Our Brainyflix video contest just ended, and I wanted to thank you for helping us get the word out. We got 800 submissions from across the country!

That said, MIT was really happy with the results and will let us run another contest, so we're going for it! But this time, we're gonna have kids create Brainypics flashcards - which are images and sentences paired up with a one of our SAT/ACT words. The contest ends May 22nd, and there'll be iTunes and a cash prize like last time. To boot, we'll double the payout if the kids can hit a certain goal. More details at brainyflix.com/main/contest_rules.

Do you mind passing my message along to students and your colleagues again?

Thanks,
Jack

If not, perhaps you have some educator contacts you could direct me to. You can view contest details at BrainyFlix.com Please let me know. Thanks!

3 months in a High school - before which I worked for a Hagwon ( private/ academy)
the school is privately run and I now have the chance of seeing the ski slopes soon (with some holiday!)

I work with approx 12 classes a week (50mins)- but I find the english speaking
level quite low both Year 1 and 2

The other aspect is the co-teacher and I have 4 teachers, Korean teachers who are supportive though or but I would like if possible a more defined framweork within class to "assist our English Learners
