Classroom Management for Teaching English to Kids (EFL, ESL)

As teachers, we all want our classes to be filled with happy students learning English. And we know it takes a lot of different skills, like classroom management skills, to make that happen. These keep our classes organized so students know what do and how to succeed so everyone can have a great time in class. And, they're especially important in English as a Foreign/Second Language (EFL/ESL) classes because students have to learn in a language they don't always understand.

Master Classroom Management for Awesome Classes Teaching Kids English

In this course you will:

• learn what children need, how they develop, and how this affects their behavior in class.

• discover how to build great relationships with and among your students.

• identify how to use routines, rules, praise, and behavior management systems so your students know how to get along well in class.

• learn how to design lessons that use movement, fun, creativity, and more to encourage your students to learn and be their best.

• learn how to handle times when students make mistakes and how to help them to do better.

I designed this course to help new and experienced English teachers use positive, practical, and effective techniques so all of their students have a chance to enjoy learning in their classes. For example, you will learn how to structure your lessons to balance your students' energy levels, organize routines to make your lessons flow smoothly, and even give instructions so everyone is on the same page.

However, this is not a entry-level Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) certification course. It does not include sections on topics like how to teach vocabulary, grammar, or skills like reading and writing.

I have also arranged this course so you can watch it in any order you like, so pick and choose the sections that are most interesting to you.

The first two sections after the introduction cover some basic classroom management theory and how to understand our students, including their backgrounds, needs, development, and challenges while they are between the ages of 6 and 11.
Later sections cover practical class issues and techniques for building rapport, using routines, giving praise, using games with movement, and offering powerful opportunities for students to make choices in your lessons. These techniques will work for classes of 5 to 45 students.

In the final section, you will get a step by step guide for how to effectively respond when students misbehave in the classroom. You'll also review three cases of common classroom misbehavior, such as shouting during a game, and use the knowledge you learned during the course to explain why students acted out and what solutions might work best.

By the end of this course, you will have all the tools you need to create a great, well-run class for your students so everyone can successfully learn!
