About me


A British-born ELT teacher trainer and materials writer in Brazil. Dipping my toes in the world of ELT and educational social projects and trying to join the two in a meaningful and sustainable way.


Why did I call this blog rainy day? Well, firstly because rainy days are my favourite time to write and also because the aim to this page is for it to be a go-to for teachers on a methaphorical rainy day, when you need a quick lesson plan, fresh idea or filler activity. 

As well as writing materials for personal use (www.simplifiedingles.com ), I have also worked with:


- British Council 

- Learning Factory 
- British Council Brazil 
- Richmond/Editora Moderna (proofreader)
