Hi everyone, I'm Wilma Luth from Canada.

Hi everyone, I'm Wilma Luth from Canada. I've been working in the ELT field for 27 years - the first 21 in Japan & the past 6 in Canada. I love teacher training and have worked in face-to-face, online and blended courses with teachers from many coutries, Currently I'm working as an online teacher trainer in a program for teachers in Mexico who are teaching English but haven't had formal training in ELT.

I've taken several itdi courses, including last month's incredibly useful Creating ELT Materials & last year's version of this self-publishing course. I learned a lot last year, but didn't finish my project as I was extremely busy with work. I'm looking forward to getting further along (finishing!) this year.

My project is a short book that helps teachers develop the reflective attitudes identified by John Dewey, like curiosity and openmindedness.

It's great to see so many familiar names here. Looking forward to learning together!

Hello everyone!

Hello everyone! Here are my cover samples. You can vote for the upper part and the lower part separately - I can combine the top of one sample with the bottom of another one. Also, notice the use of hashtags on the cover - what do you think? And one more thing - do you prefer capital letter(s) or lowercase in "stray stories" (which is the title of the whole series). First letter capital, all capitals, all lowercase? Thank you!

Hi everyone, just catching up with watching the recording of the first webinar session and I have a couple of questions/requests: – I can't find the link to the sample book Dorothy mentions (50 Ways to Practice Writing). Probably being oblivious, but I have looked up and down the posts here. Can anyone help? – I would be grateful for any extra resources to help get to grips with Styles in Word (I'm working using Word for Mac) Thanks in advance for any help you might be able to give!

Thank you for all your comments on my first cover samples. I've taken your suggestions into consideration and here is round #2 :) I've played with fonts, letter colors, hashtags/no hashtags (no hashtags on most covers), header (stray stories) with first letters capitals / all capitals / no capitals (I don't really like Stray Stories with two capital letters S because of the bad connotation. For the same reason, for example, I don't like to refer to students as SS...), various options with my and my daughter's names. What do you think now? P.S. Enjoy the live session, guys! I wish I could join you, but 6 a.m. (Greek time) is really too difficult for me...
