English Grammar - Future Simple - Teaching Ideas - Teach English Certification

 

The future simple tense can be used for threats, promises and predictions. In this video we look at a teaching idea for the predictions usage. In pairs students are given a card with some prompts and responses. One student reads the prompt and the other responds with the given comment and their own sentence in the future simple tense. For example: Student 1: I've lost my shoe. Student 2: Don't worry. It'll turn up somewhere. For anyone wanting to teach English certification is the best route to take. An online TEFL course from ITTT will equip you with the skills needed to be successful in the classroom. Not only will it cover tenses such as the future simple featured in this video but it will also cover other grammar points such as modal verbs, reported speech etc. and teaching methodologies, classroom management and more.


Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching. This convenient, highly structured design means that you can quickly get to grips with each section before moving onto the next.

As business English teaching is applied to more specific situations, this course helped to provide clarity on tailoring lesson plans and material to suit these specific needs. It was especially helpful in providing guidance and recommended (safe) resources for myself as a teacher as there can be an overwhelming amount of options on the internet. These tips will help me as a teacher.This lesson broke down skills that most educated people take for granted. Reading and listening critically is a skill to hone. This unit also made me think about how difficult it might be (and essential) to tell whether or not a class of ESL students are really comprehending the material I will teach. Trial and error will be necessary to determine comprehension levels and interests.
