Lucky me!
I found such an interesting website that can provide most of the information and tips that I might need for my future English lessons.
During my practical session last year, I found myself feeling extremelly despair and demented because I couldn’t find my way on how to teach the kids.
I tried searching on the net, buying and borrowing English books to help me prepare the lessons but I tell you, they were so boring because I was not able to be creative enough to bring the kids to enjoy the lessons better. I tried to discuss with friends but I failed to deliver the ideas into my lessons. Thank God for coloured papers and printer (at least, I could print poster-sized diagrams as stimulus).
Then again, I might have been thinking too much because I was more concerned of trying to get the kids to open up to the language (their teacher had made them become so afraid of the language *_*) but because of the limitations and expectations set by my mentor to focus on excelling the upcoming exam, I was unable to give my best to my students. (pity them…T_T) I was fortunate because my easy-going approach was able to make the students connected better to the language and myself. But seriously, I dreaded myself for not being able to give them fun & exciting lessons all the way.
After nearly a year, I stumbled upon this English language resource site and I was a bit disappointed for not being able to discover it during the time that I really needed such a site. Then again, at least I have the opportunity to explore it before I officially being posted to a school that would accept me as their ESL teacher.
So English teachers out there, if you’re so occupied with your tasks and need an extra hand on preparing your lessons, do visit this website :
p/s: like any other resource sites, you can also contribute your own materials and share the love with everyone…
