Teaching English
Using Video
Harness the educational power of real-world videos in the EFL classroom!
Engaged students contribute and learn more in class, and real-world videos are a great way to spark that engagement. Learn strategies for integrating video into your lessons to expose students to authentic speech, present vocabulary within a visual context, and bring the outside world into the classroom. Use videos as a rich resource for creating grammar, pronunciation, and vocabulary lessons, based on students’ interests.
