AuThEntIc ViDeO WeBSiTeS!

   
      Today I am so relaxed and happy cos it is my day off. I slept till 2 pm.Today is also 23 October and a very important day for Turkey.I am celebrating all Turkish people's  23 October Republic day of Turkey .
Well,today I will write about Tefl ,Esl ,Efl video websites.As you know if you teach English as a second language ,your job is more difficult.The students have to be a part of English by watching,listening,speaking ,writing and etc.I think watching and listening is the most important part of it especially if you arent native speaker of English.Yes I always teach English by using English in the classroom but I think thats not enough.They have to listen native English speakers,too. So today I will advise you various esl websites to be used in ESL classrooms.
    Let's start! Here is the first one : http://www.eslvideo.com/  In the website there are Free ESL video quizzes and resources for ESL / EFL students and teachers.

 


Here is the another website http://www.teflclips.com/  An amazing resource for English videos.


Well , here is one of my faves http://www.englishvideo.tv/online/

    These are some nice links Azize! I'd add that finding TV shows they like and using them is great

    I find the Big Bang Theory has some great applications for grammar http://eslcarissa.blogspot.mx/2012/06/great-video-for-if.html for example

    Movies also provide great resources http://eslcarissa.blogspot.mx/2012/07/5-easy-ways-to-teach-with-movies.html and you can use trailers or short films for smaller classes

GET STUDENTS' ATTENTION!

              Students' getting bored in the classes is a very common problem. It may arise  due to the length of the lessons. We can't expect  students to focus on what we teach during the whole lesson.There are some ways to prevent it.     As an A plan, we can divide the lesson into two or more parts. Imagine your lesson takes 40 minutes.You can divide it 20 minute-parts. For instance, in the first part you teach grammar and in the second part, you can get students speak about the topics related with what they have learned in the previous part.     Transitions are also important to attract students' attention. While passing to another topic, you can get them listen to music, play games or just chat .If you think the topic will take the whole lesson, when the students start to distract and get bored, stop teaching ,do something different like watching a funny video.
