OVER 25 YEARS OF TEACHING With inspiration comes motivation. From motivation springs action. I’d like to inspire you on your way. I’m extremely passionate about teaching English. I use visual cards, placards. For instance, the other day we studied personalities and we made a map of characters from ‘Five Feet Apart’ which is a new movie based on a book and teenagers enjoyed it a lot! So we made a visual picture similar to one on the cover of the book and put there all new personalities together with main characters from the film. Regarding teaching children, I know many English songs and rhymes, which we learn by heart to better remember vocabulary and understand English grammar. https://www.youtube.com/playlist
