Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Valeriia S. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT. I would like to discuss a problem for learners of the English language in a country I came from, which is Russia.

So, first of all, why is it important for Russians to speak English? The answer is simple: depending on their needs, whether it is traveling or employment, it is just a vital necessity in...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Young learners, especially of kindergarten age, are the most challenging group that a teacher can ever teach during his/her career. They are curious, open-minded, enthusiastic to absorb, explore the world, yet forget as easily as taking in so it takes them much time to master a word/phrase actively. They have a vivid imagination but short attention span so they so easily get sidetracked or busy thinking that they forget to communicate and interact with others. That’s a challenge to help them develop their English speaking abilities at such a young age: How to help them gain as much useful language in a shorter time so that they can use it later in their daily life? How to encourage them (in a natural way) to...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences There is a vast array of differences between teaching one-to-one and teaching a group. Each has its advantages and disadvantages. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Roshini R. D.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas One of the key elements to being an effective teacher is variety. One cannot teach by using the same lesson structure, the same activities, the same worksheets, the same plan every single time. No matter how effective it may be, students will still tire from the repetition, and their engagement will wane. And that is exactly why teachers have a toolbox from which to draw a wide variety of skills, activities, plans, and ideas to keep the classroom fresh and engaging. Changing scenery, environments, and going outside is all part of this toolbox, and can be used to an effective extent to keep lessons feeling stimulating and varied. And by doing so, the teacher is opening up lessons to a fun and exciting range of...  [Read more]
