Even if you have never used one yourself you have surely come across them. While some might argue about their value in language, they are one of the few \u2018languages\u2019 that cross borders, and is universally understood.

Aside from all that, they also provide an excellent catalyst for language activities for English lessons. Taking in part in this webinar will open the door to some of those activities for you. From speaking and writing through to grammar and vocabulary activities, this session will guarantee turning a \u2018crying face\u2019 into \u2018tears of joy\u2019. By the end of it I\u2019ll have you all speaking emoji \u263a.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Webinar Speaker<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Shaun Wilden\u00a0<\/strong>had been involved in English language teaching for over twenty-five years.
