A slow chat intended for international educators in Africa and beyond but open to anyone who is interested of course. We chat weekly on Thursdays from August to June starting at 7am GMT and going until whenever.
Maybe #AfricaEd will convince you today! Unfortunately, time is never going to be on our side but it should not stop you from doing something that has been lingering in your mind "for months". The only way to find out is #justdoit#TeachersWhoWrite

A1: Sou frm Luanda. I write bc that’s how I think, 2 straighten incoherent thoughts & find solutions 2 problems. I write when overwhelming emotions seize my throat & make me choke on words. Then magic happens; they transformed on paper, purified & purposeful. #AfricaEd#WhyIWrite
We don’t just write in language classes and the formal classrooms. What is your tried, tested, and favourite way to get your students writing, writing, writing? @NCTE Tweet your responses to Q2 by using A2 w/hashtag #AfricaEd#TeachersWhoWrite#TeachWrite
A1: I write to document things. Some moments in our lives will never come back, and worth to be recorded. I like to teach my Ss to do the same, so they don't miss special moments in their lives #AfricaEd
