Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas When it comes to an ESL (English Second Language) class, the first thing we should remember is that non-native speakers are normally deprived of the level of confidence they need to fulfill their learning potential in its entirety. This is why it’s important for a teacher to provide them with an appropriate background at a stretch of a lesson, favorable atmosphere and an opportunity to move at their own pace. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Valentina V. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT. It goes without saying that not only students, who learn a second language, can be rather short of confidence but they may also feel...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences As babies and toddlers, learning a language is a natural thing. We listen, watch, learn, and eventually try speaking for ourselves. We make many mistakes. As a toddler, mistakes are adorable. Our parents, siblings, and grandparents can't get enough of our attempts at language. However, as we get older, mistakes are no longer cute and can become somewhat embarrassing, causing us to fear trying new things. This fear can make learning a new language particularly difficult as we get older. As teachers of foreign languages, it is important to help our students feel comfortable trying new things and even making mistakes. If our students can feel confident, even when they are wrong, they won't be afraid to try. This...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Teachers need to continuously monitor and evaluate their teaching techniques so that they can better prepare themselves to address unpredictable situations, as well as set realistic expectations for themselves and their students. The ultimate objective is to improve the quality of the service that is being provided and guarantee the effectiveness of the overall environment, resources, communication, and teaching techniques. Self-analysis is also about identifying thinking patterns and habits that are counterproductive and why and how they can be managed. What is more, the practice of self-analysis certainly generates more motivation to dig deeper and begin identifying and addressing problems/drawbacks; ultimately,...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences We would all like to be the perfect ITTT English teacher. However, various dynamics could at times affect our best intentions and love for teaching. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Jenny H. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT. The reality is that relocation to another country will be involved to pursue an ITTT English teaching career abroad. Whilst this opportunity will present with much excitement, it would also not necessarily be without its stresses. Further to this, there will be many extended hours involved in the preparation of various learning materials, tasks, progressive tests, and daily lesson planning for an...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Losing one’s temper in front of students is one of the most problematic scenes in classrooms. I remember being a new teacher in a class filled with twenty-six first graders, nothing ever prepared me for that moment, when they all needed to use the washroom or help to open their lunch boxes. The frustration I faced daily, along with little to no coping strategies were ultimately the key elements that helped me decide to never work with very young learners. There are many reasons why teachers lose their temper in classroom settings, but the good news is there are many ways we can regain control and recreate positive learning environments, as we will discuss in this essay. This post was written by our TEFL...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Teaching profession today has become more challenging due to the constant development and innovative experiments in the field of education. A role of a teacher is significantly changing. In this era of technology-based teaching, a teacher has to keep himself or herself updated with the latest happenings taking place in the profession. Apart from the personal growth, the teacher also has to focus on professional growth. There are many options available outside in the market which offer help for the same. The best way to achieve this is through ‘Self Analysis’. A teacher must need to evaluate himself as well as his teaching techniques which in result will help him to find out the components he has to improve in,...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Teacher self-analysis in the classroom is just as important as a critical self-reflection upon the unfolding of our lives. To know whether or not our students are getting the most out of our course, the first step must be to critically assess whether or not we are upholding our values and/or philosophical approaches to teaching. Without remaining mindful of our intentions for and approaches to teaching, it may be easy to lose sight of one’s long term goals and could result in disorganization, a loss in student interest, and/or a poor student to teacher relationship. But being critical of the self is difficult due to our loyalties and beliefs that frame our perception. So how is the eye able to see the eye? This...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences The year was 1992, I was going to my first English class. I was so excited to begin. I’d always wanted to learn that language. The movies, music and everything I loved the most was in English. I was ten years old, my whole class was the same age, but the only thing I didn’t know was they were much ahead of me. The course placed me in a classroom with kids that were already speaking English since they were six years old. They spoke all the time and I couldn’t understand anything. I felt so disappointed and ashamed, I couldn’t even comprehend the difference between him and her. Even my teacher made fun of me. As a result, I got out of the course after lots of swollen eyes and arguments with my parents....  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences "To be a good teacher, you need to love what you teach. Teachers are given the word not to put their thoughts to sleep, but to wake someone else's." - V. Klyuchevsky, Russian historian This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Zarina S. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT. A teacher who is able to learn will also be able to grow as a specialist, improve in his/her pedagogical activity and perfect his/her professional skills. The first and constant helper in this process is a teacher himself (herself). I believe that along with many well-known forms of improving the qualifications of teachers, self-analysis is one of the most effective...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Before getting into teaching I had a good experience in the corporate sector. Training always had my interest, but never I thought that my first day would be so unpredictable. As I was a fresher in the training field, I could always relate with my students. I could just feel that if after having reasonable knowledge I could be nervous and unconfident, students can sure be. The day I am talking about was my first demo lecture for a group of students. As the students started entering the classroom, my mind was just running towards the unknown queries I may have to face. But, gradually I understood that to have an answer to all questions was a very wrong expectation to keep from oneself. The first day taught me...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Self-assessment is a process through which teachers get to evaluate their work, learning and teaching progress. Self-assessment is a valuable learning tool as well as part of the general assessment process. Teacher self-assessment is important for the following reasons. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate TIEMAKO N. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT. It is not enough to just teach the content as it is or as you know it. Self-evaluation is very important because it allows teachers to objectively assess not only their contents/knowledge but the way they teach it. This is an important step because students deserve updated teachers and...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Self-confidence has been seen as a major contributor to a person learning a language. As a teacher and a counselor, I agree with Jack Welch’s quote: Giving people self-confidence is by far the most important thing that I can do because then they will act. Confidence exists of three realms: who I am, what I can learn, and what I can do. These are steps that can be taken to help Chinese Business English students improve confidence in these realms. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate William N. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT. Self-confidence is the total of attributes which enable the use of acquiring knowledge and application of...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Self-confidence is not an easy trait to gain, especially when we talk about teachers. Self-confidence is obvious and easy to observe from all people, whether students or other teachers. When the teacher has a lack or weakness in self-confidence, their students or their coworkers will see that during the explanation, when she/he talks in front of the students and answering some questions in the class. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Walaa S. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT. Self-confidence is also associated with creativity, whenever the teacher is confident of himself/herself then, he/she will show the creative aspect of...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina TEFL Information Alumni Experiences Teaching Ideas This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Olga S. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT. Referring to the "Cambridge dictionary," "confidence" is "the quality of being certain of your abilities or of having trust in people, plans or the future." Another source such as "collinsdictioary.com" defines confidence as: * "Belief in one's abilities; self-assurance." * "A feeling of trust in a person or thing." Some of us often say: "I can do it!" but some of us, unfortunately, do not. Those who are doubting themselves and their abilities need to build their self-esteem or...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Teaching is a profession that calls upon a teacher to embody many different characteristics and qualities for them to be able to perform in their role successfully. Among other things, an argument can be made that it is essential, or at least beneficial, for a teacher to be someone who is or can become comfortable in their role for their students. A key component of achieving this goal is to be confident in their ability. Careful examination suggests that a greater level of self-confidence on the part of the teacher in the classroom positively affects the learning experience for students and the teaching experience for the teacher. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Levontre H. Please...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Speaking is the most frequently used language skill. Moreover, English has attained an important status on the international level and become a lingua franca among speakers of languages. This encourages EFL students to learn it. They want to become proficient speakers. However, some psychological factors prevent them from achieving their goal, among them is a lack of self-confidence. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate Joseph K. Please note that this blog post might not necessarily represent the beliefs or opinions of ITTT. According to Whitaker (1995), “every learner requires first and foremost: to be noticed, to be attended to, to be valued, and to be affirmed. Out of that attention and...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Teaching is one of the most important occupations in society. And Even though teachers are not appreciated in many parts of the world, their importance is unquestionable. They build up the next generations and without them, society would eventually fall. Being a teacher requires a specific set of skills. Some people are more talented than others in delivering information or explaining. However, with learning and patience, anyone can be a teacher. These specific teaching skills are divided into two main directions: Design and delivery. In the following paragraphs, I am talking in more detail about them. I am also starting with the definition of a teacher. This post was written by our TEFL certification graduate...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Teaching can be a very fulfilling and enjoyable occupation. It is, however, also filled with a lot of challenges. The workload can be high, the hours long, the course material may be difficult, and the students themselves can make a lot of difficulty for the teacher. As most teachers will attest there will be students who are difficult to deal with. They can be unmotivated, distracted, tired, or even purposefully disruptive. Many teachers have quit the profession because of unruly classes. Many more teachers have lost their temper and ruined a class because of this. There are, however, many ways to manage unruly students. Sometimes, they even become the very best students. This post was written by our TEFL...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina TEFL Information Alumni Experiences Teaching Ideas Motivation is the act of giving a reason or reason to carry out a task and or function. In today’s society schools are becoming more and more diverse and as such it provides teachers and students an extra task to try and learn about individuals in their surroundings. As we all know, a student’s background plays a role in the student’s receptive and productive skills. Hence the reason for building rapport with students. Not all students are self-motivated, so teachers need to motivate them and encourage them to develop self-motivation. Motivating students is essential as it promotes learning, growth and self-development, and truancy...  [Read more]

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas It is critical and necessary, that as purveyors of educational content, a teacher ensures they undertake periodic analysis of their methods, rationale, and motivations for the job. Periodic self-analysis is important, as it can be one defining factor in what separates a “good” from a “great” teacher. In my experience as a teacher, I have often used a teaching log to note my findings and experiences in the classroom. Brookfield (1995) defines a teaching log “as a weekly record of the events in a teacher’s life that have impressed themselves most vividly on his or her consciousness”(p.72). In this paper, I present four main ideas, based on experience, in favor of a critical self-analytical method and...  [Read more]
