Time for Some Online Teaching!

Due to the COVID-19 spread, we will be switching gears and teaching online. C'mon, it might be fun! Good news is, since most of us are visual learners, e-learning and the technology behind it has become a fast growing field in the world of ESL. When learners see and hear words, phrases and sentences through electronic media and educational technology either on their own or projected and viewed in class, processing and retaining language might be easier for them. 
Feeling nervous? Here are helpful tips on how to teach online:

Some recommended links to help make this shift a little easier can be found at ESL MADE EASY. Be sure to look here on this blog under RESOURCES. We will try to update resources / links shared weekly!


Good luck everyone! Be easy...Carolyn, Haleema, and Marcella
