The Past Tenses - Past Perfect - Teaching Ideas

 

This video is part of our series on the past tenses in English. In this video, we take a look at the past perfect tense and suitable teaching ideas for this tense. We'll ask our students to describe what a person in a picture had just done before the photo was taken.


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.

Testing is an important part of all English courses and must be included in all lesson plans, including the possibility of the student´s need or desire to take an external exam at the end of the course. The type of testing should be applied to the situation that is presented such as leveling the student or allowing the teacher or the student to see the progress achieved.This unit was very helpful with starting to learn the basics of knowing the qualities of a good teacher as well as a good learner. I felt that there were many examples that were provided both in the book and in the video that I can learn from. Not only did it teach me what qualities I should portray as a teacher but as well as how effective I should be when giving a lesson.
