Here are the most useful TEFL blogs I've read this week.

How can you not get the blues after coming home from there! |
Holiday blues
It happens to all of us. How do you feel when you get back to your home country after a long trip or season TEFLing? Normally pretty miserable, huh? Check out this blog on Lonely Planet called Five ways to beat the post holiday blues. Only wish I was coming back from a holiday to be able to reap the rewards. Photo by Jeremy Vandel.
First time travellers
Are you about to set off on a TEFL adventure of a lifetime? If you are then I'm guessing travel will be involved somewhere along the way. Check out this blog on Y travel blog titled 43 tips for first time travellers.
Personal Development
Have a look at this short but nifty blog on ELT bakery which gives you some good reasons to attend TEFL conferences.
ELT Trends
There's a great video on Adam's blog Yearinthelifeofanenglishteacher about the The five most important trends in ELT. The video includes information on DOGME, ESAP, and China.
Views on course books
I must admit since studying for the DELTA I am branching away from the traditional course book style lessons, but what about you? Have a look at this article on Authentic Teaching for Willy's Views on course books.
