English Grammar -- Present Simple -- Teaching Ideas 3 -- TEFL Course

 

http://www.teflonline.net The Present Simple tense teaching idea in this video is called "20 Questions." The teacher frames this game in the context of, What's my job? Who am I? What am I? (for objects) A student comes to the front of the room and selects a card. The class then asks appropriate questions such as; Do you work in an office? Do you wear a uniform? And try to guess the job, person or object. The student with the card answers using the Present Simple. Each student has a turn and there is a two minute time limit for each person. When teaching the Present Simple tense or any other grammar point, a good English language teacher will always model the language correctly. Students need to be exposed to new language, they need to understand its meaning, they need to understand how it is constructed and they need to be given as many opportunities to practice and produce it as possible. An ITTT TEFL Course will give you the appropriate skills to be able to model the language and deliver productive and meaningful lessons to your students.

Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching. This convenient, highly structured design means that you can quickly get to grips with each section before moving onto the next.

As the warning at the beginning of the unit and the video said, the future tenses are the most difficult ones. I always thought there were only five, now I learned that there are seven future tenses. When explaining these tenses, high attention level will be asked from both the students and the teacher.As you visit classrooms, you probably notice that most, if not all, of those classrooms use a standard textbook series. The reasons for this are many, depending on the design and focus of the curriculum, the mandates of the administration, and/or the level of expertise on the part of classroom teachers.
