  http://www.teflcourse.net In this TESL training video the teaching idea for the past perfect continuous tense involves giving the students a prompt and asking them to finish it with a sensible answer in the past perfect continuous tense. For example: I didn't have dinner last night... because I had been snacking all day. She passed the test... because she had been studying hard. The past perfect continuous is a rarely used tense and is often quit confusing for learners of English as well as new English teachers. Taking a 120-hour online teaching course with ITTT will give the knowledge needed to make sure you know how to explain such tenses to students the moment you step into your first TESL classroom. /// -~-~~-~~~-~~-~- Are you ready to Teach English Abroad?...  [Read more]

Federico Riva TEFL Information Alumni Experiences Teaching Ideas The second of the productive skills is writing and here again we'll have a look at the background needed to create a typical lesson for writing skills. One of the things to be aware of in a writing skills lesson is that writing tends to be more formal than spoken English, so there will be some differences between the two. An example is that writing very often uses less contracted forms. On the other hand, there are also many similarities between the two skills. This means many of the considerations that we had for a speaking skills lesson will also apply here to a writing skills lesson. Within writing skills itself there are some sub skills...  [Read more]

Federico Riva Alumni Experiences The English language is becoming a global language, and many people are aspiring to learn the language for different reasons such as to gain work opportunities, for school, to communicate with friends and many more. From my experience, the best way to learn the English language is to go to classes whether they are regular or special classes. Learning English in the classroom is a fulfilling thing, especially to students whose English is not their first language. They get to learn the fundamentals of the language so that they have a better experience in their later years. However, teachers face an uphill task in managing the classroom so that they can provide a conducive learning environment for students to learn....  [Read more]

Hadassah Roberts Destinations TEFL Information We are all human. Let’s face it. Arguments, miscommunications, and considerations are inevitable. Unless we are going to go hide in the mountains forever to be alone, we are going to disagree with people and be disagreed with. Unless we forever stay by ourselves, we are going to have times when other people hurt us and when we hurt others. Since we know that arguments are inevitable in the course of our life, maybe there is a way that the common argument can be turned into a beautiful conversation where everyone actually leaves happy, where everyone feels understood, and both sides always find a solution. Here accusations and explosive behavior are minimized where reasoning and...  [Read more]

In this post I look at some important aspects of etiquette in different countries in Europe that any TEFL certification graduate should keep in mind.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas I have been teaching English to young learners in China for almost a year and I tried to make my lessons with and without flashcards.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Parents' role in education might sound like a little bit weird topic, shouldn’t the teacher be, the most important body of education?! As teachers see their students nearly every day of the week, the school becomes like a second home to the students with all their friends around them with an environment of rules on the one hand and on the other hand an environment where the parents are not able to have a direct eye on their kids. In most countries, students spend more time at school and interacting with school topics than being at home or spending time with their families.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Classroom management is important in part of teaching, and the effect of classroom management directly affects classroom efficiency. Therefore, learning how to effectively manage the classroom is a required course for every teacher.
