Planning our teaching “backward” from desired performances on rich, authentic tasks helps teachers focus on what matters most. With this performance orientation, teachers are less likely to simply march through lists of content objectives or pages in a textbook, or to have their students complete worksheets on discrete skills.

  http://www.teflonline.net While the Present Tenses are each covered individually in other ITTT videos this particular video reviews the four Present Tenses together. Looking at the tenses together helps to clarify and compare the different usages and structures.

So examples of worksheets and...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas I cannot recall, at any time in my primary school years in Tunisia (1986-1993), a student is allowed to speak in class. It may be an exaggeration that students were not even allowed to ask permission to leave the classroom to follow the call of nature.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas The CEO of a multi-million-dollar company I worked for once told me, “Change or change will change you.” This motto has stuck with me since the day I heard him say it. It’s part of the reason why I decided that I want to be a teacher. I know it’s going to bring me out of my comfort zone and force me to do things that I otherwise would never do. A teacher can never stop learning; one has to constantly improve. Otherwise, what’s the point? Some of the most important ways to ensure that one improves as a teacher are to self-analyze and reflect. It’s fine to use these tactics at one’s own pace and discretion, but they are of utmost importance. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Confidence - how many times we’ve heard about it.

This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Iuliia S. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT. It’s been always difficult to explain what is it, as it’s something that comes from feelings of well-being, acceptance of yourself, belief in your abilities, skills, your own experience.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Scientists think that some jobs will disappear because of new technology. It is said that technology will change the world of work. For example, a robot will take part in people’s work. But what about teachers? Will they be taken away from their jobs?
