Belated Happy Birthday Wishes, Dear Blog!

Seven whole years have passed since my world opened up in November 2008 and a new dimension was discovered.  Blogging has brought me much joy and expanded my knowledge of the world.  I have met many wonderful bloggers along the way, each and every one of them helping me to continue on this incredible journey.

I have been inspired to rescue this post from my drafts folder after reading Natasa's inspiring post:

 My Blog is Eight Years Old.

I have discovered ways of using technology effectively within my classes, made so many new friends and been invited to present at many econferences throughout this period.

I do hope I will carry on blogging for many more years to come!

Registration now open for EVO 2016 sessions!

A very happy new year to everyone!  I hope 2016 is going to be a great year for us all full of happy occasions and inspirational events:-)

I am delighted to be moderating once again for the third year in a row on EVO Ebook for Teachers' session, together with Shelly Terrell's fabulous team of co-moderators.

Why don't you join the eBook moderators on Friday for a pre-session EbookEVO chat on Twitter?  Details in the image below, courtesy of our lead moderator and organizer, Shelly Terrell.

Looking forward to seeing you in the EVO sessions.  I can assure you they will be fun, educational and memorable!!

I did a presentation called The EVOlution of Jan! for IATEFL YLT in January 2015. The slides via PresentMe demonstrate the EVO sessions I have attended since I first joined as an eager participant in 2009.  I hope you will be inspired to register for a session in 2016!
