From my experience I agree totally about keeping activities short...I am speedy and move on to the next activity as soon as the current one is finished, even if it's 10 minutes to break...good channel thanks....
Well, that's a tough one, considering the age of the students as they can't read or really speak as much as we want. I guess, the key is to lower TTT to at least give them the opportunity to fill it with some kind of language, however basic it may be.
Could you create a point and call it 'working together'? Award them it whenever they achieve something together, make the point value higher than any individual point, so set it to 4 or 5.
excellent insights thanks for sharing your expertise
Thaks for your tips. It´s my first time teching kids! It ir very stressful.
You can do it! With experience you'll be able to deal with it.

Thanks for commenting and I'm glad someone else feels the same about lengths of activities.
GREAT VIDEO! Yeah, I meant to shout that. I've been teaching young learners for more than 12 years and I still found this valuable. Hugs from Brazil
That's really reassuring to read, especially given your experience!
The video was really helpful, thank you so much.
Glad to hear that!
Great tips! All of them work well with teens as well.
Yes, that's a good point. I think a lot of them can be adapted for other age groups.
Excellent tips, and very well presented! I've been teaching for over twenty years and still found useful information here.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Wow! thank you so much for your brilliant tips! They are excellent!
Glad you like them!
Thanks Charlie!
Thank you for watching!!!
Hi Charlie, some really good tips! I'm wondering how one can lower TTT for young learners (ages 4-7) who cannot yet read? Thank you

This video was very helpful 👍
Glad you think so!
Thank you very much.
Welcome 😊
Hi Charlie (: How would you suggest using class dojo with two sisters who take it as an insult when one gets more dojos than the other in a class?

Do the students need to pass everything we teach into their books?
Absolutely not!
but if you are an english teacher but our language is spanish how can we teach speking if my students are biginners no speak english
Don't avoid speaking to them in English. They have to start at some point.
