TEFL Institute Mini Lesson Challenge That Will Change Your Life (30 DAYS RESULTS)

[@meotjaengi]

Thank you for sharing this video and concept with us! It is to every teacher's benefit to this kind of mini lesson prepared and ready to execute at a moment's notice (and also a version without props). For those who are willing to accept a kind suggestion, when teaching ages 5-6 (truly non-native English speaking) ESL learners, I would humbly suggest replacing "we are going to be ___ing" with "Let's ____!" And as students become familiar with the teacher's classroom English over time (assuming you are teaching them over the course of a semester or year), the teacher may begin to substitute more complicated grammar forms (such as gerunds and verb phrases) once students can be reliably certain (or make a reliable guess) as to what the situation's context already is.

Edit: It is to every teacher's benefit to *have* this kind of mini lesson...😅

facial expression and voice projection are the only difference from the ordinary ... enthusiasm really matter

That mini-lesson only works for natives. How is this applicable in an EFL setting? :))

[@silviasuppo6450]

My thoughts exactly!

CRITICAL REVIEW: Your voice seems to show a low enthusiasm and you're speaking at native speed. This isn't a great example of how to create a demo lesson for lower levels. This could work with levels B2 and above but more verbal enthusiasm would be ideal.

[@furvelvetein2580]

I agree. Its more of the personality, speaking skills and expression she had that makes her demo not lively nor suitable for children of lower years.

[@pippajennings5856]

I disagree. The level of enthusiasm you're suggesting could appear false and over the top for a lot of students. Plus it would be exhausting for any teacher to maintain.
