I love languages. I love making materials. I love meeting new people and sharing ideas.
This website is born of those three loves. It's like those three things came together on a beautiful summer's night and made a baby that is this website. Sorry, is that a little weird? (Dave: just a tad, Phil.) Okay, well then without further ado, go and download some FREE plans, and if you're feeling so inclined tell us what you think about the website! Enjoy!

Hello all, thanks for stopping by. I’ve been teaching ELT for about five years now. I originally only intended to teach for one year, but once it finished I didn't look back. I get madly enthusiastic about teaching; methodologies, ideas and (of course) making quality lesson plans and materials.
The idea behind this site is to make it the kind of website that I’d have loved to have had when I first started teaching - a huge resource of quality plans and worksheets that cover every topic imaginable!

Hi everyone! My name's Stuart and I'm the third member of the ESLplans team.
I grew up in Brighton, UK, which is a real hot-spot for ELT. I can still clearly remember thousands of people from all parts of the world coming to Brighton every summer to study English. I was absolutely fascinated by the different languages and cultures and, looking back, it now seems inevitable that I would get involved with language learning and teaching!
I love creating interesting and unusual materials for the classroom, which makes learning fun and different every time!
Tip for teachers: to help you find what you're looking for type your search into the keywords box, e.g. present perfect, weather, discussion. Each lesson plan is tagged with keywords related to the plan to help you locate relevant materials quicker. So, think about what keywords you would use if you were making the plan you are looking for and use those.
Lesson Plan of the Week
Every week, we will choose our favourite lesson plan which has been submitted by one of the community. The plan will be showcased here, so you can all have a look and download it if it suits one of your classes.
