Hi Cesitaluis,
I would love to help you, as would many other people on this site - I am sure - however you will need to be a little more specific about what you want. ESOL is a very broad field of study.
On a general note I would say - teach through play, make it fun, build vocabulary with flashcards and games, and then drag it out of them with more fun games.
If you are interested in an area that is often overlooked by ESOL - try a search on Language Experience. IT is a phenomenal learning tool.

I don�t mean to sound rude, but most of us here have invested 4-5 years of college to learn to be a teacher of children. It sounds like you just think we can come with advice on teaching in a little short notice. I am a firm believer in education - for both teachers and children.
Just as a person wants the best doctor - the same is true about teachers. I have a lot of pride in what I do. I�m sorry if I misunderstood your question. L

Challenge makes perfect concentration among children!!When you ask something you could say "I don�t know if anybody in this class could answer this correctly"
Guess activities are brillant.Sometimes it�s better for children to guess the grammar rule or a meaning of a word.
Both these work well with children and teenagers. |
