    Why Learn Languages? Ideas For Students!

    Why Study A Language? I have been a language student for over 22 years and a language teacher for over 10 years and I often hear the question: ‘why learn languages?’ In this post, you’ll find some background, the benefits of language learning and a free PowerPoint which outlines why people should learn languages! Why Should People Learn Languages? It always impresses me hearing people speaking a language that is not their native tongue.

About

TheIdealTeacher.comJe me présente!

Hi! I’m Sabina – an insanely passionate, qualified French and German teacher and tutor, as well as an experienced EFL teacher. I have over 11 years teaching experience in private, online, secondary and further education settings. I LOVE TEACHING LANGUAGES AND SEEING MY STUDENTS’ CONFIDENCE IMPROVE!

How do I help my language students and tutees?

* assess their current strengths and weaknesses and personalise each lesson to their needs
* develop students’ confidence from the first lesson
* improve exam skills
* develop communication skills (speaking, listening & translation)
* build vocabulary and grammar knowledge in a simple way
* … and whatever else they want to work on!

Who do I teach?

* Beginner to advanced EFL and ESL students
* Business English students
* KS3, and GCSE French students
* KS3, GCSE, Pre-U and A-Level German
* Home-educated students learning French & German
* Distance learning French & German language learners
* Beginner French and German students looking to make fast progress

Which qualifications do I help with?

* French GCSE & French iGCSE (AQA, Edexcel, Pearson, Eduqas, OCR, WJEC & CIE)
* German GCSE & German iGCSE (AQA, Edexcel, Pearson, Eduqas, OCR, WJEC & CIE)
* A-Level German (AQA & WJEC) / Pre-U German
* CEFR Levels A1-C2

As well as teaching languages, I love creating French and German KS3, GCSE, Pre-U and A-Level resources and sharing teaching ideas to save other MFL and language teachers time.

p.s. I would just like to clarify that ‘TheIdealTeacher’ is simply the website’s name and it’s what I aspire to be and what I am working towards. I am an enthusiastic modern languages teacher with the sole aim of improving my students’ language  acquisition with innovative teaching methods to promote progress and improve confidence quickly.

WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE TEAMS TRICK?

Tried this one shared on Facebook and it worked well!

Instead of getting students to write their answers in the chat box, I wrote choices and they had to like the one they thought was right.

A German Army officer used shoe shine and makeup to pose as a refugee in 2017. The ruse, prosecutors say, was part of a far-right plot. The officer says he was trying to expose flaws in the asylum system. His case mirrors the story of Germany itself. https://nyti.ms/2WUV57y
