Are you an ELT publisher?
Here’s how I can help you.
Hi there, my name is Michelle Worgan and I’ve been writing ELT materials for the last ten years. I specialise in young learner / primary materials and I’ve worked on courses for Spain, Latin America and global markets.
I write Student Books, Activity Books and Teacher’s Books as well as projects, digital and supplementary components for a variety of primary courses. I work with Macmillan Education, OUP, Pearson, ELI, DLA and Hubbub Labs, among others.
Some of the projects I’ve worked on include:
- Blue Dot (OUP) – NEW Blue Dot | | Oxford University Press
- Learn It Share It (Macmillan) Learn it Share it 1
- The Story Garden (ELI) The Story Garden – British English | ELi Publishing
- My Disney Stars and Heroes (Pearson) Disney Stars and Heroes
- Ready to Run Teacher’s Packs (DLA) Authentic video for education | DLA
- Kids Can (Macmillan) Kids Can – Macmillan – Macmillan
- Rise and Shine (Pearson) Rise and Shine
- Move! (ELI) Move! | ELi Publishing
- Global Stage (Macmillan) Global Stage – Macmillan English – course
Talks & Workshops
I also frequently give talks and workshops at local, national and international conferences, both face-to-face and online. Some of the topics I’ve spoken about are:
- Inclusive approaches
- Inquiry-based learning & training
- Universal Design for Learning
- Designing digital adventures
- Mindfulness & movement
- Discussion tasks for primary
- Visible thinking routines
I first worked with Michelle when she was working on Global Stage and I was her development editor. We later wrote components for the same pre-primary course. Michelle was great to work with from the very beginning. She produced very complete and accomplished first drafts and she took on feedback and suggestions willingly. Michelle brings creativity and ideas to every project and I would recommend her for both materials development and training. Her very recent classroom experience means she knows what works with young learners and can create materials that pass on her years of teaching expertise. I think any ELT teacher would benefit from Michelle’s ideas and resources.
I’ve worked with Michelle for several years. She is extremely versatile and has helped us on a variety of projects including lesson resources, blogs, newsletters and editing. Michelle is an absolute pleasure to work with. She responds quickly to emails, always takes on new projects with an open mind and a positive attitude and consistently provides creative, fun and clearly written resources for our clients. I would recommend Michelle’s services to any publisher or ELT business that needs a friendly communicative freelancer that produces high quality educational materials.
