1638. Just teaching English

Some teachers teach the grammar of English and facts about the language, and some others teach in English, 

from low levels, 

with realia (real things), 

establishing communication in the target language, 

using cognates (similar words to the ones in their mother tongue), 

speaking massively and letting their students say things in English, 

and correcting them when they speak in L1 (the mother language), 

so in few words, a mixture of communicative and notional classes. 

Remember the goal is for the students to learn and acquire English, not to learn facts from the language. 

This idea is taken from American expert Henry Douglas Brown and from my experience of learning how to teach. / Photo from: numberedpages com
