Hi everybody, I will start teaching English to an adult, absolut beginner student who wants to learn it for travelling. Which approaches, methods and techniques do you use in Survival English lessons? How do you apply them in one-to-one classes effectively? I hope you can help me! Thank you very much in advance

oook! Sorry, finally I broke the rules...
What I said was that he(she has to create the situation I mean: you are for example a taxi driver, and your classmate is the client ...first you have to give them the basic vocabulary and then when they know more or less that vocabulary, you create that situations ..in a restaurant, in an airport...
SORRY for talking in spanish! I am gonna remove my post :S

I teach vocabulary first, using flash cards, internet (google images), games, drills, brainstorming, etc I use TPR, for example, pick up the shirt, point to the fork, etc. Next, I use dialogues, role plays, boardgames, erasing the sentence, etc Anyway, since it �s a very broad topic, pls feel free to contact me for further questions.

I think bogglesworld had something interesting for this. Im sure you will find a book on englishtips.org too.
I do - the verb to be I am Joe Bloggs. I am from Vigo in Spain. My phone number is 22132212. numbers, dates, countries, nationalities, presenting colleagues, time, transport, easy emails eg arranging a meeting
I have posted some beginners worksheets which I have used in business one-to-one.
Most important - get you student speak�ng in the classes, he or she can do exercises at home.
