A Lifetime Love for Language Learning - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Alumni Experiences
As a young child, I was, for some reason, obsessed with the idea of learning French. I tried a couple of languages, including Finnish at some point, but kept going back to French. I have no idea why because I was never exposed to the culture or the language itself at that age. I doubt I even knew anything about the country itself. I think I assumed learning French would make me sound smarter but, the joke's on younger me, I have no skill in French and never have. I tend to struggle with romance languages in general.

Readers Are Leaders: How to Instill a Love for Reading in Children? - TEFL Blog
Federico Riva
TEFL Information Alumni Experiences
Children usually prioritize their joy and prefer rewarding activities. They are more interested in reading when it is rewarding and beneficial to them. Interestingly, children learning a second language find it easier to learn reading compared to those who are learning to read for the first time. This is because young second language (L2) learners have already experienced that reading can be interesting and entertaining. By making reading in a second language interesting, students are likely to be motivated.

Reading as a Key to Success - TEFL Blog
Elizaveta Pachina
Teaching Ideas
A book is an important source of knowledge and "knowledge is power". There is no doubt that reading is beneficial to everyone. Shakespeare said, "Book is the nourishment of the world, life without books, as if the earth without sunshine; wisdom without books, just as birds without winds". Reading builds a good foundation to improve both speaking and writing skills since the more we read the more vocabulary we have available for us to use when we speak or write. This way we could better express our thoughts. Also, the more we read, the broader our knowledge base, and thus the more resources we have when we are dealing with problems. Francis Bacon said, "Reading gives a person with pleasure, give a person with light, give a person with the ability",... [Read more]

How to Help Children Become a Strong Reader - TEFL Blog
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
