Teaching the Individual: One-To-One v Groups
Jon ITTT
TEFL Information
By Kyle Cullinan
Although group lessons are enjoyable, one-to-one lessons are satisfying for teachers and students alike, offering unique advantages in language education.
In the realm of language education, the choice between one-to-one and group teaching settings carries significant implications for both educators and learners. Group classes, while fostering social interaction and diverse perspectives, often present challenges due to varying language levels among students. This diversity complicates the task of planning and delivering lessons that effectively cater to the majority. Conversely, one-to-one tutoring offers a focused environment where grammar concepts can be deeply explored, speaking and listening skills can be finely honed, and personalised... [Read more]

Strategies to Build Confidence in Students - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Teaching Ideas
When teaching students most of the time we mainly focus on just teaching them the language and having them pass some tests and that is how we measure if they have learned well or not. In reality, it is a bit different though. Knowing how to read, speak or write a language does not necessarily translate to the student excelling in the language. There is another often ignored factor called confidence. Confidence is necessary for success in many parts of life and it is no different when learning. One of the greatest gifts we can give our students is to instill in them a strong sense of confidence. In doing this, we enable them to be higher achievers.
Why Is Confidence important?
1. Mistakes are not bad
2. Saying Good Things is Great
3. Use Visual Aids
