Dear Teacher,
I hope you have eased gently into the new school year, in time for World Teacher’s Day on October 5th.
The Tune Into English Roadshow
The Roadshow is back! Almost 20 months after last year’s tour ended in Vicenza the Tune Into English Roadshow will present this year’s new show at Educom in Bari on 4th October. I would be delighted to come to your school this year and look forward to meeting you and your students this academic year.
In the meantime the online Game Show is now available for smaller groups. You can see three full shows as part of the Tune Into English subscription plans.
See videos from all Roadshow tours, from 2005
