English-Attack! Thailand For Independent Teachers

March 25, 2013

Private English Lessons

Many teachers of English use English Attack! as a resource with their learners during one-to-one or small-group lessons.

The format and currency of the learning units (video-based exercises, games and visual dictionaries) refresh learner motivation with each new session and favor productive teacher-student communication during the lesson.

English Attack! is also highly effective when used with autonomous learners, who can prepare for a given lesson using the resource and then review it afterwords.

Subscription to English Attack! via an Independent Teacher Booster Pass gives you access to exclusive tools for use with your learners in one-to-one or small group lessons.

English Attack! and Private Lessons

Pedagogy tips

A learner can prepare for a lesson by getting familiar with a given topic via a video on the site (for example, a film clip or news item).
Before the lesson, the learner can work through the Video Booster (interactive video exercise) associated with the video and pick up additional vocabulary with a related Photo Vocab (visual dictionary).

During the lesson, you can review the exercises with the learner, focusing on particular points of grammar or vocabulary use that need more work. The video clips can also be a great jumping-off point for conversation practice.

Following the lesson, your learner can consolidate new learned vocabulary by playing the Practice Games for the Video Booster and Photo Vocab used during the lesson.
