Whatever their first language is, there are many different ways to help students along their journey to learning English. As ESL teachers, using media in the classroom is an excellent way to keep students interested in learning. On this website, I've covered some basic TESL methods, as well as different tools that can be used to facilitate the process of learning and teaching English as a second language. In addition, I've spoken about potential drawbacks that can occur in each scenario and how they can be overcome so that the class is still as effective. Since I aspire to become an elementary school teacher, I've focused more on elementary ideas, however, each idea can be modified to suit any level of English class. Enjoy!
