How to Pronounce 'BELLWETHER' - English Pronunciation

 

In this episode, we cover the pronunciation of the word "bellwether". This word is a noun and describes someone who takes the lead and sets trends. A long time ago, shepherds hung a bell around the neck of one sheep of its flock designating it the leader. Therefore, bellwether is a combination of the words "bell" and "wether", a male sheep that has been castrated.


Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching. This convenient, highly structured design means that you can quickly get to grips with each section before moving onto the next.

The framework for a business English class being identical to that of any other ESA based program makes the development of effective instruction simpler. I am hoping that if I should have the opportunity to run sessions like this that I will be able to leverage the framework effectively. I must keep in mind the differing motivations and objectives of the individual learners.This unit gave me a better idea of how to structure a lesson in terms of delivering content and providing feedback. The games mentioned are wonderful examples of how to present a lesson without the student even realizing they are learning. I did not realize how the flow of a class could be formed to optimize not only the students attention but also the impact of the content.
