Thu, 09 Jul 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Why Should Students be Praised for their Achievements in the Classroom? Even though some people might disagree with the idea of praising students in the classroom, I hold a strong belief that it is of paramount importance. Praising assists teachers in making students aware of what they have attained. It can be done verbally, through body language or in writing. Nevertheless, praise should be timely, honest, and measured. It could be mutually advantageous for teachers and students. The former will benefit from cementing a healthy relationship with the latter; and the latter will be able to strengthen his or her confidence. Conversely, it could have a detrimental effect on both. For this reason, I will exemplify the advantages and...  [Read more]

Thu, 09 May 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences How do you bring language to life in the classroom?
