ESL Teaching and Learning Tips
I think that the best way to teach children English is to play games with them. A good variety of games can help them learn to speak, read and understand the language.
As it can be hard playing a game with just one student there are a number of things that you can do, such give a limited time for the task using a stopwatch or timer. The student must complete the task before the timer goes off so you add excitement by having a race against the clock. You can also time your student and then see if they can beat their time in the next round.
You can also play too and again there are things you can do to make it a genuine game, rather than one where you either win all the time or pretend to be slow. For example you can give your pupil a head start or make your task harder.
You can find out more about teaching children with games through the site below.
