tutors now, but they have to be also marketing speacialists, bloggers, administrators and whoever else, to control all the processes. Unfortunately, we have to admit that it's not as easy as it seemed. Together, we'll examine some specific psychological challenges freelancers face, their reasons, diagnose the current state of the conference participants, explore their own challenges and learn how to survive in this freelance world.

Unexpected CPD: how to be a non-burned out ELT professional
They say, you need to develop professionally. But you haven’t got the money for those pricey courses. When you go out of your way and buy them (on loan), you haven’t got the time to do them.
And frankly, you haven’t got the wherewithal. Who needs that kind of professional development?
In this talk, you’ll learn about alternative ways of CPD - steps you as a teacher can take to upgrade your professional portfolio, start making more and live a full life. After all, the latter is the ultimate goal, isn’t it?

- how to make every student feel valued,
- how to turn classes into joyful events even when you study difficult topics and don’t play games.

After the session, you’ll have 6 practical ideas, which you can bring straight to your classrooms to marry high standards with positive emotions.

Дисциплина, мотивация или всему своё время?
Кейс: путь ученика от двойки в школе до сдачи IELTS в университете, через призму дисциплины, поиска мотивации и смены / изменения жизненных ценностей. Практическая польза выступления: никто не любит сложных учеников, тех, кому трудно даётся язык, у кого непростой старт, не любях тех, кого "мама привела", но если выбрать роль проводника, наставника, а не поучателя, то в моменты жизненных экзистенциальных кризисов можно направлять ученика, и на выходе получить прекрасный результат.
