I like the way she elicit those words from the students. She's conversational and naturally students can easily predict. I like it.

[@neuksd]

In real life, the students aren't going to know the vocabulary you try to elicit or give the correct answer anywhere near 100% of the time like in this video. In reality, trying to elicit all vocabulary this way will take around 10 minutes (upwards of 15 minutes with lower ability students).

[@Gamer_pro913]

true

[@katiezharova2423]

You are right

[@fabriciopaulodefaria6227]

Consider scaffolding strategies! Using visuals, realia, props to trigger the answer!

[@kasudo9]

@@fabriciopaulodefaria6227 You could always do that, and it should work, however it'll take away from the benefits of elicitation as it is employed to drive students to produce the answer with minimal help.

[@hendriaditjandra6418]

Especially during online class. It's really challenging to get answers from students through elicitation. Some students would take this opportunity by playing games or do any other irrelevant stuff.

[@KieranIAm]

A bit late to the party, but this is fantastic. I'm doing an online course so sometimes it's hard to imagine how something like this will actually pan out in a classroom. Thanks a lot!

[@alinaplotnikova]

Couldn't agree more) I've enrolled in a TESOL course and now I'm doing the other online course to help me get through one of the TESOL modules :D That's why I also appreciate videos like this one.

[@DementiaCaregiversCorner]

This was well presented. Choosing the right and interesting topic is magical in eliciting.

[@salwaabdelazim3181]

First of all, thanks for sharing and your efforts, while you have to pay attention to the TTT and echoing as well.

[@anilbally7091]

This lesson was so effectively presented; everything flowed so well, and the topic chosen was something students could relate to. Hats off to the teacher in the video. Great reference material for my TEFL course. Thank you!

[@christopherpugmire2969]

Great one word seamlessly links to the next word as she goes deeper into the topic

[@amandamcnamara7558]

Thanks very much, I found this video very helpful in showing me the correct way to elicit and ccq in a lesson.

[@teacherthays2483]

Excellent! I got it now elicitation questions for vocabulary! Thanks

[@ketijaniashvili8438]

The best elicit technique I've seen so far! I'm also a teacher and it helped me a lot! Thanks so much!

[@usernameBeatles]

These students are not elementary students . In fact , I figured from their accents that these are native English speakers. So it doesn't reflect the real scenario.

[@newallan2022]

That's a good technique when you have at least pre-intermediate students who have some basic knowledge about the topic, If it's an elementary student, you won't get any answers from him no matter how you try to elicit it from him.

[@evangelinemadrid5240]

Very good explanation and eliciting to motivate students ….

[@istanbulilmemabprojeleri5155]

Excellent video for CELTA candidates

[@kanjanahanchan6898]

love your sharing and lesson very good for teacher to know the good eliciting.

[@johnparty3786]

you win :))))) best eliciting ever

[@mariasulaiman7180]

I like the sequence of eliciting. It made sense!

[@hosseinzamani2116]

Tnx... Fruitful technic!

[@SunJay1984]

It seems like a situational lead-in full of eliciting and CCQ's, Keep it up

[@fathimaamouri5953]

thank you a lot teacher

[@manuelariviere324]

A true good guessing game eventually !

[@heidideruyter4086]

very helpful with course

[@2bobaf]

This class is excellent. The students have a very high vocabulary already!

[@robynbremner4007]

I was so impressed! It's so satisfying.

[@ALLDeYHouse]

? its an EFL learning class lol of course they know more they will need to teach in a while

[@davidantony2734]

helpful. than you : )

[@Victorinoff]

Very good.

[@JasonBurnsStuartMcleoud]

It is like playing verbal charades or taboo :)) Pretty good.

[@cheerp7313]

I wonder what the language level of the students is. Judging from their answers, and their accents, they seem to be native speakers.

[@deliajebeleanu4064]

They are teachers or preparing to become teachers. She mentions it at the beginning. :)

[@lafidala.1726]

Only some of them sound like native speakers. I heard at least 3 speakers (2 minutes in) who probably aren't native speakers based on their accents.

[@saadah2664]

Very good

[@sarvinozbadriddinova9633]

Can I ask why was there so much Echoing and Running Commentary?

[@erickadrian4173]

T : what do you call a good looking female? S : Beautifull T : Yes, you are right. S : this female teacher is HOT !!

[@Gamer_pro913]

how we can apply this techniques in early years?

[@hishambadrelgammal8271]

[@kingasaurio3597]

What's some other types of movies. I've noticed this type of error becoming more and more prevalent. I caught myself doing in one day a few years ago, then noticed it every where. The question should be what are some other types of movies.

❤ but it seems TTT takes a half of the presentation, especially it seems this is an advanced class.

[@alexmitzy]

I can't work out where this lovely teacher comes from based on her accent. Any suggestions?

[@jsbart96]

Australian, maybe spent some time in america, or international school. She has some rhotic Rs coming in, but not all Rs.

[@PetrolPatrol]

America.

[@joelsunnex5171]

@@PetrolPatrol I was trying to do this too, her accent migrates all over the place. It's really interesting.

[@peteralfano4278]

that's a lot of teacher talk and she is repeating every answer the students give. Technique is good--convey meaning to elicit the vocab and check understanding...did she practice pronunciation and check parts of speech?

[@mawusinorman5689]

What if the student are not L1

[@tomplays334]

Very helpful, thank you. But is the speaker British or American? 🤣

she totally has Bond girl vibes

[@eyedealizer01]

This teacher is hot.

[@Rod7666]

We all agree with that lol

[@hagarmagdi688]

There's a lot of echoing here. You are not supposed to repeat students' answers. Read about "echoing" and its effect on learners.

[@user-wy2ji4he2l]

What's the point in teaching students what they already know? If you can elicit it from them, they know it. It's good for revision maybe

[@clive7092]

She starts English and becomes American. Why?

[@chuckyspell]

you noticed! great!

[@Oraios999]

I hate when Australians try to sound American, I had a university lecturer just like this. Nevertheless, good presentation!
