What teachers say
Saves prep time
Seriously, I absolutely LOVE these lessons! They are all on such relevant topics & have great content for most levels. Keep them coming so I can spend my planning time out fishing 😎

Thought-provoking topics
Your site is THE MOST USEFUL lesson plan bank on the web. Fresh, thought-provoking and hot topics, relevant language, detached from all TEFL book clichés that students are so bored of... It's pure gold. Pure diamond. 😄
- Teréz
Engaging content
So far all of the lessons that I’ve used have engaged my learner and kept me excited about sitting in two and two and a half-hour long lessons! Loveya so much!

Best lessons out there
I discovered this website quite by accident and I am *so* happy I did! I have never seen such well-prepared materials, worksheets and presentations and believe me, I have seen a lot in my teacher life😉
- Natalia
Real-life videos
I particularly like the inclusion of a lot of videos which break up the monotony of paper handouts for students and opens up learning to those who have a more visual bias.
- Dave
Flexible and adaptable
It makes my life so much easier to have ESLbrains as a resource instead of scrapping together my own lesson plans every week. AND the fact that you let me download the teacher, student, and PPT slides is a differentiator from other products
