23. Classroom management tips for successful teaching.
Classroom management tips for successful teaching. Before you begin to
teach:
 Find out who your pupils are, practicalities
 Talk to the class teacher and find out if the children are complete
beginners in English or have already learnt a little.
 Are there any bilingual children in the class? If so, use them as your
helpers.
 Do any of the children speak another language?
You will find that the children will be highly motivated and excited about learning a
foreign language. Your main aim is to maintain this initial motivation and sustain their
curiosity and interest so that they develop a real desire to learn the language, even if you
don't feel they are learning very fast. You need to be realistic and so do the children
about how much they can learn in the relatively short time you will spend with them.
It is quite normal for children to take some time before they actually start producing
much language as they will need time to familiarize themselves with you - very
probably the first speaker of English they have met - and assimilate the language before
they feel ready and confident enough to produce any.
