Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas One of the most important intrinsic values in classroom management that need to be addressed with utmost seriousness is the motivation level of students in the class.

Fortunately, the answer can be sought out, regardless of the type of learner, through the...  [Read more]

  Globalization and the increasing demand for English speaking professionals all over the world, especially in emerging regions, has brought about a new, steadily growing sector: English as a Second Language (ESL). An ESL teacher is, therefore, an educator who works with English Language Learners (ELLs) whose native language is not English.

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences The role of a teacher plays a critical role in a classroom setting. They are seen as leaders and someone for the learners to provide support and guidance. A great example of the impact of a teacher was in a previous lesson where it shows a comparison of two videos.

The most valuable trait the teacher exhibited was by ensuring a healthy and positive learning environment. He started the lesson by smiling, greeting the students, and learning their names.
