Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas In this essay, I will debate whether or not teaching slang and idioms is important for ESL students and whether or not it has a place in the ESL classroom.

However I think that this is a mistake, as students often want to know how the language is actually used in real-life situations and how they can best prepare themselves for a trip to a particular place in the world, furthermore, these language tools can provide a great deal of motivation in the classroom. Throughout this essay, I will examine some of the pros and cons of...  [Read more]

Linda Dunsmore TEFL Information Some people may feel that doing a TEFL course is something for young people who want to travel and experience what the world has to offer.
