How to Improve Spoken English?

Who requires spoken English courses?
Most people who have done their schooling from remote corners of the world in some rural areas or have completed their studies with the local language as first paper do not have the basic knowledge in English. They require English when they are at the peak of their career (some people do exorbitantly well in their exams and they find jobs in various multinational companies which are mainly located in the United States).
For them learning English as a spoken language is extremely essential. For students also this language is vital, especially for the students who go abroad and stay there for studying. Some students go aboard after completing their schooling. They need to learn the language very well. But more than it is seen that they are not so well versed in English. Therefore they require the help of the online schools and institutions for getting a fair idea on the language.

What Are the Qualities of a Good Teacher?

The word 'good' can have quite a few interpretations. For the purpose of this blog post, it is assumed that "good" here means "Effective", that is, a teacher can impart his knowledge and whatever other values it is his responsibility to spread to his charges. It is also assumed that the teacher under discussion is one who teaches secondary school and/or junior college.

First of all, a teacher must know his profession thoroughly. He must know his subject for beyond the point he intends to teach. He needs to be an expert in his field. For example, if he is teaching chemistry, he should know all the chemistry-related fields and careers out there. He should also need to be able to relate how Chemistry is related to our everyday life, and not some abstract concepts and theories. The teacher needs to translate those abstract concepts and turn them into interesting things that the students can relate in their everyday life. It is only in this way, he can then make cross references and answer all the questions that arise in the minds of his students.

Motivation is not automatic and many people have to work at developing that motivation. That is why you have to find what motivates you and let that be the vehicle that drives you to success.

Want a Better School Year? - It's About Relationships

Forget curriculum. Forget better classroom management programs. Start looking at how you teach and the relationships you have with your students.

As an Empowered Teacher, you need to balance two things masterfully. You must balance important, meaningful relationships with your students with high expectations for them to do competent work. It is not only possible to have both; it is imperative.

As Dr. William Glasser says, "What people fight or resist is control; not education; not relationships." As an Empowered Teacher, you know the teachers you worked your hardest for were the ones you liked and who held you accountable for stretching and growing.
