Module 3
Classroom Management & Student Levels
Classroom management:
Four important tools:
- Giving Instructions: Learn how to give clear instructions - even the most interesting, well thought out activity will flop if students don’t know what they are supposed to be doing.
- Using the board: Learn when to use the board and how to use it effectively. For example, drawing a picture on the board is a good way to present a new word.
- Increasing interaction between students: Learn methods to encourage students to work together. For example, putting students into pairs and small groups maximises conversation time.
- Arranging seats: A dynamic tool in the classroom. For example, encourage students by putting them in groups for project work or a horseshoe for class debates or presentations.
Student Levels:
You will be introduced to what students may be expected to achieve at different levels. So, if you are faced with a “lower/pre-intermediate” class you will know that they can communicate with partial success, are able to use basic grammar structures and are still rapidly learning new vocabulary.

Five tasks submitted automatically to tutor and returned to you marked within 24 hours (Monday to Friday):
