Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas One of the repeating themes of this TEFL course has been the games a classroom may participate in, and the many variants of games appropriate for the learning of English. Examples are hangman, crossword puzzles, word jumbles, 20 questions, and many more to mention. The games can often serve very specific purposes, which were perhaps not the original intentions for the games, however within the classroom they can perfectly fit into their role. Tongue-twisters are an excellent choice when practising pronunciations on students in the fluency stage of the lesson, as it allows them to make mistakes without the fear of embarrassment from failure (as failure is almost certain for everybody, at least once), and forces them to apply the words quickly without much...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences In all, English has official or special status in at least 75 countries (with a combined population of two billion people).

For example, writing keywords on the board from a text may be a useful way to highlight important words or key information for learners.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas English has spread widely all over the world, first because of the influence of the British Empire and, second due to the pre-eminence of North American influence in the world.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas When we were little children, most of us loved reading or listening to our parents or friends to tell us some stories.

All the arguments given are based on my teaching experience with young learners. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Lin C.
