I want to share a great opportunity given by British Council and TRT ( Turkish TV Channel) in Turkey. Here are all the details ;
“Word on the Street” is an exciting new English Language teaching programme co-produced by the BBC and the British Council. Word on the Street looks at real everyday English and also introduces viewers to different aspects of U.K. youth culture. It is broadcast on TRT Okul every Sunday at 22:25!

If you are a teacher of English, help your students participate in this fun competition!
As an English teacher, you may sometimes find it difficult to demonstrate to your students that English is not just grammar, grammar, grammar but a living skill that they can use in real life. The My Word on the Street competition is a fun and motivating way to help them practice their English.
If you’d like to help your students participate in the competition, we have prepared a sample lesson plan for you to use in the classroom. You can also visit LearnEnglish site to see the videos from the original Word on the Street TV series to give you more great lesson ideas.
