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!
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...
Thanks Theo for taking the time to share your notes. You are fantastic at explaining what's in your mind. This video was extremely useful for me and I'm about to start the CELTA course in one month. Cheers!
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...'
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.
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?
Im about to do the celta course in thailand in february and this video was super helpful. even though im an experienced tutor it helps to hear what the celta will focus on. thanks!
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.
You are so clear and you are a great teacher..I want you to Know...Thanks for your pieces of advise and let me know if I can contact you in some way. I´m from Argentina and I´m an English Teacher.Thanks..
Theo, thank you very much for video. I've spent more than an hour watching it and taking notes. Your overview is clear and practical; it helped me a great deal with my preparation for CELTA.
You are the best!!! For half an hour I saw much more structured and logical information than I have got for a month of my Celta course (plus already three TPs, which drove me crazy as tutors say everything is wrong but how to do it better - think for yourself!!!) which still lasts)))
Its a GREAT informative video. CELTA classes are more or less the same anywhere in the world. I did my CELTA at Muscat, Oman in 2008 and it was just the same as this one.
.i am extremely happy as have to demo teaching tomorrow using the techniques he taught us that day -two years ago to my fellow teachers of English .i am really realaxed seeing this thanks millions though condemn your video , it gave me an immense help to prepare my lesson .
Thanks Theo you are yourself an excellent teacher and presenter of ideas, thanks! Just about to embark on my CELTA and came across your really good vid.
Thank you so much for this video. I have not only picked up some really interesting ideas and examples for lesson planning but this has also given me a really great insight on what to expect from the CELTA course! Thank you! Great video, highly recommend to anyone teaching or even learning in fact!
Great video! I didn´t plan to watch it all when I saw how long it was :)) but I ended enjoying it a lot. Great way of communicating , very structured, Congratulations! Dana.
Hi. Been teaching in Taiwan for many years and you just gave me some new ideas. Thanks for that and your caring enough to share. Also, my compliments to the interior designer of the place you filmed in. I hope it's your place, because I hope good things for you. If you designed it, you don't need my wishes. Good day, sir.
Having just finished the CELTA course in Belfast, I really wish I had of look at the video..I have recommeded this to my friend who has just started the course in Dubai, thanks Theo!
great video! Although, I will say that I haven't had a student yet who didn't like phonemes. They pick it up exceptionally well and quickly. It helps with their pronunciation immensely!
You're pretty awesome, Thanks for sharing this information. I just started teaching Adults online and your video is the most helpful video I've watched so far.
great videos, you must have gotten a pass A. Just wanted to use that "must have" in order to stay in context. :-) You'd be a great teacher trainer, take the DELTA in a few years and inspire the world.
Thank you so much, Theo. It's exactly what I'm studying now. I'm looking forwards to seeing more helpful and enjoyable videos from you! Have a wonderful day! :)
Im thinking in doing the course, I see this very informatie, thank you... Good information on the techniques: Meaning pronunciation form (MPF) Concept Check Question (CCQ)
.i am from an Asian country ,a non native speaker ,a teacher of English .We were given a trainig by a famous ( they said ) British language teacher as to how to do a lesson -that traing was quite similar to the one you showed
I've been teaching English for 20 years and I find your explanation absolutely original, clear, didactic and fresh!!! Thank you so much for sharing!
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.
No no no ! A picture is worth a thousand words! Don't preach my friend!
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...

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 did my CELTA in 2011 haven’t used it much after a couple of summers teaching. Great refresher! Thanks🙏🏼
Let's say this is one of he most beneficial, informative videos I have watched lately!
THANK YOU! Short, clear explanations. Time passed in the blink of an eye.
If they understand your long story they probably already know the word 'match'
Bloody good point.
exactly what I was thinking
EXACTLY!!!
Why shouldn't he provide us with the good example, then? Though he does everything in a correct way:)
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!

Im about to do the celta course in thailand in february and this video was super helpful. even though im an experienced tutor it helps to hear what the celta will focus on. thanks!
Lovely, informative and comprehensive video. A lot of celta/efl jargon which is to the point. I loved the way you proceeded till the end.
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.
You are so clear and you are a great teacher..I want you to Know...Thanks for your pieces of advise and let me know if I can contact you in some way. I´m from Argentina and I´m an English Teacher.Thanks..
Thanks so much! Out of dozens of videos on ESL teaching this is The best I have ever seen so far!
Much appreciate how you broke it down into small steps. The approach was simple enough to follow. Thank you!
Theo, thank you very much for video. I've spent more than an hour watching it and taking notes. Your overview is clear and practical; it helped me a great deal with my preparation for CELTA.

Great recap for me; it's been several years since I took CELTA. Good job.

Thank you so much. Being a teacher I've realised that I am not able to pay for CELTA.
Theo you are so good. Please make more videos! :)
The match explanation uses much too much teacher talk time don't you think? Why not just hold up an invisible match and strike it, it's quicker.
shantytown It's common to tell an anecdote. Instead, you can elicit.
thank you very clear advice.
what a video!!! thank you so much for uploading this!!! u r talented!!!
Thanks a million for your fantastic explanation, but where is the frame work of productive skills?
.i am from an Asian country ,a non native speaker ,a teacher of English .We were given a trainig by a famous ( they said ) British language teacher as to how to do a lesson -that traing was quite similar to the one you showed
