HARD...???

Welcome English teachers, welcome English teaching Class,

English teaching to reach well English always faces obstacles ...One of the ways to get over it is by joining http://wel-english.blogspot.com
Yes....but then....what about the problem of "reading laziness"?

Is that so hard to ask students to read?
Is that so hard , even harder? to tell them to write?


I really dream of this--when Indonesia will get better....
Will we make it....while it is really hard to let the youth motivated and responsible towards their own needs and lives?

So, English teaching will not only end as an English class which teaches English, but also teach about life, for our life...

START from the students!

Welcome English teachers, welcome English teaching Class,
Sometimes, teachers do not know what to do, when the students do not give positive response to the class. It is so hard...
There should be some reasons...
One of them (although it does not mean the only one) is....
They need to be listened to...
So...(sometimes, not always, I guess),
we'd better start from what they need, who they are, what they are, what they are longing for, ...hhhmmm...so many?!?!?! Don't you think...you'll always have so many things to start with (it seems not so hard anymore?)....which are wanted by the students, every single day...in any lessons..

Just try it , and you'll find the answer...as well as the "problems" which (I believe) will make us (teachers) better, wiser, and stronger...

CIA (Comparison In Action)

Welcome Degrees of Comparison,

What kind of activity is it?

The idea is ....I'd like to help the students to apply degrees of comparison, especially when we need to use adverb of manner. As we know, adverb of manner includes verbs, and verbs will be more easily understood or imagined when they are acted out.....

So, the good points of the activity are:

1. students get "real experience" in "comparing" how certain actions/daily or common activities are carried out....such as: run more quickly, study harder, swim better

2. helping the students to be (more) expressive, self confident

3. "act out" games are always interesting. It was so FUN to see how students/classmates acted out!!! We've got some students who are talented in acting! Wow!!

4. More laughter in the air! So cool......Check the pics out!
