Warming Up. (Part 1 of 6)
Beginners EFL ESL Genki English workshop for teaching English in 190+ countries around the world. 🇹🇿🇨🇾🇮🇳🇸🇰🇮🇹🇪🇸🇰🇭🇰🇷🇻🇳🇹🇭🇺🇦🇫🇷 ....
Although this workshop is focussed on kids just about all the techniques work with beginner, false beginner and non-confident speaking adult learners too. Most of these techniques I also used in my TEDx talk!
Here we go through:
Start each lesson off with: Warm Up (genkienglish.net/Warmup.htm)
* Gets the kids genki. Says "This is fun." "This is something different".
* Get the kids to respond quickly to your actions so you can control things if they get too genki.
* Add in extra words each week. ( e.g. sports, musical instruments)
* If you have less than one lesson per week get the kids to repeat what you say.
* Review, review and review like crazy.
* It's not "what you've done in class", it's "what the kids can actually do"

Thank you for this series. You've shared a LOT of really good tips and a good approach for working with kids in an entertaining way. More ESL teachers need to see this.
I came to China to learn the language and get a master's, and a new friend offers me an "easy job teaching English to some kids. You'll make easy money!" The first weeks are a disaster and the parents are unhappy, I can't back out of it because my friend tells me his reputation will be "destroyed." I stumble on this video and I can hear the hallelujah chorus! Thank you, thank you, thank you! I'm by no means experienced with teaching, but this gives me confidence and some fantastic go-to tools for management and learning.
Mr. Richard you have the most incredible and exciting technique I've ever seen. You're amazing! Thank you for sharing those brilliant minutes of class with us.
Great video! I have nearly completed my TEFL course and excited to teach English in the future. I found this so helpful and you inspire me to be confident and fun when I do start teaching.
Hi, Richard! Been a few years since I last watched this video (and even more attending, your seminar in Tokyo) but it's still a gem. Should be mandatory watching for aspiring (and veteran) English teachers. I'm 63 now and I'm still learning....
Greeting from Japan, Hans
I'm studying to be an English teacher in Argentina. Your videos are really helpful! thanks a lot for your contribution!
I AM AN ENGLISH TEACHER FROM CHILE , SOUTH AMERICA......THANKS A LOT BECAUSE I CAN TEACH BETTER WITH YOUR EXCENLLENT ACTIVITIES......YOU ARE THE BEST ENGLISH TEACHER THAT I EVER HAVE KNOWED.....THANKS
This class was fantastic! I Want say that I am Brazilian, and I have studied English around 2 years, but unfortunately I was reproved. But I have an intermediate acknowledge, so I decided share it with teenagers from my Church. The point is, I am trying Learning English and Teach at the same time, and I hope get it. Thank you for this class, I will do my best.
Thak you for the updates, you can´t imagine how much I am suffering trying to get clue how to teach kids.
I loved his teaching method!!!thank you!
God! I'm currently in an ESL course and this is so awesome! When I start having my teaching practices I'm going to use your ideas!! Going to my favs!
It´s refreshing to see you work!
As an owner of the CD 5-pack from Genki, and a JET ALT for more than 4 years, I can attest to just how effective some of these games and songs are in the elementary classroom. The "What's your name" song always goes over well with my younger kids.
Richard - thanks for posting this seminar. :)
Thank you so much! I am going to become a teaching assistant in France and I was at such a loss as to how I was going to engage the children. Brilliant :)
Fantastic teaching display! Your enthusiam and energy are truly admirable. Thanks for uplaoding the video - you inspire me to be a better teacher.
You are great! Thank you so much for sharing your inspiring way of doing it!
How engaging. Uses a great deal of movement to get students attention.
Thanks man this is really useful! I Love that way of doing class for children. Thanks again.
Good teacher. He always is very happy. Thank you. Genki
Brilliant and extremely helpful, thank you! :D
Oh Richard, I have watched many videos about teaching ESL. Some where good and some not so good. Nonetheless, your video is awesome! I enjoyed it and learned so much from it. Many of the videos I watched didn't break down the warm up, review and actual lesson. I can't wait to see part 2-6. However, I am taking it in slowly so it all absorbs. Thank you my friend and please don't stop posting great videos.
lovely high energy, I do like the clapping meter, It looks like a useful tool.
Just brilliant teacher!
I just started my TESL Certification. I hope to be as good as you.
Great warming up and really drawing attention the whole lesson !
You have great tips. Your class must be fun
Wow!!! this is sooooo resourceful i ve been trying to teach english to my kids for ages. Without knowing where to start 😊. Thank you!!!
"fun", "lively" and "full of life" it's a great word!
Be genki,
Richard
This is an amazing lesson!!!! I couldn't find the proper way to teach the kids..... This really helped thank you!
Thank you for these videos =D I'm doing studies to become a teacher and this is really inspiring

Thank you! You're really great!
Thank you so much for sharing. I'm a new ESL teacher who is struggling for a better class management.
Your clip is saving my ass!
Woow thank you so much ..this is the best.
Yes it works great for any age between 2 and 10 or 20 to 80! It's just teenagers where you have to adapt it a bit - see the advanced course on the Genki English site!
I was wondering if I could get some advice. I'm going to start teaching ESL to preschool, kindergarten, first grade, and second grade next month. I'm wondering if there are links to websites that will help teachers like me who will need to be planning and teaching multiple grades on an everyday basis. Also some advice on just how to start the first few days. Do you translate some things? or do you just ignore the blank clueless stares and force yourself to keep going in English only whether they understand you or not? Help!
YOU ARE GREAT , I LIKE SO MUCH AND HELP ME A LOT
Awesome vid, thank you!
wah !i am 29 yr old mom of 2 lil one .. i took addmission for english class ..from 26 january 09 ..and i am afraid i can learn or not..

I love Genki! I have taught kids in Spain using this method and it works brilliantly.
Now I am in the U.S again does Genki have any material to teach Spanish? Let me know. Thanks

Great Video!!!, I'm a Mexican teacher and this is going to be very useful in my classes, thanx :D
I love this video
Really useful. Thanks >>>>
There is very little around that covers both the practical and theory site of things. If you have a look at the Genki English website there is a lot of material that I'm sure you can use!
@MusicalYoshi Usually no, you wouldn't need an English major. Depending on the country you might need an ESL qualification e.g. TESOL, CELTA etc.
Thank you Sir !! : )
@MusicalYoshi I'm a supply ESL teacher in Ontario, Canada. In Canada, you must be certified to teach ESL, and usually you have to have a BA before you can enroll in an ESL program, whether that program is taught by a college or university, or a private college. To teach in Ontario, I had to join TESL Ontario. If I want to go overseas to teach English, I need to be certified by TESOL Canada.
very good I like it
Whoaw your quick with the Japanese! Your like a martial artist of the language! I'm from Yorkshire, I am going to China to teach English in a few months. I have never done anything like this before so I am very nervous! Can anyone give me any tips for some very first lessons to help encourage me and settle my nerves a tad?....
hey that's cool man. Alot of those things we do at my school...ok, I do at my school. I'm the only foeigner. In China as it is. Thanks for the post. Some of that I hadn't tried before and like the idea. Like play the piano and adding small english every so often into some of the basic warm-ups. Genius. Thanks man.
-KID (China)
You are amazing!
I hope that I can use these techniques in my future teaching.
Do you ever do any workshops in Canada?
If it's a good ESL course then maybe. Usually the most useful things with teaching to take are human psychology & business courses, they teach you WHY people do things which is incredibly useful!
It's a tricky one, I talked a bit about it my magazine column:
Ah, just remembered I can't post links here, pop over to the Genki Engish and try doing a search!
this is saving me
Thank you thank you thank you
@GenkiJapanNet Thank you for responding.
I'll look into those! Thanks again!
It's teaching people how to teach. Yes in a normal lesson you would start out speaking their native language e.g. Japanese. Then once they have learnt enough classroom English it gradually becomes more and more English only.
That was really cool
Omg awesome tricks!
Getting a major in English is more about literature, which has little to do with teaching/learning a language. I think getting a degree in Linguistics (the study of language) would make more sense ... but that's just me. :-)
Wonderful
keep going that was great :) i will use your way in the class when i get a job inshallah lol
@premachu3 I'm doing workshops in India this week so there will be a few new videos soon!
I am interested in doing this as a job in the distant future and I have one question:
Would I need to major in English? I don't feel like writing essays on John Donne... but if I need to, then so be it.
I feel very motivated to learn more Japanese and I do like sharing my knowledge. I hope doing ESL would be possible for me!
😍😍😍😍😍😍coool coool u r a marvellous
Although popularised by the Berltiz method that's usually a myth promoted by teachers who don't speak other languages. if you want to teach effectively, and unless you have very, very young students, then you need the children' s native language to listen for meanings and also in the beginning for motivation.
The trick is to then teach as much classroom English as you can so that after a certain amount of time you can move to a more English only environment, but not at the start!
You are fun.
Elena
great video
:D Wow! Really great tips!
You are great
Where can i apply?
Thanks for the reply, When I get my first job at a school in Japan, would you be willing to come in as a guest speaker at any point?
GREAT! wish i had a Japanese teacher like this!
Thanks, it'd be really appreciated, I have hopefully one final question. At the moment I'm taking and finishing japanese in high school and am taking it in university as well, What other courses would you recommend me to take? should I take E.S.L over English or both of them?
-Mark
Sure, just ask them to get in touch!
I had such a hard time trying to get my students interested in my teaching... I worked at two jukus in Tokyo. As inexperienced as I was (being a study abroad student) I always felt uncertain about my teaching style... i really did want them to learn!
One of my bosses wanted me to teach two little boys (age 5) how to read English.. without knowing any English at all! Furthermore.. I wasn't allowed to talk to them in Japanese!
Richard, After High school im planning on geting a post secondary education and getting degrees in teaching and ESL, and I was wondering if you could tell me whether employers in japan, at highschools, elementary schools, etc. would provide an outline of what they wanted to be taught or if the lesson would be decided by personally. Thanks
-Mark
Wow.. a really inspiring teacher.. Thank you..
-adit-
In this workshop about half are from Japan, the rest from US, UK, Australia + quite a few other countries.
beautiful
Nice video, thank you. Myself, I didn't, I have to learn English. I was watching cartoons and movies at early age. Usually, every day one movie, At age of 12 I began to speak as I was making videos for my channel. I still have an accent, but its ok. I saw worse here on CZcams. This way the only thing my parents had to do is to turn on tv and dvd player. Hopefully this experience can be useful for some parents who want their child to speak some language.
uwow, so energetic
Hey Richard!
These Teaching-Video compilations are awesome!
I'm preparing to finish and take my J-Shine license, and I found them very interesting.
I hope someday meet you in person. I live in shizuoka, enter in contact.
bye, greatings!
Bit of both I guess, my job is as a teacher trainer!
