The idea of a hook is often referred to in the context of songs. It is that special riff or chord sequence, which makes a song stick in your mind. A hook in the context of this presentation is a special element that can be introduced to English lessons. The workshop will introduce different kinds of hook, mostly taken from the world of entertainment, that teachers can use to make their lessons a bit more special and memorable. Participants will get access to a mini E-book with the tips.
