Hi Eric! Thank you for all your work. I am in my first year of teaching ESL and I find this very useful. I have some issues with a 8 grade class (15 years old students), they becoming pretty rude and less engaged. Do you have any advice?
Hi Valerica, It sounds like a difficult situation to be in. Your class might not be this bad, but I made a video for how to treat a class that is out of control. I hope it has some good ideas! ua-cam.com/video/o_nvMFrSdGg/v-deo.html
I really love listening to your videos ☺️ Now a new school year is going to start and I am looking for the inspiration for the amazing activities in your videos dear Eric 💞
Hii very interesting vidio bcse next day I attended my first class as a teacher very useful vidio👌Friday I meet a big meeting in teachers really useful thanks
I disagree with your point about greeting students with hugs, high-fives etc. These do not waste time, they foster positive relationships between the students and teachers and can help create a safe atmosphere in the class. If that's wasting time in your opinion, then isn't meditation too?
Post-edit I felt the same way. That I didn't bring up the value it has in building relationships with students. Also, many kids out there really need a hug. So I was too severe and didn't mention these positives, unfortunately it was too late to add them. But, when teachers watch this I want them to be conscious of why they are doing things. I don't want the entrance method just to be used cause they see it on social media, but think about why they would do it. I disagree about meditation being similar to the entrance game. The entrance is good for building relationships and fostering comfort. Meditation is a skill that can be practiced and improved with many benefits to life. Thank you for calling me out on my views! I hope other teachers do the same because it allows me to reflect and reconsider. 😃🙏
Hi Eric Thank you for all your work. can you tell what kind of stories we can tell in our classroom? can you share any resources or give a list of stories that we can tell our students.
Hi Eric, This is so cool... "Please like and subscribe"... I love your videos with all the tips, real examples, sharing your experiences.. You are so cool... I am in the caterpillar stage.. preparing for the butterfly.. then I will sign up for teaching.
Hi! I'm actually working on a couple of videos that incudes "Teaching Young Learners" and "Teaching Phonics". I hope to get them out before the end of the year. 👍
I’m a first year teacher teaching elementary esl and I feel like my personality doesn’t match their age. I’m in a Montessori system with multiple ages in the same class. The students do not like me and I feel like this week it escalated a lot they are avoiding me and work. They say that they don’t like English. They don’t even listen to me anymore .. I’m trying to be a fun teacher and a fun class but it’s not working - is jt too late to get my class back? What to do?
Sorry for the later reply, Hamade. :( Building report with your students is important, it helps if they like you. But it is not necessary. Respect and the fact that they do their work is your ultimate goal. Tell them that their like or dislike of you or English does not matter. They are your students, and as such they are expected to do their best. As a sidenote - You will try to make things fun, but they have to apply effort and do their best. That way they will also learn better. I hope that your past month has been good and things have improved.

Hi
Thanks for this vídeo.
Could you make the same but forma online classes?
Greetings.
Hi, I did a long video on how to teach with Zoom. Maybe it will have some useful ideas. ua-cam.com/video/kBrTtSEP8go/v-deo.html
Hi Eric! Thanks a lot! But your book isn't available to buy
Thanks for letting me know, Aleksandr!
I checked the link and it should be working now. 🙏
Hi Eric, checked on Amazon. Looks like it's not available. But it's on Kindle.
That's strange, Viji. I checked and it seems available. I don't know if it's because of your location. :(
Good explanation
Thank you, Jular! ^^
You are wonderful
Thank you so much, Ward! ☺️
Hi Eric, is this book available in India?
If Amazon is in India, then yes you can order from them.
Thank you so much 💓
Thanx
Hi please can you help me about English..?
I mean practice...?
for me is really difficult to teach young age students😩 they're too noisy. Because of this i don't wanna go to work and idk what to do
That is very difficult. I made this video on Noisy classes that might have some ideas. ua-cam.com/video/51FyDOZVeVU/v-deo.html
@@SAkbar-fb4jv what's the problem?
Same
I really need some help because I’m scared that I lost my class - and I don’t know how to act with them the next class
Sorry to hear that, Harnade. :(
Here is a video I did that might help:
ua-cam.com/video/o_nvMFrSdGg/v-deo.html
I already saw this - but do you think it is still possible to manage? Or is it too late?
I’m a first year teacher teaching elementary esl and I feel like my personality doesn’t match their age. I’m in a Montessori system with multiple ages in the same class. The students do not like me and I feel like this week it escalated a lot they are avoiding me and work. They say that they don’t like English. They don’t even listen to me anymore .. I’m trying to be a fun teacher and a fun class but it’s not working - is jt too late to get my class back? What to do?

It does make it a bit more uncomfortable, but unfortunately didn't have a choice. 😃
