Modern english teaching in primary school

Some advice for primary English teachers:
Self-Confidence

• 
  Children are often more confident in themselves when they learn English as a second language. Because they are learning new words, definitions and grammar rules, students feel a sense of accomplishment for their achievements. Once children understand the benefits of learning, they may become even more eager to study other languages in addition to English. English can also improve their social and business skills in the future.
  

Cultures

• 
  Children will enjoy learning about other countries, people and places through studying English. Many countries speak English and students will be exposed to their customs and traditions through learning new vocabulary and practices. Children may also become interested in learning about other countries, cultures and languages because of their interest in English and the cultures of English-speaking countries.
  

Creative Activities

• 
  Children should realize that by learning to speak English, they are increasing their ability to perform other creative activities. Because learning second languages helps children to exercise and strengthen the faculties of the brain, they often become better at other creative activities. Even things like math and sports will become simpler because students will be increasing their usage of the brain's gray matter, which helps to process information and to improve sensory perception and memory.
  

Speaking English at Home

• 
  Children and adults are prone to learning language through immersion, and speaking English in the home exposes children to the language. Young children especially like to imitate parents, so using simple English phrases at home can influence a child's English vocabulary. Speaking English at home also reinforces that the English language is important to the family and children have a positive impression of learning the new language.
  

Reading

• 
  Books can be educational and entertaining for children. Picture books can be helpful for children to learn new English words through association with an illustration they recognize. English translations of a child's favorite books from her native language can also be a valuable resource for comprehension of English words. Seeing English words in context or with illustrations can be helpful to recognize the many English homonyms that are often difficult for those learning the language.
