How to Foster Motivation in the Classroom - TEFL Blog

Teaching Ideas
A motivated student is a student who is eager to learn, and that means they are much more likely to absorb and retain what they are being taught than if they were disengaged or disinterested. This is why it is so important for teachers to foster motivation in the classroom and engage their students to be open to learning before the start of each lesson.

How to Teach Receptive Skills in The Classroom - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Teaching Ideas
The four basic language skills are divided into two categories; the receptive ("passive") skills — reading and listening, and the productive ("active") skills — speaking and writing. All are invaluable skills to learn when becoming proficient in a new foreign language and teachers should try to incorporate them into their lessons whenever possible. However, this summative task will be solely focused on receptive skills and how to teach them in the classroom. Students may need to read/listen for a purpose — for example, reading an extract of a book as part of their homework assignment, or they may want to read/listen for entertainment — for example, listening to their favorite audiobook. These skills are also important to learn... [Read more]

Self-confidence has been seen as a major contributor to a person learning a language. As a teacher and a counselor, I agree with Jack Welch's quote: Giving people self-confidence is by far the most important thing that I can do because then they will act. Confidence exists of three realms: who I am, what I can learn, and what I can do. These are steps that can be taken to help Chinese Business English students improve confidence in these realms.

How To Encourage Your Students to Overcome Stress and Speak Out in English - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Teaching Ideas
Expressing ourselves in a language that it is not our native language could be for most students frustrating and intimidating, especially when they are in a room full of people and there is a fear to be judged by peers and their teacher who is carefully listening to them; these feelings are the ones that stress out and hold down students, preventing them from participating in class, and as a consequence they do not practice and learn English efficiently. There could be many reasons for students to stress in the classroom, some students may simply be shy, some may be afraid to make mistakes and others may just lack English knowledge and vocabulary to express their ideas.

How to go from teaching English online to teaching in-class? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL FAQs
This post discussion focuses on making the transition between teaching English as a second or foreign language online to doing the same thing in a physical classroom. It assumes you have been teaching for some time online in a particular situation and therefore have background knowledge of teaching.
There are three main factors that we will cover:
Teaching English online may be done from anywhere in the world where a good stable internet connection is available.

How to Assist Students in Developing their Receptive Skills - TEFL Blog
Federico Riva
TEFL Information Alumni Experiences
When learning any language, there are four basic skills you will need to acquire, including reading, listening, speaking, and writing. Reading and listening are known as receptive skills, while speaking and writing are known as productive skills because you will have moved on to producing the language you have learned. Usually, a learner's receptive skills will develop much quicker than their productive skills. This means that when students are learning a new language, they won't be able to actually produce, or speak and write, as much as they will be able to understand through listening and reading.
