How to Teach English for Different Learning Styles
You come into class to teach a lesson on the simple present tense, or maybe it’s a vocabulary lesson or conversation practice. You follow your textbook and give great examples to illustrate your points and have plenty of practice worksheets – but no matter what you do there are always two or three students who just don’t get it. What is going wrong? Why aren’t you getting through? The answer may well lie in your students’ learning styles.
Learning styles have been studied for decades and there are several

Online Teaching

When you do a search for online teaching, there are several results that will come up so you need to be a bit specific about what it is you are actually looking for. Such as the fact there are online teaching jobs, and there are online teaching positions, as well as getting an online teaching degree by taking courses on the Internet. This being said online teaching can be pertained too in many aspects when it comes to the Internet.

There are also those online courses where you will find the instructors email addresses on the web site that are posting the assignments; therefore they are doing the online teaching. If this is what your intentions are is to use the Internet to become a teacher through Online teaching classes, be sure you find a good university or college that you can actually get a degree or diploma from without a lot of hassle, otherwise, if you are putting money into the online teaching course, it may not be legitimate. There are ways of finding out if an online teaching program is of course truly an accredited course or not.

There are also online teaching certification programs as well, however remember when you are doing the searches on these subjects, use online teaching as the main part of the search but also use other words as well during your search.

Be sure to check out more than one web site, there just might be another that is going to do better for what you want, than if you simply went with the first thing that showed up and looked to be half way decent enough to go after.

Online teaching has many opportunities on the Internet and it depends on the individual doing the search some examples might include. Becoming a teacher through online courses, or doing online teaching for a college course presented by certain colleges, or obtaining online teaching tools for your classroom as well.

Also I found that many of the teachers of our children are now using the Internet for online teaching abilities such as posting assignments for our children’s class work through local web sites for the school they attend. This is an excellent idea I think. Not only does it allow us, as parents to see the work assignments our children are doing but through the use of online teaching there are sometimes examples of the work the students are to be doing as homework. This is to assist our children with their homework as well.

So, when it comes to online teaching the term is very broad, so when you do a search on online teaching be sure to use those other words also, although the online teaching words in your search will be the most effective.

Online teaching can also include tutoring on the Internet, there are those individuals who have actually started personal web sites for the specific use of online teaching or tutoring to help people learn about a subject or those who need help on their homework, obviously this is mostly for school age children and high school students but it is a form of online teaching as well.

Online Teaching Jobs

By doing a simple search you will come up with so many online teaching jobs it will amaze you and the different universities and colleges offering online teaching jobs or needing these positions filled.

You can also get information about online teaching jobs as well. There are several types of online teaching jobs too. Different areas need different types and so the online teaching jobs keep growing for those who want them.

There are some qualifications that are required as far as online teaching goes however, just what depends on, which college or university you are going through or if it is simply an independent learning facility offering online teaching jobs.

The earnings of online teaching jobs as far as the websites I have seen haven’t listed on any websites so as far as online teaching jobs and what the pay rate is, I really couldn’t say. However, there are definitely positions available and you can email the web sites for more information.

One thing about online teaching jobs in some cases you are allowed to stay home, as long as you keep up with the college curriculum or the course you are teaching online.

Online teaching jobs vary and there are circumstances where the college that actually hires you is in fact in another state, however this can still be done as online teaching jobs usually do not require an interview but a certificate showing you are a teacher and a resume faxed to the college you plan on filling the position for the online teaching job, as well as the online course itself. Although it is better to do online teaching jobs in your area, at colleges near you if they are available, or through those that are affiliated, with a college near you.

Online teaching jobs by next year, probably won’t be quite as a necessity as they are right now, however as of the here and now online teaching jobs are in demand.

Another thing to consider is online teaching jobs that refer to other areas of interest such as real estate and advertising, or online teaching jobs for other things.

For example, there was one web site listed that offered online teaching jobs to be for aerobics instructors after training and with the use of virtual technology.

So, there are in fact many types of online teaching jobs as well. Some colleges offer to teach people to become teachers and then in time, their obligation will stay with the college and they will obtain online teaching jobs after that.

This works in a form of apprentice or internship through the college and affiliated with online teaching jobs as well. In rare cases it may not turn out that way but not very often.

A better way to explain this I suppose as far as some online teaching jobs would be like a trucking company paying the truck driver to learn how to drive a truck and once he or she has passed the course, they agree to work for the company. It is somewhat along the same lines with online teaching jobs with some colleges.

Teaching Classes Online

If you are interested in teaching classes online there are several web sites you can go too and find out more information on the subject. Teaching classes online are available through some colleges and universities as well. One thing about teaching classes online, you are more of a mentor than anything for the simple fact you are on the site, where only the students enrolled into the course or class have access through, if they have questions then as the mentor or teacher teaching classes online, you can help answer the questions or help come up with a solution.

E learning or going through online classes and courses is becoming more popular as more people want to further their education. However with this in mind the idea of those teaching classes online has to increase as well, and as of right now it seems to be at a slower pace than that of those who are enrolling.

Teaching classes online is rewarding, you might not have a literal classroom but you do have students that rely on you either by the assignments they send to you or your teaching classes online skills.

People of all ages are learning different things on the Internet today. Teaching classes online is becoming increasingly more important as more universities and colleges offer incentives for teachers who are interested in teaching classes online. They need the help, keeping up isn’t easy if there aren’t enough teachers to be teaching classes online.

Some colleges only offer certain classes at certain times of the year due to the lack of those teaching classes online, there just doesn’t seem to be enough to meet the high volume of classes online today. But the number is rising to the challenge, and teaching classes online is an adventure. Especially to new teachers starting out.

However, more teachers and instructors are stepping up and taking on teaching classes online, people need to realize this is a new concept for them as well. Checking assignments via email or answering questions, it is something to learn themselves teaching classes online.

Teaching classes online is a growing trade among college and university teachers as well as learning the teaching classes online as well. It is a lot easier to do if you have some idea about everything that goes on with the Internet, such as works, processor and other things teaching classes online might make as an easier task.

Teaching classes online is fun for most teachers, because in a big way they have their freedom as well, its not like having to be in the same room constantly, they check their emails and are in the website forums to answer questions, and teaching classes online is getting to be something more teachers actually want to do, rather than be in college classrooms.

So, the ultimate decision is doing a search if you are interested in teaching classes online and find out more about how you can. There are several search results that will come up providing information from colleges offering teaching classes online jobs.

Teaching English with Stories in the Preschool ESL Classroom
Do you want to start using stories in the preschool ESL classroom but don’t know where to start? There are many super preschool activities for ESL classrooms, including games and songs, but it is also very important to not discount the power of stories.
Children are captivated by stories and can internalise vocabulary and the structure of language while listening to them. Whether you’re reading a classic book, making up a story as you go along or designing a story specifically for a particular lesson, you’ll want to be sure to include stories in

Teaching Grammar with Games in the ESL Classroom
You may remember when you were in school the dreaded grammar lessons of sitting in a desk writing, correcting and rewriting sentences to learn proper grammar usage. Well, while some people may still teach grammar in this method, there is a movement towards teaching grammar with games. Just imagine your class when you announce that it’s time for a grammar lesson and instead of moans and whining, you get smiles and excitement. It is possible and believe it or not, teaching grammar with games will still be as effective, if not more effective, as just teaching them through repetitive writing and rewriting.
Research gives excellent reasons to teach grammar with games
Arif Saricoban and Esen Metin, authors of “Songs, Verse and Games for Teaching Grammar” explain how and why games work for teaching grammar in an ESL classroom. They say, “Games and problem-solving activities…have a purpose beyond the production of correct speech, and are examples of the most preferable communicative activities.” They go on to explain that grammar games help children not only gain knowledge but be able to apply and use that learning.

Additionally, games have the advantage of allowing the students to “practice and internalize vocabulary, grammar and structures extensively.” They can do this through repeated exposure to the target grammar and because students are often more motivated to play games than they are to do deskwork. Plus, during the game, the students are focused on the activity and end up absorbing the grammar subconsciously.

While games are motivating for the students, probably the best reason, according to Saricoban and Metin, to use games is that “the use of such activities both increases the cooperation and competition in the classroom.” Indeed games can be used to add excitement through competition or to create bonding between the students, and between the students and teacher.

Aydan Ersoz, author of “Six Games for the ESL/EFL Classroom” also explains more reasons why games do work for teaching grammar. Learning a language requires constant effort and that can be tiring, but Ersoz outlines two good reasons why games should be included in the classroom:

* Games that are amusing and challenging are highly motivating.
* Games allow meaningful use of the language in context.
The Value of Intrinsic Motivation
The theory of intrinsic motivation may also give some insight as to why teaching grammar through games actually works. Intrinsic motivation refers to the internal factors that encourage us to do something. Most young learners will not internally decide that they want to learn grammar. They don’t yet understand the concepts of why it’s important to know proper grammar, so these external factors won’t affect them much either. Instead, intrinsic motivation can encourage them to play games. If these games are good then they will be learning while they are playing.

Joel Bacha, author of “Play and Affect in Language Learning”, explains how this theory works. Exposure to challenges and stimulation piques the children’s natural curiosity and, in turn, promotes learning through the activity’s required skills. This is because activities that get the students to move around activate their mental capacities and stimulate neural networks, thus promoting learning and retention. Bacha’s article goes on to point out that some studies are even beginning to show that intrinsic motivation can promote long-term language retention.
What kinds of games work best?
When you are looking for games to use in your classroom, don’t just pick something to be a “time filler” that does not have any linguistic purpose. These games may entertain the students, but when you don’t have much time with them each day as it is, you want your game to do double duty to get the most out of the time you spend playing games.

Lin Hong, author of “Using Games in Teaching English to Young Learners”, explains that not all games are going to work to teach the students language skills. If the game is simply for fun and not linked to educational goals it may not be the best use of your time. It is possible to have a fun game that is educationally sound, however. To find out if the game is educationally sound, think about these questions posed by Hong:
• Which skills do the games practice?
• What type of game is it and what is its purpose?
• Does the difficulty level of the game mesh with the students’ ability level?
• Does the game require maximum involvement by the students?
• Do the students like it? Do you like it?

To add to these questions also ask yourself:
• What specific vocabulary or grammar are you introducing or practising with this game?
• Can you keep control of your class and play this game?
• What materials do you need for the game and can you obtain these easily?
• What controls, if any are needed, will you have in place to ensure the children are on track?
• Competition is not always appropriate, and it is not appropriate at all for five year olds and under. Can you play a game for the sake of the game and not in order to define winners and losers? Here are some ways play down competition: Do not keep score all the time, make sure the teams tie, play down any “winning”, praise everyone, play until everyone has finished – the winners are those who finish, not those who finish first, and everyone finishes. Etc.
• Are the rules easy and clear?

Tips for Using Grammar Games in Class Successfully
Organization. The first thing you should do when start teaching a preschool or elementary school ESL class is to figure out how to organize your class. For the younger students you’ll want to change your activities every five to ten minutes because they have shorter attention spans. If you don’t change your activities, they’ll soon start losing interest. As you get towards the higher elementary grades, you can expand the time you spend per activity. The best way to gauge this is to pay attention to your class for the first few days to see what length of time works the best for them. Additionally, try to have everything ready to go before the students enter the classroom. That way you can go from activity to activity with minimal downtime. This is essential as you can lose control of the class if you do not keep them occupied.

Expectations. If you notice that your class is getting noisy or rambunctious, it’s time to change activities. Kids of this age like to be active; in order to balance out the energy levels in the classroom, alternate between active activities and quiet activities.

Be careful how you use activities that require fine motor skills – or more importantly pay attention to your expectations for activities that require fine motor skills. Children in preschool and early elementary are just learning to write in their own languages. This is not the best time to expect them to write in a foreign language as well. As they progress through elementary school, however, you can begin using games and activities that require them to write small amounts.

Variation. You want to make sure your activities appeal to all sorts learning styles, so even when you are using games to teach grammar you’ll want to vary the types of things you expect your students to do. For preschool and early elementary grades, stick to games that use talking, listening, looking and moving. For middle and high elementary, you can continue to use games that use talking, listening, looking and moving and add in some games that use writing and reading.

Going along with this same idea, think about what children learn from the easiest. Television commercials are short and catchy and the most memorable are the ones that are repeated often. Keep these characteristics in mind when you are teaching grammar to your students – incorporate these characteristics into your daily activities.

Respect. To make games work for you and your class, be sure to operate your class with the utmost respect – both to and from students. This includes teaching your students from the very start that you expect respect at all times. This includes giving encouragement and following the rules.

That said, you’ll need to make sure the rules for all of the games are clear and manageable. When possible, explain the rules in the students’ native tongue so that they all know what is expected of them. When there is an environment of respect in the classroom, the students will feel safe enough to participate in the games so that they can get the most educational value out of them.

Towards the end of elementary school, you can start introducing competitive games, but only if the class is respectful and it shouldn’t be the main focus of the game.

Routine. Even if you only have your students for a short time every week, establishing a routine will help the class go smoothly. Children of this age (preschool through elementary school) thrive on routine and if they know what to expect next, they will be more able to participate in what’s going on now. Set up a schedule for the type of activities you’ll be doing at any given time throughout the class whether it is a game, story or song or whatever you want to do. Then, when you are planning your class, plug in the appropriate activities to each section of time. You should also leave a little time at the end of the class period to allow the students to clean up and gather their things as well as time for you to recap the class, praise the students and tell them good-bye.

You can also designate a “sign” to use to signal to the students when it is time to change activities such as clapping or signing a specific song so that they know it’s time to return to the circle, table or desks.

Nurture. Perhaps the most important thing you can do with your students is to nurture them everyday. For each child in your class, find something you like about him or her and be sure to tell him or her. Be encouraging, patient and kind while playing games and participating in activities and they’ll like you as a teacher and a person which will in turn help them get excited about your class and what you have for them to do everyday.

Using games to teach grammar can be both fun and rewarding for you and your students. Just remember to keep them engaged and make sure that you’re games are truly teaching the skill at hand and you’ll soon have a class full of students who get excited about learning grammar!

How to Teach English for Different Learning Styles
You come into class to teach a lesson on the simple present tense, or maybe it’s a vocabulary lesson or conversation practice. You follow your textbook and give great examples to illustrate your points and have plenty of practice worksheets – but no matter what you do there are always two or three students who just don’t get it. What is going wrong? Why aren’t you getting through? The answer may well lie in your students’ learning styles.
Learning styles have been studied for decades and there are several models that have been proposed by various researchers. While the finer distinctions are still debated, most authorities in the field generally agree upon four basic learning styles: auditory learners, visual learners, kinesthetic learners, and tactile learners. There is a great deal of overlap between the kinesthetic and tactile learning styles, and they will be treated together here.
As a teacher, what do learning styles mean for you? First of all, you need to find your main teaching style. Whether you lecture or do role-plays or worksheets, you need to figure out your own style so that you can supplement it to fit your students’ learning styles. Of course, in order to supplement you need materials and activities. You need flexibility and ideally you want to add some fun. That is where English games come in. The variety of games, as well as their integration of different ways of learning makes them the perfect supplements for you your usual teaching style.
Auditory Learners
Students who get a lot out of lectures, verbal explanations, tapes and oral instruction are generally classed as auditory learners. Language games for this type of learner are mainly listening based. They include games that involve repetition, dictation, and listening for clues.
Recitation games – These games are any games that involve students repeating language they have had demonstrated or written down for them. Chinese Whispers, Jazz Chants, and Karaoke Night are good examples of these kinds of games. Karaoke Night is an especially good game in Japan, where most students will be used to the idea of singing for workmates. It’s not unusual to have a student ask you for help with preparing a song in English for a business party.
If you are you teach adults who are more conservative, use a variation of Jazz Chants with a short rhythmic dialog and a metronome, or hand clapping, and emphasize the fluency practice. You might also teach a lesson on the history of jazz in the United States. That kind of lesson works very well in classes where students are studying English as a hobby, or for travel.
Listening games – EFL Students studying English in their own country often express concern that they can understand their teacher but not other native speakers. In the language classroom you can practice listening by using tapes or videos with short dialogs for listening games like Vocabulary Scavenger Hunt, which involves trying to locate the necessary vocabulary words on multiple tapes at different listening stations.
There are also Cloze Passages where the students listen to a prepared tape while reading a transcription and filling in any blanks with words they have just heard, and Jigsaw Listening. Jigsaw listening is also an excellent team building game, as the teams send representatives to different listening stations, and then try to reconstruct the story when all the listeners have returned to the team. These kinds of games also help students learn how to make use of TV and radio broadcasts in English to practice on their own.
Quiz and story building games – Quiz games like Jeopardy, grammar knockout type games and listening memory games are great for auditory learners of any level, since you can go from basic questions like spelling and definitions, to more challenging ones like asking for a word to be used in a sentence, explanation of grammar rules, or cultural trivia.
Another set of games to teach auditory learners are story and sentence building games like Madlibs, either the store bought variety, or homemade, where the students fill in words to make funny and nonsensical stories. These types of games require excellent listening skills as the student keeps track of what will be required in the next turn, plus they usually end with a verbal recap of the finished story or sentence allowing students to check their understanding.
All these games are included in the English Language Games Digital Book for adults with 163 games and activities!
Visual Learners
Visual learners prefer to read silently and make good use of any illustrations that go with the text. They will generally prefer you to teach with written instructions and will benefit from you acting out situations, watching a demonstration or presenting scenarios in videos. If you have a student who seems to retain what they read better than what they hear then that student is a perfect example of someone who prefers visual learning. There are many readily available language games that work with this kind of student, as well as helping non-visual learners make the most of visual cues that can help them with learning and using English.
Board games – There are plenty of commercial board games that can be used in the classroom, but you can also make your own. “Folder games” involve making a game board, often based on commercial boards, and using them to practice grammar, vocabulary, phonics, and spelling. The boards can be laminated onto a manila folder and then the pieces and cards needed for the game stuck in a baggie stapled to the inside. Grammatical Chutes and Ladders, Parts of Speech Path Finding (based on the Candy Land Board), and A Day in the Life (based on the game Life) where students participate in mini-role-plays generated by the roll of the die and scenario cards are all fun to play. The boards should not be decorated in a childish way, since that will turn off your adult students, but they can still be colorful.
Picture games – These games include anything played with pictures as their main starting point. Playing games with picture flashcards, or adapting Jeopardy to use picture prompts is one example. Another one that is a lot of fun with advanced students is picture captioning or comic strip re-writes. If you use comics from different countries, you can get into some very sophisticated discussions about what constitutes humor in different countries. Many students get to a certain level of advanced English, and then plateau. One reason for this is that they have a difficult time taking their English outside of academic or basic survival situations. Studying humor through these visual games can help to bridge that gap.
Reading games – Reading is an essential skill for all students and will work especially well with visual learners. Language games like Reading Treasure Hunts with color-coded pencils, where the students look for particular parts of speech or vocabulary, teaches skimming as well as reviewing grammar and/or vocabulary. Ten Important Sentences with Watermelon, where teams send a representative to put sentences in order, helps with summarizing, working under pressure, and team building. This game has the added bonus of fitting tactile learners as well.

Tactile and Kinesthetic Learners
Tactile and Kinesthetic learners are often the students who just don’t get what you’re trying to teach in a traditional lecture or worksheet based lesson. Kinesthetic learners take in information best when they use their whole bodies to complete practice exercises. Tactile learners are also physical learners, but they are more likely to learn things form model building and hands on instruction.
Interestingly, there was a study done in the late 1980s (Reid, 1987) that found the self-reported preference among English Language Learners for language lessons was Tactile/Kinesthetic by a wide margin. This just goes to show how important it is to try and integrate more physical and experiential elements into our English lessons.
What makes a game kinesthetic or tactile? Look for games that involve whole body responses, or have the students touching and moving things around as part of the game activity. Games with these elements are associating physical activity and touch with specific meanings. They can be divided into three broad groups: Touch Games, Spatial Games, and Craft Games.
Touch Games – The most common games involving touch are those based around having real items inside a bag, so that students have to touch the items and then perform certain tasks. These tasks are what differentiate the level of difficulty. The easiest version simply has students identify the objects that they touch in the bag. This is often a vocabulary game. To make it more difficult, the students have to describe what they are feeling, while the rest of the class tries to guess what it is.
Spatial Games – These games involve rearranging items or people and can be both kinesthetic and tactile. They include traditional games like charades and less traditional games, like Population Punctuation, where all but one person in class has a card with words or punctuation on it and the one person who is ‘it’ tries to arrange the people at the front of the class so that the cards make a correctly punctuated sentence using as many people as possible.
Craft Games – Any game where the students have to actually assemble something, like Lego Negotiations where students have to negotiate with other teams for certain pieces to create their Lego creature according to the directions they’ve been given. This can be done with home made tangrams if you don’t have access to Legos. Map drawing is another good example, and it can also combine elements of auditory learning since the teacher will tell the students what to draw on their map.
Variety Brings Success Language games are the single easiest way to address different learning styles in the classroom. By putting students at ease, and stimulating their senses, you create a wealth of learning opportunities. These opportunities aren’t just for learning language, but also for broadening the students’ learning styles to include those that aren’t the first choice.
Will paying attention to learning styles solve all your classroom problems? No, of course not. But using games to diversify your teaching style will allow you to reach more of your students more effectively than ever before. It will cut down on boredom as it increases student interest, and it will give students essential practice in integrating different learning styles into their own style. Students will be doing more than just expanding their English when they play games. They will be expanding their minds.
