My 11th grade business class were discussing leadership and I, in a stroke of ginius, if I can be so bold, decided to put their associations in a neural network. I guess it's a very interesting way to show the reason for doing mind-maps :) #activities_ideas

The thing is, the first man, according to the description, was an abvious autocratic leader, whereas the second one was a facilitator. I suppose they kind of fit the bill. #activities_ideas

MY FIRST CONFERENCE AS A SPEAKER
Having calmed down from the stress of presenting, I guess it’s high time to share some insights from the Trendy English 11 Conference.
I was once again reminded about how awesome English teachers are. Even though I am not a blogger or a school owner like many of the speakers, the feedback was amazing. I suffer from a serious case of the imposter syndrome (like many of us), so just the fact that the audience listened was astonishing.
At first I was shaking in my boots, literally, but after jumping into a mountain river, the only thing you can do is to go with the flow, which I did.
The support from my colleagues was staggering. These amazing people supported me every step of the way! I love them so much, it’s unimaginable!
Immediately after the conference I was sure that I would be back as the jitters are a legal drug indeed.
However, now I am not so sure. Maybe it’s that pesky imposter syndrome speaking, but finding a niche is going to be really hard. And I would probably have to make a real blog or something, which is bothersome.
At the moment, I think it’s more trouble than it’s worth. But my opinion is fickle, so I might and probably will change my mind a hundred times.
I got a mug and some nice tea out of it! And invaluable experience of course.

Here is a worksheet about managing money, maybe someone can use it with their students :) The last page contains instructions, but in Russian as it was done for an "open class" people who don't speak English could visit. The dialogue was written by me, but it was dubbed by an AI. In the end, you could ask your students if they noticed anything strange in the recording. My class turned out ot be super fun! #work
