I am a happy teacher , because I am a member of the English Without Borders Network. I proudly say that by supporting this platform I have improved my speaking ,listening,and writing skills,which whithout of having these skills we can’t be fluently in EL. Therefore every English teacher need to have 4 skills and need to pay attention about self-regulated-learning, Now I can say that the EWB Network website is very useful and nessessary for English teachers . I have been using from this website for 3 years . Of course there are majority helpful resourses for teaching EL for every levels. I want to express my deeply gratitude to the director of the EWB Network Mrs Nasibakhon Mirpochoeva and managers of its website for organizing amazing materials and webinars for us. Thanks so much .
