GET TO KNOW YOUR TEACHER LIZ
===============================================
NAME:- Elizabeth (Liz)
WHERE DO YOU LIVE? - England (UK)
HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOURSELF IN 5 WORDS? - ‘Outwardly innocent, but inwardly knowing’.
WHERE IS THE MOST INTERESTING PLACE YOU'VE TAUGHT? - That would be a one-to-one in a young Italian man’s flat in southern Italy. When he invited me to teach him at his home, I stupidly thought that Mamma would be there cooking the lunch, but no, it was a bachelor pad and no sign of Mamma! I eventually left having learned more about Italian customs than he had learned English!
BEST TEACHING MOMENT? - One of my greatest achievement was when a couple of very naughty teenage Belgian students were sent here to England to learn English. They had been expelled from several schools in their own country and this was their last chance to prove themselves. After a few months of playing around in different levels, and coming close to being expelled again, they eventually ended up in my FCE class. Now they had two chances - respect their teacher and learn something or go back to Belgium. Well, they did go back to Belgium but not before they had passed their FCE! They became my two favourite students of all time. I love a challenge!
HOW MANY STUDENTS HAVE YOU TAUGHT? Over 10 thousand
WHAT'S YOUR MOST EMBARRASSING TEACHER MOMENT? - It happened during a DELTA observed lesson. One of my students happened to suffer from Tourette’s syndrome. Of course, I had no reason to worry, I had mentioned the fact in my lesson plan, and anyway, this student had never caused a problem before. However, today was different. Very different. Upon eliciting the required information from him - not wanting to leave him out - instead of answering the question in his usual fashion, he suddenly exhumed a torrent of swear words from somewhere deep within himself. After this cathartic experience he looked very pleased with himself but, unfortunately, this was not really the answer I was looking for. Everything went quiet, I looked over at the examiner who looked rather shocked. It certainly wasn’t your run-of-the-mill DELTA exam! BUT I passed!

Ma'am, you are facing a vast ocean of viewers, we should create a tall light house for each sailor, your hard work must be rewarded. We can't deny the fact that most of the learners are Latin-American . You may not be posting each day in a week, gap day may be filled with a post initially a photograph to recognise your face, later with landscapes,. A familiar teacher is the favorite teacher.

Thank you Preethy, some very good ideas - watch this space! and take care💚

I agree it's all too beautiful and something rare, solving mysteries for learners, and more people could see it, but the most important it is recorded, so we can keep practicing and share with those who really care about their English. Thank you again.

Hi, Ma'am a lot to study,thanks. Could I suggest something, if a stamp like posts were posted in between days with your sparkling expressive face may imprint you in our mind and a similar colours or borders to catch the presence.

[@EnglishwithLiz]

Hi Preethy. I'm intrigued. Not quite sure what you mean. Could you explain in a different way?😊

[@at19960926]

Hello! Is your accent RP English or any other in the UK? Thanks

[@EnglishwithLiz]

My accent is RP and is considered the British Standard for its clarity. However do not worry too much about accent, the importance is that you learn to speak English clearly. All the variations of English accent across the world is what makes it such a wonderful language 💚

[@youssefsokhona8857]

Hi Liz how are you please I want to know why you add the shaw in the word haven 't I look up in the dictionary but there is no shaw

[@EnglishwithLiz]

Hi Youssef which dictionary are you using? My favourite is Macmillan. You will see the schwa shown in brackets as it depends on how quickly you say it, but IMO for learners it sounds much better to include the schwa, and its easier to say as well. Hope that helps. 👩‍🎓

[@youssefsokhona8857]

Hi thanks for your answer the dictionary is Oxford 10 édition

[@EnglishwithLiz]

@@youssefsokhona8857 Hi Youssef. The Oxford dictionary is a good one and I went online and you are quite right, they do not show the Schwa. I then checked out another 3 good dictionaries and they all show a schwa sound. Who is correct? The answer is everyone, as it is not a strict rule and open to interpretation. I just think it is easier with the schwa sound and the most common pronunciation you will hear.
