Creating Theme-Based
Classes
English Language Specialist Vivian Leskes will lead an online discussion on theme-based classes in the English language classroom.

In this webinar, participants will examine sample themes, brainstorm other possible themes, and learn some websites for material development of theme-based reading, writing, speaking, and listening.
