Teaching Practice: Great Privilege and Responsibility - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Teaching Ideas
My friends and I live in a predominantly Indian neighborhood in a suburban Midwest town in the United States. Most of our neighbors are Indian nationals who are in the US temporarily on corporate-sponsored work visas, families where one or both parents work outside the home during the day while their children attend local American public schools. One of my friends, a high school math teacher, was asked by her neighbor to tutor two elementary school-aged children in English, her son in first grade, and her daughter in third grade.

What makes a great TEFL teacher? - ✔️ ✔️ ✔️ TEFL FAQs

A standout TEFL teacher doesn't just teach; they inspire, motivate, and pave the way for meaningful language learning experiences.

Passion
Patience
Organization
Adaptability

The Great Experience of Taking a TEFL Course - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Teaching Ideas
When I first signed up to take the TEFL I thought it was going to be about very common words and phrases we use in the English language every day but it taught me so much more than I ever thought. I learned so much about what's the best way to deal with misbehaving students, how to teach past tenses, and so much more. When I first thought about getting my TEFL and to hopefully one day be in a classroom of my own teaching English to students, I never thought about everything that comes with the title of being a teacher.

8 Classroom Activities that are Great for Kinesthetic Learners - TEFL Blog
Mark Crocker
Alumni Experiences Teaching Ideas
Kinesthetic learners are learners that learn through objects that they can touch and explore. They also learn best by discovering and experiencing and particularly enjoy physical activities that involve getting out of their seat and moving around. Unlike visual and auditory learners, kinesthetic learners can be tough to accommodate in the classroom because of their need to be physically active. Since they need to be active in their learning, they may get bored very quickly if you allow them to simply listen and look at your visual aids or video presentation. As teachers, we must always be versatile and understand how to incorporate different types of learners. Luckily, there are many fun ways for kinesthetic learners to learn.
