There's another activity for comparing and contrasting the tenses focusing here in this activity on the present perfect and the present perfect continuous. So in the activity, students will start at the start and roll a die. Perhaps they can roll a 5. They will read 'something you've been learning for a long time'. The appropriate sentence may be 'I've been learning English for a long time.' The next student may go and roll 4. They read 'a beautiful place you've visited.' Then, rather than the present perfect continuous, they would use the present perfect tense: 'I visited Paris.' You can encourage students to even ask follow-up questions, which would also include other tenses: 'What was so beautiful about Paris?' Now, this activity will be particularly good for your more advanced students who are capable of using various tenses accurately. It's also good in the beginning of your course when students perhaps don't know each other very well and they're using this as a way to learn about their past experiences.
Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching. This convenient, highly structured design means that you can quickly get to grips with each section before moving onto the next.
This unit is about reading and listening. Both reading and listening are receptive skills and are equally as important when learning a foreign language. It is important to make sure that students are engaged in the activity. This requires that teachers choose a topic that they feel would be of interest to their students. Given that student may have different interests, it is also important that teachers use a variety of topics throughout the school year.I have learnt some basic concepts of english teaching methods, like grammar translation, Audio-lingualism, task-based learning, silent way and so on. I also have leant several useful and practical games and know that different games have different purposes in english learning, for example, fizz buzz is a good game to teach students maths. what's more, ESA mainly has three stages, but we can also mingle them when it's needed, like Patchwork and Boomerang.
