Teaching your first one to one English class can be daunting for you and your student and it can be difficult to know what to do first. I have broken this down into 4 clear steps and you can replicate this every time you have a new student.

So I've been casually tutoring in English for some time, but I've never actually taught a beginner or an adult. This video has made this first lesson so much more manageable!
That was my intention, so I'm glad!
Just rewatched this video for my one to one today. Thanks Charlie
I wasn't expecting much but this was very informative! I've been teaching 1 on 1 online for 10 years now and even got some new ideas. Thanks for the video!
I'm glad I surprised you with my content!
Thank you. I'll definitely put this into practice in my first class, when I start getting my students. Thanks for the information. Very helpful and timely.
Can I get your google doc format?

Thank you so much! This video has been very helpful! I've been teaching one to one for a couple of years but it was with my friends mostly so this get to know format was very useful for me personally
Glad it helped!

Thanks!!!!You are great 😊
You're welcome 😊
Thanks a bunch Bro!!
Thanks for watching!
I have nothing to say but a BIG THANK YOU!
Glad I could help! 😇😍
Thanks for this. I've been teaching English for a few different companies for five years now. I'm attempting to go independent and find my own students. I've been doing a few of these things but I really like some of the ideas like with the google forms about the interests. That's really helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
I am only starting my way as a teacher, so i was very confused how to conduct the first lesson. Thank you so much!
Glad it was helpful!
Everything is so clear and useful! I like the way you explain things, you should be a teacher!
I actually am a teacher!!!😂😂😂
@@CharliesLessons No way😆
@@CharliesLessons But seriously, good job! I've been teaching for 5 months and still have a lot of anxiety. Your videos help a lot.
Agree. Looked for many videos on this topic - and this was by far, hands down, THE best. With daylight coming in second.
@@danieltappenglish4424 Thanks for the amazing comment. I really appreciate it.
I was actually looking for something that could steer my boat🤓 I'm glad that I came across your page on LinkedIn and searched your channel on UA-cam 🙏 wonderful video Charlie..please share some lesson plans for different CEFR levels😇
Steer your boat? Random, I like it!!! Thanks for the feedback, I'll take it into account.
@@CharliesLessons will be waiting for the videos on the same😇 I've clicked the bell icon too! Thank you in advance ☺️
Great video. Thank you very much for the info and advice. Any tip on how to scale this template for a shorter class? 30 min or so.
I would probably get the student to do the level test before the class started. I would also remove the initial oral level test section and go straight to introductions.
Thank you so much.
Hello Charlie, could you please link me to the CEFR personal questions. I appreciate your efforts put into these videos 👍🏻
Hello Gino, the link should be in the description of the video. Thanks.
Great content Charlie! Thanks for sharing. Quick question from someone who's trying to optimise their one-to-one classes. What's your approach on filling out the Google Forms? You said you do it in the first class together but do you send your student the questionaire? do you share your screen and you type in their answers? What would your best practice tip be on this?
I think you can do it two ways. Either send it before class or do it with them. I think it's best to do it together because then you can dig a little deeper as to why they have certain interests and more background information.
great advice thanks - can you suggest some ideas for a 10-year-old boy who is A!? I find plenty of ideas for very young kids and groups but nothing for one-to-one complete beginners that are slightly older like 10/11. Thank you
Coming soon!
I have just done an online one to one class following your lesson plan, and it was amazing!! 5 stars. The only thing that was a bit tricky was that the Google forms didnt save his responses, I was clicking on his answers but they didnt show as being chosen. I later realised that you can email them the form before hand, but I really wanted to complete it with the student. Any advice to do this part with them online, so they can see as you choose their answer?
I haven't heard of the options disappearing like that. Perhaps send the form beforehand and then you can go through their answers on the linked Google Sheet?
Hello Charlie, thanks for your great videos. Really helping me building my online English lessons.
I have a question. On the test-english website, there are now 5 levels (A1, A2, B1, B1+ and B2). I can't see the levels (A1, A1, B1, B2, C1, C2) you're talking about.
Seems like things have changed ... Do you know what happened ?
Thank you
I do refer to the levels A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2 but the website has always maintained those levels you mentioned. Just imagine that anything over B2 would be considered a C-level i.e. a C1 or C2. Also, remember that level tests are only guides to get started, you won't truly know the level of the student until you have several classes with them.
This is very helpful! Thanks so much! I'm about to embark on my first teaching assignment and have a question. I will be teaching ESL to a 12-year old girl - 20 hrs in 1 week ie 4 hours a day. I have my reservations about this rather gruelling schedule, but the parents would like her to do this. I have received an audio file to give me an idea of her oral capabilities and should shortly receive some sentences for a short writing test I've set. As this is an intensive course, I won't have time after the 1st lesson to then search online for learning resources etc for the topics she's most interested in. Would you advise asking the parents to send me such a list in advance so that I am able to at least do some prep? And do you have any other suggestions as to how to best prepare and structure the lesson plans? Many thanks in advance! I should add that the lessons are face-to-face (not online)
Can the very first class not be an opportunity to find all these things out? Do this as your first class ua-cam.com/video/kZTIUUx6fH0/v-deo.html
