The TEFL Why Oh Why series
I’m thinking of continuing my series of articles based on the conversational strategies of young kids (continually asking why), so have listed the ones so far here to remind myself and get some feedback before I start on the next one:
Why did my foolproof activity just fail with that class?
Why your students overuse their dictionaries
Why your students don’t want to do pairwork
Why your students still make mistakes with grammar they know well
Why do my students question me?
Why your students have problems with listening comprehension
Why your students speak L1 in class
Why your students don’t do their homework
For teachers and students- including good and bad reasons!
Why does our teacher make us learn the phonemic script?
Why doesn’t my teacher correct all my mistakes when I am speaking?
Why does my teacher make us work in pairs?
Why does our teacher make us play games in an adult class?
Why does my teacher make us read difficult authentic texts?
Why does my teacher skip exercises in the textbook?
Why does my teacher make me use an English-English dictionary?
Why does my teacher make me learn English grammar words?
Why does my teacher make me read silently?
