WELCOME!
Hi and welcome to this wiki! The Teaching and Learning English wiki is for all learners or teachers of English from anywhere in the world. The simple aim is to provide a forum where you can share your ideas, views or tips on the English language.

Are you a learner of English?
If you are a learner of English, perhaps you have had a teacher you will never forget, or an experience which has really helped your learning. Perhaps you have some great tips for other learners about how to accelerate English language learning? You may have found a great book or online site - recommend this to others. Or, maybe, you actually do not like learning English - it could just be something you 'have to' do! Tell us about it, and others can reply to your message.

Are you a teacher of English?
Wherever you live, whatever your nationality, and however long you have been teaching English, why not share your thoughts about what works (or does not work!) in the English language classroom for you? Or, maybe you have a question for other teachers of English - again, use this wiki to post your question, or questions. Someone, somewhere is bound to reply!

Do I have to be a member?
No. You can edit any part of this wiki, or add to any part of this wiki, and stay totally anonymous. Or, you can simply add your name manually to your posts. If you do decide to join, you will then have a username. Joining is free. If you join, you will then receive updates from the Wetpaint.com team about what is happening on this wiki, or you can receive alerts whenever someone contributes to a page which you are watching.
