Some might have resorted to strict penalties for minor mistakes, others may have been tediously boring or simply failed to heed their students' feedback.

Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas As language acquisition through immersion goes, reading is positively amazing. Where movies may help with attitude and tone, reading allows us to see the words, form visual connections between them, and familiarise ourselves with spelling, punctuation, and structure. The best results, of course, are seen in readers who do it for pleasure, and for whom the point of reading is not simply to be done with it. How, then, do we get our children to read for fun when most of them seem to dread it? Step One: Drop mandatory/standardized reading Step Two: Make it social Step Three: Accept differences Do you want to teach English abroad? Take a TEFL course!
