 Re: teaching young kids using only English
I think the experts will tell you that 100% English is the way to go, but I'm not so sure one has to be that militant. I will explain a grammar topic in Spanish to my class to really get the point across. I think it depends on the type of class you are teaching and how often you see them. If you only see a specific class once or twice a week I think you should explain things in the native language if it is really important. If you see a class everyday you have the luxury of time and repetition so English can be more frequently. I don't know if others agree with me... |
