EVERYTHING EFL

The language your students are producing spontaneously can be part of the lesson.

Is it on the curriculum? Who cares?

If your students are trying to tell you something, listen, make notes and use this valuable language for future lessons.

Do your students believe they can?

Do your student know how to self-regulate and be mindful?

Do you make sure this happens in your class?

This week I talk about the importance and benefits of a healthy mindset and mindfulness. Both of these concepts lend themselves beautifully to teaching a language.

Why, oh why are we still teaching words?

Why are we still sticking to the grammar rules and not teaching how the grammar works in conjunction with certain words, structures and phrases?

The Lexical Approach can transform your teaching and make impactful changes to the way you teach and your students learn.

Find out just a few of the many reasons why in this week's episode.

We've all been made to go to pointless professional development workshops, sessions, presentations........whatever they are called, there are definitely some things to avoid as a teacher trainer. I asked my fellow teachers on the social medias their opinion and I also put my 2 cents worth in.

If you are a teacher, does anything in this episode resonate with you?

What would you like to see in a good CPD session?

Stay tuned until the end to hear my special offer.

We all do it.

We all have our off days when we don't feel good enough.

However, they should be few and far between. If you need a hand getting through these negative emotions, start by listening to this episode.

You need to remember two things: I'm always here for you and you rock.

Planning taking up too much of your time?

There's so much you can do to cut down your prep time. This episode gives you just a taste of what you can do.

The rest, you can find out on my upcoming course, Mindset and Methods, where I go into this in deeper detail.

In the meantime, I challenge you to take one small thing from this episode and put it into action.

Plan less, react more. You deserve more free time.

What are your work-life boundaries?

Do you have any?

Isn't it about time you did?

I can't promise to solve all your issues with this bite-sized episode, but it will pack enough of a punch to inspire you.

Help yourself now: listen and make a promise to yourself to change that boundary line.

Because you're worth more.

We all want to spend less time preparing our lessons but we want to maintain the quality.

Easier said than done. You don't need gimmicks or tons of games: you just need a few tips and tricks to exploit what you're already working with.

We also need to exploit our students more. That isn't as sinister as it sounds....

Join me this week as I give you some simple things to do that will put no further strain on your prep time. In fact, these easy-to-implement tasks may well reduce it!

Well, that's where this episode starts off, anyway.

This week my guest is the wonderful Kate Clifton, from the Kate Languages podcast.

We talk about how to manage expectations from upcoming exam pressures, digress into what to teach that isn't necessarily on the syllabus.

We also take a dive into switching it up in class to keep your learners on their toes and we ping pong a few practical activities and tasks for you to try out in class.

Connect with Kate: https://katelanguages.co.uk/

Kate Clifton, also known as Kate Languages, writes French, German and Spanish teaching resources, teaches languages to languages teachers and delivers training on a range of topics such as phonics, stretch and challenge, and how to exploit one text in a number of different ways. She has created a large number of teaching resources, she’s been commissioned by BBC Bitesize to write content for the GCSE and Key Stage 3 French Bitesize pages, she has created primary French and Spanish lessons for EuHu (pronounced yoohoo) and she also has her own podcast, The Kate Languages Podcast, where she discusses all things language teaching and teacher wellbeing. She is also mum to a 4-year-old boy and loves spending time outside with her family, cooking and reading!
