Most Common Problems for English Learners in Spanish-Speaking Colombia - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Teaching Ideas
For this assignment, I decided to research problems experienced by Colombian students learning English. I will be teaching English in Colombia and thought this subject would benefit me. My findings more generally reflect the difficulties of Spanish-speaking learners. The paper outlines the top ten difficulties for Spanish-speakers learning English (vocabulary, spelling/pronunciation, subject-verb-agreement, verb tense, dialects, subject omission, pronunciation, stress, slang, and literal translations) based on CCJK (2019). Where possible I relate this information to my experiences/examples and units in the TEFL course.

How Teaching Slang Can Benefit Your ESL Students - TEFL Blog
Linda Dunsmore
Alumni Experiences
Stepping onto my flight from Miami to Santiago, Chile, I was confident in my Spanish skills. After all, I had taken nearly seven years of Spanish classes in middle and high school. However, when I landed I found, not only did I not understand 80% of what my host family said to me, they couldn't understand me either.
Listen to this blog post:
"Learning slang words is immensely helpful."
"I was more motivated to retain these pieces of vocabulary and try them out in an attempt to sound more natural."
"Learning slang can also open up the conversation for cultural exchange."
"There are many activities that could be used to teach slang words."

Is Teaching Slang and Idioms Important for ESL Students? - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Teaching Ideas
Slang and idioms are often omitted from the formal education curriculum. According to the Cambridge dictionary, slang is defined as a "very informal language that is usually spoken rather than written, used especially by particular groups of people" and an idiom is defined as "a group of words in a fixed order that have a particular meaning that is different from the meanings of each word on its own". This essay will suggest possible reasons why slang and idioms are often excluded from formal English lessons, and posit that it is important to teach them to certain groups of ESL students namely, students who have moved to an English-speaking country with little or no prior knowledge of the language and students with high English language ability.

Teaching Idioms and Slang: Why Learning Idioms and Slang Connects Cultures - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Alumni Experiences
When it comes to learning a new language, the way that we make it comfortable for us is to try and relate it to our language. How many times have you met someone from another country and you ask them how to use swear words or how to say something is cool in their native language. Since English is very commonly spoken all over the world, for students to learn idioms and slang is for them to not only learn how to say certain things but get a deeper cultural understanding. With that deeper understanding comes relativity to their own lives, which means they see the ways that we are more similar instead of different.

Decoding Common British Slang: What It Really Means
