Unit 3 had great syllabus/testing information, though I was lucky enough to have had much of that with the base 120-hour TEFL/TESOL course. I’m not terribly happy that this field (teaching English as a foreign/second language) has generated a ton of terminology and acronyms, as it seems so much to learn, to remember (TEFL, TESOL, TEYL, CEF, CYLE, KET, PET…). I’m...  [Read more]

At the time I did not understand what she meant in regards to learning and I thought she was insulting me personally. However, it turns out that all she meant was that I had direct control over how I chose to approach learning things that I found difficult. If I went in with the notion that it would be difficult then I would most likely find it hard. The same can be said for teachers and their approach to building confidence in their students.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas While slang and idioms may not be essential to clear communication, especially when their meanings are very different from their packaging, they do communicate something more subtle: ‘I’m trying to observe the nuances of your language to better connect with you’. Slang lets you come across as casual, intimidating, clever, or whimsical in ways that straightforward language can’t. FluentU English Educating Blog puts it this way: “Teaching Idioms Is Teaching Fluency”. Communicating your personality is easier when you are more fluent, or at least when you have more idioms under your belt. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Bailey N. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of...  [Read more]

Linda Dunsmore Alumni Experiences In a writing classroom, instruction in proper pronoun use is typically limited to a short lesson on pronoun agreement. The pronoun must agree with the antecedent in both gender and quantity. Apart from this, pronouns are not seen as worth much class time; they are assumed to be uncomplicated aspects of the writing process. Many teachers will overlook pronoun disagreement in student writing with the assumption that there are writing errors that are more urgent than instruction in the finer details of pronoun agreement (e.g. the “correct” pairing of the singular “everyone” with the singular “he/she” rather than the colloquial-singular “they”). Pronouns are assumed to be easy to ascribe to others and something rather inconsequential in...  [Read more]

Stories are also used to enhance children’s concentration skills and develop moral and emotional intelligence by teaching students to empathize with the characters in the story. Storytelling can be extended to include activities for children to retell, act out, and create their own stories. Therefore...  [Read more]
