Hello and thanks Andy I'm watching from Izmir , Turkey :) Amazing stuff that you've presented in this video cheers

I have been using zoom, and I’ve been teaching to faceless ghosts(the teens)

[@AndyTheESLGuy]

Haha! Faceless ghosts! 😂 I feel you man! I teach high school aswell but all my online classes have been for younger kids thank God!

[@paulocavalcante9563]

Andy - The ESL Guy Man, I can’t believe I’m saying this... but now I prefer the adults 🤣. My kids are SO SASSY when in online classes! I have no idea why! And the teens... well, spooky 👻. Hugs from Brazil 🇧🇷

[@lizethestefaniadiazroa7755]

@@paulocavalcante9563 Tell me about it!!!. Teenagers are ... difficult. They just don´t cooperate :( ... And kids are on another level, they cooperate TOO MUCH !

[@agnieszkasowinska7136]

I've been saying this all along now - zoom classes are like channeling - "Hello, is there anybody out there? Brad, can you hear us? Can you say something please? Brad? Are you there?" 🤦‍♀️ so funny at first, but then got upsetting and irritating... Not motivating at all - speaking from the "today's a bad day" teacher's perspective 😁

[@AndyTheESLGuy]

Haha sad but true!!

[@StoryToGo]

Love it! These are great for keeping the kids active, engaged, and learning. Thanks for sharing these.

[@AndyTheESLGuy]

Thanks, I'm glad you found them useful! 😁

[@CloselyObservedTeaching]

'Find something' is a good game - and I've also played something like this combined with Kim's Game. Six students find something of the particular colour or whatever, and then you put them in a breakout room (if you're using Zoom) to see how many of the things they saw they can remember.

[@AndyTheESLGuy]

Great take on the game! I'll try it out :-)

[@MemerDad]

Find Something is the best thing EVER !!!!

[@saral2442]

Thank you!! I was sitting here trying to figure out how to engage some of my regular students today and we will be playing "What do I have?" Thank you SO MUCH!!

Nice work. I’ve not yet done online teaching, but most of these work in live classes as well. Thanks for sharing!

[@AndyTheESLGuy]

Thanks!! I have 3 zoom in games on my channel and a Christmas video that's similar. You just play the video and have your students guess in English what they can see. If they don't know the word they can do actions or try and describe it. Hope that helps 😁

hey, I really liked your video..energetic and informative - just the way I like an info video to be...must admit that I watched your vid on x1.5 speed...so that obviously probably played a role too (however when a vid is watchable on higher speeds that generally is a compliment to your pronounciation and presenting skills)

[@drsadmanalam3406]

It's a really fun game. Can you tell me more online game sir

Thank you! A simple warm up you can try is having something like a small ball or coin in one hand. Quickly spin your hands around and then allow the student to guess which hand it's in. I just have them say A or B. If they get it correct you can award points. I'll have new videos on games uploaded soon. You can also check out video on my top 5 warm up games for online teaching.
