GENERAL ADVICE

Personalise the language  

Get students to practise words and sentence


patterns by making TRUE sentences about
THEMSELVES. Emphasise that the sentences
should to be true and personalised; sentences
that are, for example, about a fictional ‘John and
Mary’ will not generate any discussion. With true
sentences, students can pair up and take turns
reading their sentences and discussing them. A
good class wrap-up for this is to have students tell
the class something they found out about their
partner. Personalised questions using the target
words, phrases, or grammar patterns can be used
in a similar fashion.

Assign homework

Many of the sections, especially the test practice


sections, can be done at home and the answers
discussed in class. Writing homework should also
be given on a regular basis.

Correct mistakes

Students like to know when they are making


mistakes. Rather than just correcting verbally,
write the errors and corrections up on the board.
This works well for writing errors and speaking
errors that you overhear, but there are times such
as during a class discussion when you do not want
to break the flow. For this, a simple oral correction
– repeating what the student said with the added
correction – works best.

Try and keep ‘teacher talk’ to a minimum.


Increase Student Speaking Time by doing pair
work and group work. Remember to change pairs
so that students aren’t always working with the
same partners.

Focus on usage rather than explanation


It’s very easy to get sidetracked with long
explanations about words and phrases, especially
when it comes to explaining the subtle differences
