Breakout English is all about making materials for exam preparation classes, but the Breakout English Blog is for when things don’t quite fit under the umbrella of materials. You’ll find information here about exams, but also about English language teaching in general.
There’s more to life than teaching exam classes, so the Breakout English blog brings you articles about making classes fun, error correction or even tools for teaching online. Take a look through the articles, leave a comment and enjoy!
