I was lucky last Sunday to attend the English Language Day at the 13th Pedagogical Marathon held at Moscow State Pedagogical University (MSPU). I should say that the event pleasantly surprised me in many ways.
Firstly, I was impressed by the beautiful and spacious main building of the MSPU. It was the first time I had been inside this building and couldn’t fail to feel historical and educational significance of the place. The organization of the event was also of high level: it was very easy to find your way around the venue thanks to the large number of notices; there were two café areas, and the sponsors’ stands were arranged in a way that prevented overcrowding.

E-merging Forum-4 in Moscow was already 3 weeks ago. And though time flies really fast and new events are coming up our way overshadowing past events, it’s always nice to look back at some of the best moments and re-live them once again. Below are the reviews of the E-merging Forum kindly provided by some of the participants and delegates. I hope you will enjoy the reading and remembering your experience at the Forum. I also hope that those teachers and educators who couldn’t make it to the Forum-4, will get their appetite whetted and will do their best to come to the E-merging Forum-5 next year!

Integrating Language Skills — 15 April 2014
