Intensive English teaching methods and resources
|
|
Hello dear teachers!!! I´d apprecitate all your suggestions!! An adult student will be taking intensive English classes with me next week since he wants to move to Canada with his family as soon as he finds a job in that country. His main aim is to improve his speaking and communicative skills. I hope you can guide me in terms of materials to teach him. Do students actually use coursebooks to learn english for specific purposes or communicative english ? I believe this is a great website to learn from each other. Thanks a lot in advance!! kindest regards!! |

I also recommend getting your student to listen to a chapter a day from an audio book in English. When I read a book in Spanish, I keep stopping and looking up words and phrases I do not know. With an audiobook, that is not possible,but I get the gist and end up learning more as well as improving my listening skills. I also benefit in that I can go out and exercise when listening to audiobooks. One other thing, when I have done intensives in the past, my boss would send me to eat with the students while keeping the meal-time conversation in English. One other thing, try and use games and short videos with questions to get away from the textbooks. It is a more natural process. |

It can be either "instructing us on" or "instructing us in" as I see it, but I lean more toward "in" in this case.
"instruct in" vs "instruct on"Both
�instruct in� and �instruct on� are correct phrases, but they are used
in different contexts. �Instruct in� is used when referring to the
subject or skill being taught, while �instruct on� is used when
referring to the topic or content of the instruction. https://textranch.com/c/instruct-in-or-instruct-on/

Mere suggestion
|
|
Hello everyone! I�d like to make a humble suggestion. I know I haven�t been here in a loooooooooong time, but I do come in from time to time. And I find wonderful worksheets and resources. But.... sometimes I find these wonderful worksheets so difficult to read, because the size of the font is so tiny! Sometimes it�s put at 8 or 9... sometimes even 7. I assume the creators do this in order to fit many exercises in just one page, but believe me, it�s not practical. I mean, for example, if I download a worksheet with tiny font, it is veeeeery time consuming for me, to be re-organizing the exercises in another word document in order to enlarge the size of the font. sometimes, it takes up to 3 pages to make all the exercises readable and writable (where students have to answer) I would suggest not to crowd up the page with so many exercises. if needed, make 2 pages. But have the text be READABLE, WRITABLE, AND PRINTABLE... if I print as is, the text is so tiny my students aren�t able to read it. In advance, I thank everyone for their hard work, and creativity! Sending hugs to all!!!! -Maria. |

Jeopardy game
|
Dear Sir/Madam,
I have put together a jeopardy game as a final material for the winter and spring semester for Go Getter 2 textbook.
I have used the material from the book, tests and WB. I do not claim it is authentic. But it took me quite a while to prepare it in a form of a game. I like to play it with my students. I am sure it will be popular among the teachers. but I am not sure if it contradicts the rules of your site. Who could I contact to approve the PP? Yours sincerely, Julia Kuchynska |

It should not be a problem. In fact, I think somebody has already posted that quiz on this site. |

As question tags relate to the main sentence, the answers to your questions are: 1/"isn.t it?", 2/"didn.t she?"

nominated for or nominated as ... both work, depending on the situation:

In this case, "nominated as" is mostly likely correct.

Try using a different browser if you are using Google Chrome. If you use Edge, you won�t have any problems downloading your own material. |

It all depends if the Browns are still living in that town or not and the first sentence "How long have the Browns lived in this town?" implies that they are still there because you have used the present perfect. However to complete the sentence "When did..." you must talk about something finished in the past because you are now using the past simple. So the correct answers would be: "When did the Browns move to this town?" or "When did the Browns arrive in this town?" If you use the sentence "When did the Browns live in this town?" it means they no longer live there. I hope that is clear. |
