Hi, sir. Please I need names of animals in categories, wild, domestic, insects... And thier male female babies and home where they live in American accent. Or at least without and accent. Because I looked on TH-cam and all what I find is Indian. I can't het it. Each one give diffrent names like donkey called mule. I really feel sick🤢 I search for days and nothing new. I need them eargently😩
I thought it is only my country that professors can’t teach us how to teach, but now I know many of us around the globe are struggling with the fact that university is all about theories and not about practicing in real situations. Thanks a lot. Keep on the good work.
Thank you Amir! That is exactly how I felt top. I was surprised that no one was sharing ideas and resources on how to be good teachers. In the next year I will do my best to share the best information and ideas to help teachers around the world. Thank you for your support! I really appreciate it. 😃🙏
@@magdalenekatiti6650 Hi. We had. The problem was that the professors wanted to see us applying their favourite theories in our classes, not the applicable ones according to the real situation. In addition, we never had a course for class management, so we had to learn it by experience in only 6 sessions of teaching during internship.
sounds like you were on a terrible program. In my program we were teaching 4 days a week, observing classes multiple times a week and did university in the evening. @@Oscarious
I am an international teaching assistant teaching American college students. I discovered the video when I am looking for tips for international TAs. Though what concerns me is English, It is a huge relief to know that even native English speakers teaching ESL get nervous in their first class. Thank you for the video.
Good luck with your assignment! The fact that you are searching for information to prepare for your job is a sign that you will do well in the future. Thank you for watching!
I had a job interview yesterday at a private school for english language, i did my presentations infront of the manager and other teacher applicants, he said i had a great confidence and eyecontact but i lacked in some other things still got accepted! Now im trying to improve the points i lacked yesterday and train myself at home. Thank you so much for ur advice!
Congratulations on getting the job, Lena! I'm sure you'll make a fantastic teacher because you are currently looking for ways to improve, and not many people do that. Here are 2 videos that I would suggest if you haven't seen them yet. Teacher Confidence: th-cam.com/video/L7QlT4rgxV0/w-d-xo.html Classroom Rules: th-cam.com/video/u_XktSMKaNM/w-d-xo.html Good luck with your classes!
Next week I'll be giving my first class to highschoolers. I'm not a teacher, just a student, and I will teach this class the entire year despite not having or persuing a teaching degree. The school can't find a qualified math teacher so the class is without a teacher atm. It sucks for them being without a math teacher, I know I wouldn't have loved math if it wasn't for my great teacher. I feel like everyone should get great math education, so I want to be the best teacher I can. Thanks for the videos!
@@gplus46 Honestely it has ups and downs (still teaching). It was VERY difficult the first 2-3 months, but luckily the children were all really nice and wanted to learn. I still teach those kids and it is going fairly well still! Im really happy with how it went with them. I was able to inspire many of them to have a deeper interest in maths and the class scores really well compared to other classes. Having a great bond with them really helped. After this group I got another group of kids which was wayyyy harder. They are very difficult to control and they live/love to challange my authority. Honestly that group has sucked out much of the joy I had in teaching. They proved that I still have SO MUCH to learn about many aspects of teaching. I feel like I failed the well behaved kids in this class, by not properly keeping control of the other kids that want to make chaos. I became really strict with all of them, which really ruined our bond over time. Oh well, we live and we learn.
Watching this before the school year. As a fresh English major graduate, I still have so much to learn. Thank you for this channel! I'll watch more videos in the next days.
even though I didn't get the job of an ESL teacher due to age requirement (I've just graduated) my only encouragement now is having found your channel specially in my lack of knowledge of actual classroom practice distant from the abstract theories thank you so much
Thankyouu for ur advice, today is my first day ever teaching in a class of high school student. I need to make sure i wouldnt make any wrong impression to my student, and your tips is helping so much👍
this monday ill take my teaching into another level ill be teaching in a school.. so this video was the 1st recommended please wish me luck.. Cheers from India
Thanks Eric. This is great. Thanks for pointing out that having a fun class is different than being entertainment. This is so helpful. I also like to point out that not making eye contact with students can convey to them that their presence is not important and the teacher doesn't have time to acknowledge them, especially if a student is shy or has low self-esteem.
I'm a Highschool graduate of 2023. I'm currently teaching as a TA, and your tips are AMAZING! I would love to know what tips you have for fun interactive activities, other than the interview and M&M game :D Thank you!!
Hi Mary, I've shared a bunch of activities before, especially many no-prep ones. I created a compilation with 200 Classroom Games. I know it's very long, but there should be a few games in there that you can use. ^^ th-cam.com/video/osyhhILcpZY/w-d-xo.html
Much good stuff here. This video is excellent. I'm a substitute teacher and I will integrate many tips from this video as I'm constantly facing new students.. I like the idea of standing in the middle of class as they walk in and making eye contact and keeping that contact until a student looks away. I like the reciting of rules especially respect everyone around you and be quiet when another person is speaking, then asking students to repeat those rules- I would keep it simple and use those two important rules. I like the idea of saying 3,2,1 then I will expect everybody to be quiet. And the practice interviewing a classmate then having each student introduce that person to the class is a fun idea when I need to fill time. About the eye contact, the John F Kennedy speech class he had at Harvard emphasized the importance of eye contact with a key saying- "don't talk to anything that can't talk back to you". That even if you are scanning a group from person to person dont begin speaking until you make eye contact with somebody.
My series of seminars from you Eric. Thank you so much. I will be observing classes by tomorrow and training this week. And then start my first day as an ALT on May. 😊
Thanks, I'm gonna be teaching my first English class to beginners in a private school. Hope everything goes as i plan. Greetings from Oran - Algeria 🇩🇿

@@Fatima-vp8zo Me too, I'm a bit stressing out right now because I'll start my class by tomorrow. My students are also adults. Good luck to you too my friend 😊
Good luck for your classes! Try using more eye contact, soon you'll get very comfortable with it and notice a massive change in your confidence and teaching. 😄😊
Today I will attend my first class at college as a student... That's why I did search this... 12.09.21 First day at all Educational institutes of Bangladesh 🇧🇩
I am currently handling an ESL class of 5 kids with level 0-1 comprehension. I have already talked to the owner of the school but they would not let me go. I am the third teacher to handle this class and now I understand why. I am at my wits end as they cannot understand the concept of rules as they are both kindergarten aged and not english speakers. Your tips have given me an idea on what to do. Hopefully it will work.
@Juniver Hosenfeld thank you so much 😊 all the credit goes to this video from where i get clues to Involve with childrens and even my self confidence grows
I agree that a teacher is the one who is the leader in class. I also agree that the teacher should be strict. When I was a student, strict teachers were always the ones who gave the most knowledge. Nowadays, a lot of teachers want to be more like a friend to their students and they want them to always have fun. You can be friendly and you can have fun, but I do believe that there must be boudaries between you and the students, and when people learn, it is necessary to have some activities that are not always "fun": reading, grammar, etc. So, it is a balance.
The very next day I m having my class though I m teaching since last 20 years I m a bit nervous I just watched your video and it boost my confidence. Thank u so much for tips.
I have a question, how do we engage different ages into learning styles? Not just one particular class and not just one particular lesson. A curriculum created to create the whole entire class introduction mass. You have great points, but it's so hard to make sure a student is paying attention entirely. Being a student, I always thought I had a hard time being one of the many to pay attention to what I can't pay attention to in class. Thanks for the video lesson this helped a lot.
I finally got a teaching job, and I'm very nervous because I have never taught before. Hopefully, I will be a good teacher. Your video helped a lot. Thank you ❤️
Very interesting video. As a quick question, what would be your advice for designing a 5-6 minute demo self-introduction to a class of young students who don't speak English? I have been working on it for a few days, but it is proving more difficult than I originally thought, as I don't have access to any materials.
Often teacher overthink and overplan lessons... 5 min is very quick. Do a quick intro, ask them some basic questions to show how it is done and ask them to think of questions they want to ask you. If you have time you can let them practice with a partner. Remember, you are the focus, they want to get to know you. So use yourself as the content. For example: Write down 5 facts of yourself on the board. Age, hobby, dislike, favorite food. Ask students what each one means. Then how to ask the question: How old are you? Then ask them to write down their 5 facts. Very easy and it'll eat up your 6 min. Don't worry, focus on the basics and it'll be fine! 😄
Hello there! This is some excellent advice. I was wondering about your pair interviews: Do you repeat the exercise, or do you have, for example, one 4 minute exercise where A interviews B for 2 minutes then B interviewws A for 2 mins, and THEN you have each person talk about their partner in front of the class? Do you ask every student a question; it seems like it'd be easy to run out of questions though.
Usually it takes too long for all the students to present their friend to class. So I let the play rock-paper-scissors to decide. Loser presents, winner asks me a question. I return the favor by asking another question or the same back to him. So you don't have to think of all the questions.
Definitely a good video. I agree with everything you said in the video. Students perform well in the class when rules are explained clearly from the beginning because they know where they stand and where you stand, at least from my experience.
Thanks so much ...We've got something useful for me as a teacher, we know that as a teacher we should mastery all.... Not weak... Should be ready for all activities......always being fun.. enjoy and relax Ok
Hello lol i am Silas and i live in Angola and trynna get a better teacher for my students and as i started watching ya i'mma stand out and i'd like to think ya
I loved it! The next tuesday is gonna be my first experience as university teacher, so i'am a little bit anxious about it. But this video has helped me to opennig a brainstorming in my head.. thank you 😀. Obviously, i'll become mine these 3 rules and put in practices your tips.
Thank you for your tips, this really helped. I am a new teacher and will start in a school in Taipei in two weeks. I am super nervous as I have never taught in a classroom before (only virtually one on one). I will be teaching English and I am scared about some of their questions. Even though I am familiar with the grammar and how to explain things, there is things that I still need to look up or simply just don't know. What do you do when they ask you a question and you don't know the answer? I am scared they will eat me alive with questions and I will have a blank look on my face. HA! :) Thank you!
I get this question a lot. Most teachers are afraid of looking incompetent in front of their students. The best way to deal with it is to say "I'm not so sure about that. Let me look it up to make sure and I'll let you know in the next class." Say it with a smile. Students don't need you to be perfect, but they need you to be a strong leader. Don't worry about what you don't know or can't do. Focus on what value you bring to them, how you can help them and what knowledge you can share. Have fun and be confident!
Hi Manu, how did your class go? Remember that the first week or three is usually the 'honeymoon period' regarding class discipline. Make sure to establish your routine in this time, watch the following tips: th-cam.com/video/rDRB6szqeeo/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/u_XktSMKaNM/w-d-xo.html
The important problem in my perspective is to control my voice ı dont know if there is any videos about it . I just discoverwd this channel. It will be my first experience . I hope it will work✨
These are good tips! Kind of what I had in mind all ready. I will start tomorrow with a class of 9 year olds and it can be hard when they have changed so many teachers to set new rules and routines. I’m a bit nervous because this class has a bad rep on the school for being unruly, but I will try my best to take them into fourth grade next year :)
etacude thank you for the kind words! You really inspired me. The first two days has transpired and it feels like I’ve gained respect in a good way. Not to say there’s no things to work on but it’s awesome to feel respected and listened to while being friendly coming from pupils you know have been a notorious class.
@@etacude thanks Erick! It really helped. I created my first lesson following your steps trying to do my best. The first day went ok! Now let’s work for what comes next 💪🏻
You'll do great! Have fun and believe in yourself. Here's an idea: Take a selfie of yourself before going to school. That way you can always remember it and have it as a memory 😀
Thank you I didn’t do the picture I am out of class now. Things went very well. I love it. I will take me a selfie next time 🙄😱🤓 your video helped me a lot.
@@AOLnotas So happy to hear it! I'm interested in how the rest of your week goes. We have a FB group if you feel comfortable sharing your experience, maybe many people can learn from it. :)
Thank you Daria! ^^ At the end of the year I hope to bring out a super series for teachers. I'm planning to make 100 videos on teaching situations that I hope will be able to help. I know it's far away but I'm super excited about it. Until then stay strong and enjoy being a teacher! 😀
Thanks for sharing. I find these tips useful to me. Also, I have a question: In the "peer interview" activity, you said after your students' introduction, you would ask some follow up questions. What can these question be like? I have trouble making sense of it. I hope you can help me with that. Thanks so much in advance.
Hi Ngãn. So when they introduce themselves I ask them questions. For example if they say their hobby is playing soccer I'll ask them who their favorite team is. If they say they have a brother, ask them what his name is, or when his birthday is. By doing this it shows them that you are the boss in the class and they answer to you. It also trains them to be more responsive in class. Hope this helps. 😄
Thank you very much for sharing your tips. Your video makes me reconsider some areas of my approach, the entertainment part in particular. Greetings from Algeria.
No problem. I'm so happy to meet someone from Algeria. I should learn some more information about teaching there! I'll bring out my new video tomorrow.
@@friendlycreature6375 Thank you for considering me, it's very kind of you! I'm still happy where I am at the moment but I would like to learn more about what it's like teaching in Algeria because I have many subscribers from there. ^^

Thank you for watching! 🙏
I finally got a teaching job, and I'm very nervous because I have never taught before. Hopefully, I will be a good teacher. Your video helped a lot. Thank you ❤️
Congratulations! 🥳
I'm sure you'll be a fine teacher. Do the best for your students and they will love you.
I was so anxious but this just made me feel so much better, like at least now I have a plan.
Thank you so much!
I will have my first class in two days. I'm freaking out
You'll be fine Lailani. Smile and be confident. You can do this! 👍
How was that?
How was it? Hh
What is going on?
It was great! Got good feedback from my manager and guess what? I'm on my 6th class now ❤️
Thank you so much I start on Monday at a primary school. I am typically friendly but I just changed my mindset I feel more confident.
Good luck! I hope it went well! 😊👍
@@etacude thank you it did
Very interesting video. As a quick question, what would be your advice for designing a 5-6 minute demo self-introduction to a class of young students who don't speak English? I have been working on it for a few days, but it is proving more difficult than I originally thought, as I don't have access to any materials.
Often teacher overthink and overplan lessons... 5 min is very quick. Do a quick intro, ask them some basic questions to show how it is done and ask them to think of questions they want to ask you. If you have time you can let them practice with a partner.
Remember, you are the focus, they want to get to know you. So use yourself as the content. For example: Write down 5 facts of yourself on the board. Age, hobby, dislike, favorite food. Ask students what each one means. Then how to ask the question: How old are you? Then ask them to write down their 5 facts. Very easy and it'll eat up your 6 min.
Don't worry, focus on the basics and it'll be fine! 😄
I'm a new teach but am lack of confidence
You are definitely a teacher! Good job!
Thank you so much for your kind words, Dimitra! ☺🙏
I start teaching in august. Teaching a basic acting class! Thank you!!
That sounds exciting, Mikey! 😃 I hope it goes really well! 🙏
I'll have my frist class tomorrow.. this will help.
my first class goes well and pretty good.
Congratulations, I will have my first class next week.
I have never heard earlier about the importance of eye contact. But now I see that in order to be a leader, I need to show it with an eye contact.
It's rare to find such helpful professional videos.
Thanks alot 🪻🍀🪻🍀
Thank you Sir,this Sunday will be my first day of teaching and your video really helped me to be more comfortable , greetings from Algeria ❤️❤️
I'm glad I could help a little. Good luck and have fun! Remember, you are their leader and they look up to you.
Hi, Thank you for this amazing video for my first day tomorrow 😅 by the way you looks so cool 😊 wish me luck for this year. 🙏
Thank you, Neslihan! 😊
Best of luck for tmrw! You can do it! 👍
Hello there! This is some excellent advice. I was wondering about your pair interviews: Do you repeat the exercise, or do you have, for example, one 4 minute exercise where A interviews B for 2 minutes then B interviewws A for 2 mins, and THEN you have each person talk about their partner in front of the class? Do you ask every student a question; it seems like it'd be easy to run out of questions though.
Usually it takes too long for all the students to present their friend to class. So I let the play rock-paper-scissors to decide. Loser presents, winner asks me a question. I return the favor by asking another question or the same back to him. So you don't have to think of all the questions.
This wouldve been interesting to watch as a student, still very interesting as a teacher too.
I applied for pgce secondary school, I have a fear of presenting, I'm hoping this will fix itself. This is a great video though
Good luck Watvid! I wish you all the best. 🙏
Great ideas!
Thank you, Little songs! 😊
Definitely a good video. I agree with everything you said in the video. Students perform well in the class when rules are explained clearly from the beginning because they know where they stand and where you stand, at least from my experience.
I hope the tips help, CS! 😊
Thank you for watching! 🙏
Hi i,m leona

Thank you for your kind comment, Sheldon! I'm really happy if the video is useful for teachers out there. 😊
Thank you for the tips.
I'm happy to share. Thank you for watching, Dante! 👍
I loved it! The next tuesday is gonna be my first experience as university teacher, so i'am a little bit anxious about it. But this video has helped me to opennig a brainstorming in my head.. thank you 😀. Obviously, i'll become mine these 3 rules and put in practices your tips.
Hi Maia! Good luck for Tuesday! Do your best and remember to smile. Let us know how it goes. 😀
@@etacude thank you very much 4 ur best wishes.
@@maiarob3126 hey maam how did it go?
how did it go?
Presenting my first class tomorrow morning,all the good lucks to me
Good luck Asmah Jacob!
Thank you for your tips, this really helped. I am a new teacher and will start in a school in Taipei in two weeks. I am super nervous as I have never taught in a classroom before (only virtually one on one). I will be teaching English and I am scared about some of their questions. Even though I am familiar with the grammar and how to explain things, there is things that I still need to look up or simply just don't know. What do you do when they ask you a question and you don't know the answer? I am scared they will eat me alive with questions and I will have a blank look on my face. HA! :)
Thank you!
I get this question a lot. Most teachers are afraid of looking incompetent in front of their students. The best way to deal with it is to say "I'm not so sure about that. Let me look it up to make sure and I'll let you know in the next class."
Say it with a smile.
Students don't need you to be perfect, but they need you to be a strong leader.
Don't worry about what you don't know or can't do. Focus on what value you bring to them, how you can help them and what knowledge you can share.
Have fun and be confident!
@@etacude Thank you. Yes, you are right, I should feel comfortable saying this. :) I will try!
@@etacude 100% I agree with you about saying "I am not so sure about that, let me look it up to make sure, and I will let you know in the next class"😊
Starting first class tomorrow.. thanks for the heads
Hi Manu, how did your class go? Remember that the first week or three is usually the 'honeymoon period' regarding class discipline. Make sure to establish your routine in this time, watch the following tips: th-cam.com/video/rDRB6szqeeo/w-d-xo.html
th-cam.com/video/u_XktSMKaNM/w-d-xo.html
Your three class room rules are fantastic. Thanks
Thank you, World! I hope it helps with your classes. 🙏
Thank you for sharing your tips.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching! 😊🙏
Tomorrow is my first day as a tr. Trainee , hope everything works out well
Best of luck, Arial! 👍
Thank you teacher this really helped to set my expectations and focus on what is possible for my students.
Sometimes all we need is a little bit of direction. If you know where you are going the students will follow you more easily :)
The important problem in my perspective is to control my voice ı dont know if there is any videos about it . I just discoverwd this channel. It will be my first experience . I hope it will work✨
I'm sure I have a video on voice control somewhere. If not, I will do one in the near future!
These are good tips! Kind of what I had in mind all ready. I will start tomorrow with a class of 9 year olds and it can be hard when they have changed so many teachers to set new rules and routines. I’m a bit nervous because this class has a bad rep on the school for being unruly, but I will try my best to take them into fourth grade next year :)
I believe in you ogdooh! Rather be strict from the start. You need to show strength, so that they can trust you to be their leader. Good luck! 👍
etacude thank you for the kind words! You really inspired me. The first two days has transpired and it feels like I’ve gained respect in a good way. Not to say there’s no things to work on but it’s awesome to feel respected and listened to while being friendly coming from pupils you know have been a notorious class.
@@etacude sir can i talk with you, please sir, give me opportunity , and i am from india, sir pleass give ur skype id or emeil id
Tomorrow is my first day to meet my students thanks you for your advice
You have all the tools Jabulani, just be yourself.
@@etacude thanks
Thank you! I learned a lot! Tomorrow I’ll try your tips 💪🏻
Good luck, Antonio! I hope it helps! 🙏
@@etacude thanks Erick! It really helped. I created my first lesson following your steps trying to do my best. The first day went ok! Now let’s work for what comes next 💪🏻
Good old fashioned advice, thanks.
Thank you this is my very first time in front of my students. I have always been teaching in small bundles :p and or online only. Wish me luck.
You'll do great! Have fun and believe in yourself. Here's an idea: Take a selfie of yourself before going to school. That way you can always remember it and have it as a memory 😀
Thank you I didn’t do the picture I am out of class now. Things went very well. I love it. I will take me a selfie next time 🙄😱🤓 your video helped me a lot.
@@AOLnotas So happy to hear it! I'm interested in how the rest of your week goes. We have a FB group if you feel comfortable sharing your experience, maybe many people can learn from it. :)
Yes please send me the link or name.
@@AOLnotas Here you go: facebook.com/groups/3073290832712042/
I will start next week .. thank u
Good luck with your classes! 👍
Thank you so much. By this video you've taught me more than my university teachers have for three years😂😂
Thank you Daria! ^^ At the end of the year I hope to bring out a super series for teachers. I'm planning to make 100 videos on teaching situations that I hope will be able to help. I know it's far away but I'm super excited about it. Until then stay strong and enjoy being a teacher! 😀
Thank you for your valuable advice.
Happy to share, Fleur! 😊

Thank you for watching, Anush! 😊
My very first lesson is going to start in less than a week. wish me good luck.
I'm gonna be a language trainer
Good luck, Sajjad! 👍 Let us know how it goes.
Thanks for sharing. I find these tips useful to me. Also, I have a question: In the "peer interview" activity, you said after your students' introduction, you would ask some follow up questions. What can these question be like? I have trouble making sense of it. I hope you can help me with that. Thanks so much in advance.
Hi Ngãn. So when they introduce themselves I ask them questions. For example if they say their hobby is playing soccer I'll ask them who their favorite team is. If they say they have a brother, ask them what his name is, or when his birthday is.
By doing this it shows them that you are the boss in the class and they answer to you. It also trains them to be more responsive in class.
Hope this helps. 😄
@@etacude Thanks for your help
Great advice . It is same pretty ,much I do when I teach in university.
im so nervous, I have it next month !!
thankyou for this Sir :) very encouraging and thoughtful of you :)

No problem. I'm so happy to meet someone from Algeria. I should learn some more information about teaching there! I'll bring out my new video tomorrow.

If you're considering to teach in Algeria, i can relate you to some people i know who could have you enrolled in a British School.
@@friendlycreature6375 Thank you for considering me, it's very kind of you! I'm still happy where I am at the moment but I would like to learn more about what it's like teaching in Algeria because I have many subscribers from there. ^^
You're brilliant ❤
Thank you, David. I hope the advice helps
Will have my first class today after they’ve been with another teacher very stressed and excited in the same time. They are teenagers and it’s an online class knowing that they are mostly French natives 🥵
