Mostly
Editable resources for English teachers of Aotearoa-New Zealand and beyond.
It's what we really need!

About & Contact Information
Hi! I'm Sue de Lautour and I live in Tauranga, New Zealand. I have over 20 years' experience teaching High School English and am also a trained ESL teacher, train beginning teachers, and offer workshops as needed to schools.
This site was originally designed to help teachers with Achievement and Unit Standard resources. Everything else here I've added as the urge has hit!
I know for sure that teachers need resources they can:
-
afford
-
edit (to put their own spin on them)
-
share online with their students
-
share with colleagues without having to worry about the copyright police arriving (please, only within YOUR departments though)
-
rely on to guide students to success.
Students need resources that:
-
allow them to work independently, at their own pace
-
are a little more 21st Century
-
'speak' to them clearly ... in teen lingo (yes, yes, an oxymoron)
-
look (at least reasonably) cool.
Feel free to contact me with feedback or if you need a hand with something.
All the best - ngā mihi,
Sue

Free - Google Drive Folders
I've dumped a few things in a Google folder straight from my school folders - bits and bobs you are welcome to wade through. They're not pretty, not organised, some are even incomplete, and they do include bits I've scrounged from elsewhere ... so good luck!
