Why learn how to teach English to children?
Reason #1: Because one day you might have some of your own!
Children love stories - hearing them and reading them!
Watch English Raven Junior performing The Very Hungry Caterpillar for his parents, aged 2. Nightly story reading before bed does pay off!
Likewise, an early and constant exposure to tons of story books will work wonders for your young students' language development.
Do you teach a child to drive a car before you teach him phonics?
Well, no - but developing motor skills will - believe it or not - help children in their basic phonics development in both first AND second languages. Basically, children need to learn how to drive their crayon around before they start to write English letters.

A Test of Speaking... FOR TEACHERS?
As teachers, usually we are the ones handing out the tests for learners to take, but how often do teachers test themselves - in terms of both clear speaking ability AND English teaching proficiency?
CLICK HERE to try Jason's beta/experimental version of an online test for English Language Teachers. Besides speaking proficiency, this test checks your ability to:
- model language clearly and present visuals
- answer students' questions about language
- give feedback to students
- discuss methodology & present teaching solutions
- give your opinion about educational issues
FREE Flashcards for May/June only!
Occupations Flashcards - This extensive set of cards (40 total) illustrates plenty of those common occupations so typically featured in low level EFL textbooks, but also includes some more specialized jobs to give students some wider exposure to the vast range of work roles people fulfill.
