Mon, 17 Jun 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas How Might Language Teachers Productively Blur the Line Between Tasks, Games, and Testing? In the following essay, I consider something like a continuum from task to the game to assessment, but only in the bookend learning moments of "input" and "output." I often think of learners in my classrooms as a gray box—not quite a "black box," the inner workings of which are completely mysterious, but a thing into which we only ever have uncertain, provisional insight. We can do all sorts of theorizing about language acquisition and psychometry but will never have anything as exact as a litmus test. However accurate my notion is, it motivates me to focus on things that are much more knowable and observable: the inputs and outputs of a...  [Read more]

The Correct Order of Adjectives in English   When you use more than one adjective, you have to put them in the right order or it will sound very strange. Do you say, "I want a big black cat" or "I want a black big cat?" Let's take a look at infographic below.   So, do you say, "I want a big black cat" or "I want a black big cat?" The first one is correct. Why? If "big" is size and "black" is color, then it should come first because size is number (2) and color is number (5) on the infographic above.

Mon, 27 Jul 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Praising Students: Is it Necessary for ESL Settings? I am a teacher in a training center for young learners in China, Beijing. Our school has a praise system, to be more precise our school has its own money that students can use to buy some toys from our school's shop. To get this money students should listen to the teacher, do their homework, and pass the tests. The teachers can give them money even for each lesson if they want. And it is really useful to maintain discipline in the classroom. It's the first reason why we should praise the students. The second reason is that if you praise the students it increases their self-esteem and they are more likely to enjoy their course and be motivated during it.

Tue, 14 Jan 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Classroom Management in an EFL Setting: Transcending Language to Enhance Learning Educators have debated on the topic of classroom management since the first class began. In the same way curricula and teaching cultures vary, as do the intricacies of classroom management. A topic that is, in my opinion, not taught enough in the realm of TEFL, is finding ways to manage a full classroom of young students for an entire day. As the trend for "kindergarten" prep courses rises in China, the void for managing 20+ five-year-olds has been dark and silent. Because many principals in these prep centers refuse to allow Mandarin in the classroom and the fact that these students do not initially understand basic commands in English, this creates a...  [Read more]

Should I teach English in a small town? If you are considering national recruitment programs like South Korea's EPIK or France's TAPIF, you may not have much say in your placement location. Conversely, if you are applying for individual roles, you will likely have a broader choice of destinations. But what is the ideal environment for overseas English teaching? Many gravitate towards urban centers due to the abundance of job opportunities and vibrant city life. However, we believe that the charm and advantages of teaching in smaller towns might be more appealing for some. Here are a few compelling reasons: Less pollution and noise Many of today's global cities are grappling with significant air pollution, a concern for many, including English teachers. Would it not be preferable to enjoy...  [Read more]

Should I teach English in a small town? While many aspiring English teachers naturally lean towards urban centers for the sheer volume of job opportunities and bustling city life, there is a distinct allure to teaching in smaller towns.

However, for those with the freedom to choose, the benefits of small-town teaching can be substantial and rewarding.

Mon, 06 May 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas How To Create Interesting Teaching Materials Legendary musician Paul McCartney once said, or rather sang, "When you've got a job to do you've got to do it well. You've got to give the other fellow hell." I don't believe anybody wants to be the middle of the road teacher, who just gets through each day, though I have seen many teachers who are. Before I started, I asked myself what makes the best kind of teacher and who were the best teachers in my life? There are many styles of teacher, but the answer I came to is the inspiring style of teacher – the teachers who made me WANT to learn and to go out and read and study on my own. The way they did that was by using their skills to make learning interesting and irresistible. Table...  [Read more]

Mon, 21 Sep 2020 Gianluca Costa Destinations Alumni Experiences The 11 Most Useful Apps to Travel to Hong Kong After traveling to a few cities in Asia, I think Hong Kong should be on top of everyone's travel bucket list.
