    thanks a million for people like you.. who share their hard earned knowledge for free... this video has changed my concept and way of teaching... I have been searching for such videos for such a long, long time.. God bless you Theo...

    Fantastic video. You solved my confusion about MFP. Before I thought that meaning is just the literal meaning of the grammar or the word; however, after watching your video, I know that meaning, in this case, stands for context. Thank you very much mister. Good job!

    Your lesson was WAY more clear than how I learned in my CELTA course.

    It's incredibly nice and practical. It's a very effective summary of what one needs to know as an English teacher.

    James Cannon's Q is right!
    I remember trying to teach the word 'candle' to an 'all Arab Students Class'. Just I as began to draw it on the board one student started singing "Happy B'day to you...'

    If they understand your long story they probably already know the word 'match'

      Why shouldn't he provide us with the good example, then? Though he does everything in a correct way:)

    • @danielgerber7422
      @danielgerber7422 7 років тому +5

      I haven't done the course yet but I think this is one of the big things they look for--to always make sure you explain a word in terms of simpler words!
      Even "candle" is probably a bit suspect. Wouldn't most books have a picture?

    Dear Theo, I'd really like to thank you for having posted such an extremely helpful video, as it is filled with great ideas about both teaching and learning English. As a non-native speaker of English, I also thank you for helping us improve our listening skill. May you and everyone everywhere have a lot of peace, joy and harmony. And yes, we're all looking forward to your new posts.
    Thank you very much, indeed. Muito obrigada.

    Really liked your descriptions of the various CELTA techniques. On my last week of the course and it is a nice, succinct summary of the masses of material one has to plough through in just four weeks. I hope you went on to become a trainer as you seem to know your stuff.
