How to teach English?

I had a neighbour years ago who taught english to an italian lady who didn't speak english, I often wondered how she would do that, I just have no idea how it would be possible when neither speaks the others language...

When I was taking my english course, I always love it when my teacher give us some fun games. That way makes me remember all the new vocabulary I've learn.. So My suggestion is, give more fun games related to the lesson..
Good Luck Teacher...

mybe you are a english teacher in china. i could say, i could understand what you are feeling.
as the first guider of english education, english teachers have signifciant responsibility to give their students a correct impression of english.
in china, i know, even the teacher's pronunciation is not correct, how can they teach their students?
so the best way you teach english is to correct your pronunciation,grammar and thinking style.
then, the approch of your learning english is what you should teach your students.
good luck!

I am not English. I mean English is not my first language. But I could speak, read and write it well. This is due to my continue practice. I use to write my diary in English. I try to think in English and also practice to speak in English. Vocabulary is the basis of every language. It pays the role of bricks of a building. But a thing which we need is the art of fitting them to form the walls of building. For this purpose grammar plays the important role. If you have vocabulary but you do not know its proper usage, then all of your vocabulary is use less. Practice makes a person perfect. You and every one need practice to. Learn and teach correct English.

Hi

I am an English teacher and I actually teach online, I took a TEFL course last year when I moved away from England and it was the best decision I have made. I never saw myself as being a teacher and now I just love it. As a teacher online it is very difficult but everything is possible. To teach English I would advise you to take a course, I took an online TEFL course because it suited my situation but if you could do in-house training then this would be best. You have so much to teach from grammar, pronunciation to written English, spoken English, Business English and the list goes on. Enjoy it I love teaching non native speakers my first language it is such an acomplishment when someone appreciates what you are teaching them. There are lots of online courses from learning the basics of grammar to successful pronunciation, the only thing the students need is motivation and determination as a teacher you have to also supply this. Good luck and go for it, teaching is a great career x
