Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas What do you normally hear when you walk into a convenience store? Do you hear a man tell you, “Hello, how are you doing today?” or “Good morning?”. The answer is likely no.

Karah Musani Teaching Ideas One of the most daunting things about teaching online is setting up your online classroom. You have to set up the lighting, buy props, make sure the camera is at the right angle, and find a suitable headset. It can be expensive and overwhelming, but it doesn’t have to be.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas This summary is focused on the use of flashcards with activities that the English teachers can use in the teaching-learning process. These activities are created not only to present new vocabulary, and practice pronunciation, but also to get students to participate in class. The use of flashcards helps teachers to introduce a new word through an image and that image is about any vocabulary words. Moreover, the main focus is that flashcards engage the ability to think clearly which is considered efficient learning.

This technique will help increase not only their memory and vocabulary...  [Read more]
