Mon, 20 Jan 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences The Essential Qualities for Modern ESL Teachers I believe teaching English is a very important job, one that has a large impact and takes great care to do well. As teachers, we are the vessel through which our students receive information and how we present it can have a great impact on what the students learn, how much they learn and how thoroughly they learn it. Part of what makes teaching so challenging is that all students learn differently, a strategy that may help one student, may not resonate with another. Therefore teaching requires not only that a teacher is engaging and effective for one student, but that they find ways to reach every student. I believe a big part of achieving this as a teacher is the personal qualities...  [Read more]

Wed, 30 Oct 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas What Makes ESL Kindergarten so Challenging for Teachers? Any kind of teaching is always a big challenge itself, no matter who you teach what you teach and where you teach.

Fri, 15 Nov 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Confidence Increasing Strategies: an Effective Tutorial For ESL Teachers Since I am still relatively new to teaching, I felt it was important to reassure myself on why I choose this career path as well as my efficacy in the role.

I believe that the teacher needs to be a student first. As a teacher begins to develop more experience in their role over time, naturally follows comfort and sometimes comfort can lead to complacency. I believe that students cannot benefit from a complacent teaching professional because the world around us changes frequently. Students need to be...  [Read more]
