ELTnet stands for English Language Teaching Network.  It is a British Council project in Venezuela aimed at incorporating secondary school EFL teachers into networking.

What is ELTnet?

Why ELTnet?

Because there is a need for deepening and strengthening the relationships with secondary school English language teachers, especially those who work in the public sector.

Many teachers do not even know about the enormous potential and sources available for professional and academic development they have at the British Council. 

Our aims

• Creating a communication network of secondary school EFL teachers in Venezuela.

• Providing bridges for them to keep connected.

• Providing a space for discussions on new trends in ELT.

• Giving them access to the British Council services and trainings.
