Dec 01, 2025
Follow Teacher Nathaly

You know I love a good research rabbit hole, and I’m sure you cannot wait to hear what Teacher Nathaly has been cooking behind the scenes. Here we go...

My Two Non-negotiable Resources for Learning English
Last week, when I went live with Lisa from Your English Self, she asked me to share two resources that have been valuable to me as both an English learner and a teacher. My answer was simple: a notebook and a pen. That’s it. Why, though? Lisa and I briefly touched on how writing by hand helps us process information more deeply, but I couldn’t quite remember where I first heard about the scienc...
