Children as learners

Amazing video!! Teaching young learners is really a very rewarding task!!
By offering children activities (stirring/settling, mentally engaging/actually ocupying)
which take into account their instincts and skills, teachers will help them to learn another language.
I wish I could ever be able to motivate and engage my students the way this teacher does
and feel proud of their achievements....

Why do I want to be an English teacher?




Brief description of the reasons why I chose to be an English Teacher.

Young children do not come to the language classroom empty-handed. They bring with them an already well-established set of instincts, skills and characteristics which will help them to learn another language. As teachers, we need to identify those to make the most of them.
