Upper-Intermediate B2 CELTA Online Lesson | Listening, Decoding, Speaking | Receptive Skills | ESL

Hello there!
Here's another demo lesson for you to watch. The level is upper-intermediate. This is a multilingual class, which means that the learners speak a variety of first languages. We start with a lead-in followed by two listening stages that develop two receptive sub-skills. In between the two listening tasks there is some pre-teaching of blocking language and a bit of decoding work. We finish off with a productive speaking task where the learners decide on one new habit they'd like to try out for 30 days.
The link to the TED talk is here: www.ted.com/ta...
Materials used: English File 3rd edition Advanced SB unit 6A + self-designed productive task
Hope you found this demo lesson useful. Let me know in the comments what you've learnt and do share it with colleagues 🙂

It's so frustrating when you teach a high-level group and students only answer 'yes' or 'no'. Come on guys, you have repertoire, please speak more!!!

[@D.English.Academy]

@@brunosilva3581 haha, well there could be loads of reasons for the simple yes/no answers. They aren’t exactly a regular group, some might be shy/uncomfortable, others might be introverted, some might be waiting for others to reply, some might be those perfectionists that would rather stay quiet than get the answer wrong (especially since they are being recorded), and so on and so forth 🙃

[@matthewhale2531]

The teacher also made great use of closed questions to clarify concepts and instructions, so I wouldn't say it's a bad thing on the students' account.

@@matthewhale2531 thanks for pointing this out 🙂
