Despite a great deal of interest in corpus approaches to teaching, no substantial collection of corpus-based exercises has been created. Teachers are reluctant to use corpora in the classroom as it is a time-consuming task requiring computer skills and knowledge of the potential of corpus tools that might not be user-friendly (Bennett, 2010, pp. 206-207; Tribble, 2015, pp. 57-59; Leńko-Szymańska, 2017, p. 217).

Thus, it is especially important to provide teachers with suitable learning materials that they could easily use. Giving them ready-to-use materials could help them to actively apply corpora in teaching.

This paper aims to familiarise teachers with the method of data-driven learning, describe the design of the corpus workbook, and recommend examples of corpus-based exercises.
