Thu, 06 Aug 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas A Short Guide for Preparing Course Materials for TEFL Teaching Course materials are the ingredients of the class, that if implemented effectively, make it taste good.

Lesson Planning - Part 6 - Lesson Plan Example - Study Phase   The first part of my study phase is going to be the board work and I'm going to use the information that I generated in the elicitation part of my engage phase to move on to the actual board work.
