How many people are we going to teach?
Where and when will the class take place? During the day or at night?
Does the facility have tables, chairs, chalkboard, bathrooms, electricity?
What kind of English class will this be? Tourism? Conversational?
Why do these students need, or even want, to learn English?
How will we advertise? A flyer? Word of mouth?
Do we need to pay to use the facility or the electricity?
How long will each class be? An hour? Hour and a half?
How long will the course run? A couple months? Our entire service?While you look over these lesson plans, review sheets and digital resources, it’s important to keep in mind that these were developed based on our community’s needs. The order in which we taught the lessons was determined by many factors: what our students struggled with, a question in a previous class, or sometimes an upcoming event. The lessons included in this manual and the order in which they are arranged are merely suggestions. We highly encourage you to adapt these lessons to fit your students’ needs. Good luck!
