Lesson Share
All you do is design a lesson activity for 20 minutes or more of classroom time. The activity might introduce or practice a particular language function or grammar point, it might be a game or ice-breaker. The best lesson designs will be published on the onestopenglish website in our dedicated Lesson Share area.

Teacher's Log
The Teacher's Log features letters from teachers of English from around the world. Whether you're a native or non-native teacher of English, tell us what teaching English is like in the country and sector you work in. Each teacher whose letter we publish on onestopenglish.com will win a prize.

Warmers
Send in your favourite, original warmers and if we like them, we'll publish them on onestopenglish.com and send you a prize. Your warmer will be published alongside those written by our panel of published authors.
