RE: Rethinking English Seminars: Stories and Games in a Japanese Vocational College Classroom

in #alive6 days ago

When I did my CELTA years ago ( which unfortunately I never put into practice) we had to learn lesson planning. It was a totally new concept to me, it never occurred to me how much planning goes into a lesson, I just thought a teacher just rolls up into the classroom every day.

Involving games into a lesson is always a great way to pique students interests especially when the teacher loses!!

Sort:  

When I did my TEFL (even more years ago) I didn't enjoy the lesson planning bit very much at all! I wasn't even sure that English language teaching was for me, but I wanted to experience life abroad and that was the best way for me to do it!

I just thought a teacher just rolls up into the classroom every day.

He he, yep, that's pretty much how it goes in a lot of classes!
