 Re: English through communicative activities
An approach that almost guarantees a poignant, engaging course is to:
1) spend the first class truly getting to know your particular students and their current interests and concerns, and then
2) weave these topics into the syllabus as much as possible
Also, it’s a good idea to get into the habit of saving the lessons you create and keeping a notebook where you can reflect upon them. Through this, over time you will:
A) amass your own personal library of lessons that have proven successful
B) be able to develop a lot faster as a teacher by virtue of such detailed reflection and deep contemplation |
