Tue, 07 Jul 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Typical Challenges Faced by English Students from Cambodia There are always struggles and problems with learners of English as a foreign language in different countries. Cambodia is no exception. The Cambodian educational system has undergone many changes in its history. The Pol Pot genocidal regime between 1975-1979 forced the educational system of the nation to collapse.

Thu, 14 Mar 2019 Jon ITTT Alumni Experiences My Amazing Personal Teaching Experience My teaching experience started back in 1988 where I was working for a company called Bryco Windows. They are a UPVC window and door manufacturer where my position was Sales Trainer. My job was to teach new staff and train them to understand the sales process and how to close the sale.

Sometimes this got very hard with some sales people and many people left. The employee turnover was very high as not many people actually could master it.

Fri, 24 Jan 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences English as a Global Language: What Motivates Students to Learn English?

English is one of them. It is spoken and written by billions of people around the world.

Tue, 17 Mar 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Why Music is Crucial in a Classroom Music is something that nearly everyone in the world enjoys. Music is a universal language. No matter what language you may speak, music is in every corner of the world and every culture. It is one of the many things that can unite people of all places and backgrounds. Because of this, I think music is essential in an English classroom. Especially in a multilingual or multicultural classroom, the students can relate to one another not only through their English knowledge but also through the fact that they like listening to music. If a song is in English, the students might not understand it. However, students can still enjoy a catchy melody or even just the instrumentals behind it while still...  [Read more]
