I recognized a lot of the same lack of interest in learning as I saw during my own high school...  [Read more]

Mon, 04 Nov 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Top Tips for Teaching English to Younger Students Online Whether online or in-person teaching English to children is higher energy than adults. A teacher must be kind, happy, fun and energetic. A teacher must speak clearly, slowly as needed and use lots of hand gestures, visual aids, and props.
