About Teachitworld

Teachit takes a unique approach to educational publishing. Founded by English teacher Siobhain Archer in 1999 as a spare-time addition to her teaching workload, the online library of learning resources rapidly gathered its own momentum as her colleagues discovered the value of sharing their teaching materials. A compelling example of the true utility of the internet, Teachit grew unstoppably in response to its users' needs and now represents a huge online community of teachers sharing resources to help focus their efforts in planning lessons.

Teachit specialises in English, Drama and Media Studies teaching resources at UK primary and secondary school level. With Teachitworld we're now extending the approach to colleagues from the world of EFL  teaching.

The basic concept of Teachitworld is this:

• an extensive online library of adaptable ELT lesson plans, worksheets, ideas, and activities, contributed by teachers active in the field
• an audio library and image bank
• weekly topical news items and related resources
• a suite of specially designed computer-based interactive units, written in Flash, that address the challenges of learning a language – in this case English
• a substantial proportion of the resources available free in pdf format.

What teachers and ELT experts have said about us

This is a lovely site. Clearly organised and the materials looked good and effective. They are bound to be a help to many teachers ... would score highly on practicality and effectiveness. ELTons judge

I am a teacher of, dare I say, many more years than I care to remember and I often think, 'How can I redirect my students this year?'. I go to the site and there we are. Michael Woodcock

I like your website, because it gives me new ideas for my classes. It's great the way it's structured, and the wide range of subjects and ways of approaching grammar for ESL students. Beatriz Dévora

Now I no longer have to trawl the 'Net looking for a suitable teaching idea for my second language students – the materials are accessible 24-7 and ready-to-go. Abena Baiden

Nice site, well organized and instructive. Ali Asghar Mazinanian

I find your page very interesting, with surprising ideas and resources to work on in class. Raquel Carpintero Barros

Teachitworld is an excellent source of materials for teachers, students and self-educators. I love it, especially ELT resources, topical lessons and whizzy things. Marie Devátá

I recently came across your site in a desperate attempt to search for reading materials for my 14-17 year olds. I was glad to be able to get some stuff to use for free. Thank you for the great and relevant topics teachers can use. Heinrich Rittmann

 

I love your site, and it's worth its weight in e-gold. Simon Walduck

 

I am glad I came across 'Teachit'. I have been teaching English since 2002. I have to constantly make changes to make the class interesting and encourage the students to speak English. I am sure I will learn a lot and will be able to guide my students better. Ujwala Deshpande

	The life of a Teachitworld resource
	1. A resource is contributed to the site Teachers submit materials they have created and used in the classroom via the online submissions form. Each resource is then printed out with a cover sheet. 2. The resource is edited by the Teachitworld team Each resource is allocated to an Editor, who will check it thoroughly to make sure that it is interesting, relevant, user-friendly and accurate. 3. It's amended and re-formatted The publishing team makes changes to the content and the layout of each resource based on the Editors' suggestions; these can be substantial amendments or minor tweaks. 4. The resource is published A PDF version is created and published somewhere sensible on the site, along with the MS Office version for members. Often we'll find and add suitable web links to accompany the materials too. 5. It's live on the site – get downloading!
