Different Learners Require Different Techniques


I came across a really neat site that offers suggestions for how we can use different resources and different topics to teach English. For example, a student might struggle with English, but loves drama. There is an entire page dedicated to how a teacher might tailor an English assignment so that it centers on some aspect of drama.

This site includes everything from lesson plans to PowerPoint presentations to sample assignments.

It is actually developed by the Education Bureau of Hong Kong, so most of the grammar examples/lesson are geared toward learning English as a second language. However, the lessons themselves are easily tailored. I think this site is valuable for any teacher looking for ways to present material in a new, interesting way that will benefit and excite the students.
