All this will help to maintain and ensure self-confident within the students. In addition, there are certain things to take into consideration to better...  [Read more]

Federico Riva TEFL Information Teaching Ideas Here we're going to consider the use of visual aids in the classroom. Visual aids can include examples such as, real objects (which we call realia), the use of pictures and photographs and also the use of models. So let's consider some of the ideas surrounding the use of visual aids. First of all the use of a visual aid can reduce teacher talk time (TTT) which is always desirable. It is much simpler to just show a real object than to try to describe it, so that we could just ask the students, “what is this”? and they would say, “that is a pen” rather than trying to actually describe the pen. Again if we were eliciting names of fruit and vegetables, rather than to try and describe them, why not use the real thing (or a model) and this...  [Read more]

Federico Riva TEFL Information Teaching Ideas One of the major ideas when writing on the board is that we need to be aware of is that whenever we're using the board to write down information, we should not be talking. Also whenever we are talking we should not be writing on the board. When writing on the board we want our students to concentrate fully on what we are writing down. Speaking at the same time, especially when they can’t see your mouth (as you will write with your back to them) causes unnecessary interference of the message. This will inevitably lead to what's known as ‘dead time’ when nothing is being said. As we are putting information on the board this dead time is not a problem. We can also minimize it by using a number of techniques as indicated below. 1) We could...  [Read more]
