    Great tips. I am so grateful you did not waste our time. Most RUclips videos waste our time and you have to listen to 10-15 minutes to get one piece of useful content. You gave us lots of tips very quickly. Thank you.

    Roger Hunt is such a great teacher! Loved how he used storytelling with us CELTA trainees first hand!

    storytelling is such an underrated activity, if you are expanding vocabulary and exploring collocations it can't be beat; it's also terrific speaking and writing practice

    To get to know the name of your students and to quickly take roll. use a seating chart. Quick glance you can tell who is absent and then while teaching you can call on all the kids by their names.

    Can't believe no-one mentioned drilling, repetition and imitation.
    That is the only real technique you need. A baby can't read a white board or take dictation. It listens to its parents, and copies them. Adults aren't really any different. You can teach any language to anyone without using any resources at all. You have a pattern you want them to learn, and you just use it again and again and again in the lesson, in as many ways as you can, and in as many set-ups as you can be that drilling, dialogue, repetition etc.

      Knappa22 Linguistics has proven that just repetition, mimicry, and substitution drills don’t work completely. It has some use, but it can’t be the only techniques used. You need to contextualize language, not just memorize it. Students will get bored and retention rates will suffer. Most of language is used outside of the classroom, so you need to teach students how to be creative and active in their language use because otherwise, they’re just becoming robots who can’t think for themselves.

    Nah! Not really great! We go to class to learn something new from teachers so listening to your story is not interesting not sharing my personal stories. You are there to teach! If you teach effectively you don’t waste time on chitchatting in the class. Teachers go out of the topic while sharing their personal stories. It’s ok to give a couple of examples but don’t make that your teaching objective.
