WTF Wednesday: New English Student Meme
What The Fluff Wednesday, or WTF Wednesday, is when I get my old lady graphical “skills” out to make fun images to do with learning and teaching English. If you have followed me for a while you will remember these excellent examples of humour from Sunday Funday and Wildcard Wednesday. I wanted to give them their own day again every week, so here it is.

Sunday Funday: Don’t message me before coffee
What? And I suppose you wake up like an angelic teaching elf with all the patience of a friendly nurse on tranquilizers, do you? Well, I don’t! I run on coffee. If I haven’t had coffee either run, stay silent, or use full words in your emails.
Sunday Funday: When you run out of homework ideas
What is your essay going to say? “Today I only ate half of the fridge. Today was a good day”.
Sunday Funday: “There is always a Deeper Meaning”
