Wonderful video. I believe in the first session, a teacher could teach very few new English words, repeat them in different ways and get learners to repeat the words too in different ways. In the end, the teacher can make the learners feel they actually learnt something, and learning more will be as easy. Creating the f
irst impression.
Thanks so much for your wonderful tips!
Very helpful! Thank you!
Excellent.much appreciate.
Beautiful teacher
Can't wait to see all the other videos!!!! Loved it!
Thanks silvia. I think I'm finally going to be getting the channel up and running this year. 🙂

Hi Clare. I was looking for the blog post about group formation games that you mentioned in your video. I can't see it in the description of the video. Are you able to assist? Many thanks :-)
Hi Claire.. what kind of personal items can be bring in?
Good job i want to be an english teacher
Hi Claire, I'm writing a 180-Hour Higher Certificate in TESOL and I'm referencing various videos within the course for trainees to watch to learn more. Is it OK for me to include a link in my course for TEFL Lemon trainees to learn more about teaching children?
Hi there! Did you end up linking the video? I'm asking because after posting this video I didn't really check my channel and when I did recently I saw that this video has been viewed over 30k times!! I can't work out why. haha! Anyway, sorry for not replying. I'm happy for you to share this or any of my videos. 🙂. And do pop by and say hi on Instagram too. We have a pretty great community there.
Thank you!)

Thank you. Is the link to group formation games still active? cannot find any information on blog other than a brief overview.
Yes. I am looking for that, too.
Thank you for tips 1. Start your lesson outside the classroom is important i think.
I'm so glad you liked that idea. It's been such a small but effective change to my lesson routine.

Thank you for this!! It's been very useful...PS: Aussie or Kiwi?
Australian! But i've been living overseas for half my life now so maybe I'm a little bit of a mix these days. :-)
I'll use them and let you know how it went 😉
So how did it go
What are group formation games and do they work online?
Hi there! They are games that help strengthen the relationship between the members of the group. You can read more about them here: activeenglish.com.br/teaching-tips/bring-fun-friendship-young-learner-classroom/
You'd have to adapt to get this working on line but the idea is the same: finding ways to help children connect and work together towards a common outcome. Hope that helps!
smart
Hello! What do you call yourself in class? Hello my name is Claire or Mrs Venables or Teacher Claire?
Interesting question
I would personally say my first name, so that I can create a deeper bond with my students
I just go by Claire. 🙂
The audio is not too good. Good job.
You're right!! the second part the audio is terrible. I'm so sorry about that. To be honest, I am really really new at recording and editing content for CZcams. Hopefully, I'll get better with practice. 🙂. Feedback is always welcome.
You have beautiful hair.?
