I always try to make my English classes fun for my students. I use a variety of exercises so we can move from one type of exercise to anotgher, giving the students some variety.
Global English
I encourage students to develop their own original ideas, and try to encourage an enjoyment of writing.
It helps if the students look at the overall idea being presented rather than just looking at each individual sentence. I encourage them to consider the overall meaning so they can better understand how various parts fit in. Doing this can give them a better understanding of the grammar.
I stop at regular intervals and ask questions to ensure the students understand what they are reading. Having discussions periodically about the content helps to encourage the students to have a better understanding of it.
In-depth discussions can help with this. Discussing not only what takes place in the text, but also having them come up with their own ideas and opinions about the text.
I would practice with them and zero in on key pronounciation weaknesses. Having them read a story out loud, stopping them whenever they say a word incorrectly helps. I slso record it and send them the recording via Whatsapp so they can listen at home and practice.
First, have them recite their entire presentation and take notes. Look for weak points, then have them present again, stopping them at each part that needs improvement. I'd make an audio recording of our session and send it to them so they can practice. If it's in person, I'd make a video recording as well to show them snd non-verbal things that could also be improved (posture, body movements, etc.)
Yes and I believe this is actually the best way. Grammar rules in English can be overwhelming for a non-native speaker.
I try to develop a rapport with them so that even if they find the language difficult they hopefully will enjoy the time with me and wish to try harder.
I don't know which school. In general, I can't guarantee that I'm familiar with the exact cirriculum in any particular school. I believe a solid knowledge of the language is essential so that the student can enter any school with confidence.
I ask them to send me a scan or photo of any particular exam or assignment they want help with so that I can help them with it and we can work on it together.
Rapport is important here. I also try to have a variety of tasks for them to provide a bit of variety.
Sure. Test taking strstegies apply regardless of which specific exsm it is.
I often do. Sometimes my students request additionsl times or sessions if they have something important to work on.
I certainly can if the student has practice papers. For some exams I have old papers as well.
Sure. I can do better than that. I have a few hundred reader books at various levels which I've scanned which we can read together online if they like.
I'd heve the student send me everything first and then go from there. For emails or letters I'd go over it with them to edit it. For meetings, we may practice it together.
Again this is where an overall understanding of the story comes in.
I try to encourage an enjoyment of writing. If I'm successful, the student's own enjoyment if it will motivate them.
