It is an informal and enjoyable gathering of those curious about teaching and learning. Anyone can share great ideas they've trialled in their classrooms, a teaching resource they love, a great website, a classroom activity - whatever you like! You can ask questions or simply turn up to soak up all the great ideas and enthusiasm. It is about being engaged and inspired by our immediate colleagues and gaining a lot of of networking to boot!
Trevor Wright is a Senior Lecturer and Teaching Fellow at the University of Worcester. He writes 'brilliant' books on English teaching and mentoring.
What can you do?
You can just come along and be a member of the audience if you like, you can give a five minute mini-presentation on one of your favourite teaching ideas/resources.
Please tell other teachers about the event. If you've been to a TeachMeet before, aim to bring along someone who hasn't.
Please use Twitter to publicise this event. We're going to use the tag #TMTewkes - include that whenever you write or post anything about TeachMeet Tewkesbury 2014.
Please sign up either to present, or simply be inspired, so that we know approximate numbers for refreshments. Don't be limited by the number of spaces in each section!
Add your name and what you may talk about below. It could be about stuff that has happened in the classroom.Don't worry if it is just about showcasing a product, a piece of software, free or otherwise, or a tool or a strategy to improve learner interest or engagement or for teachers' professional learning.
