In this blog post, we're going to explore how you can enhance your teaching and interaction in the classroom using polling apps! “What is a polling app exactly?” Basically, it is an app that lets you, as a teacher, assess your students or ask their opinions on a particular topic.

After talking about some applications and websites the students can use, in this particular blog, we are going to discuss another program that we can apply to language teaching and learning. It is Zoom! As you have probably known and experienced, we used this communication platform during the pandemic because everything was done online, including going to school. Well, I have actually touched the surface of this topic in the previous blog, so let's directly discuss our main focus! Recently, I recorded a teaching video with Zoom about passive voice. There were no significant problems except internet connection. It got a bit laggy at some points, but fortunately, it was still manageable. "Is it effective and easy to use? Should I do it for my students?" The answer is yes! I really recommend you to try it because it is actually a very simple program. There are a lot of tutorial videos that you can find on ...
