How To Teach English as a Second Language To Children Peter Legrove

LEARN TO TEACH KIDS ESLTeaching kids is the way to go if you want to teach and travel. They are a ton of fun and they keep you fit. All this running around singing and dancing keeps you in trim. Anyway this little book will give you the basics' After going through the book, getting a few flashcards and a couple of props, like toys or puppets together you should be able to go into a classroom and teach a class like a pro, at least that is what anyone watching would think. There is nothing in the book about teaching theory, the book is only about doing it.

This book is about what worked for me. Now I am not saying it'll work for you, but try it out and see what happens. There is also links to the internet. I claim the internet is the greatest teacher of all, but you have to search to find the juicy bits. Then you have to try them out and see if they work for you. Now a bit about me. I've been teaching for years now in a number of different countries. Started off teaching adults, now I just teach kids. A ton of fun and you can do a lot more in class. I ended up with a Graduate Diploma in Teaching and Learning with a major in ESL. Never needed it to get a job, young learners teachers are in demand.
