I found it tough to teach a primary school kid who has zero english speaking background, the meaning of pronouns, adjectives, verbs and nouns.Originally posted by rainee:yup, most of my students always get confused by those words, then very hard to explain to them that they can be both verb and noun as well

That's the hard part. Some students just don't understand why. You would need a lot of practice to see why.Originally posted by LazerLordz:some words are both verbs and nouns.

you have to be firm to them. Set the ground rules that during lesson time, everyone should speak in English, or else it will pointless learningOriginally posted by rainee:yea, dats y i m oso worried abt my class which is going to start soon...dunno whether the students are proficient in English or not, cos once they see me, they are going to expect me to speak Mandarin to them...

This I agree. Assessment books helps a lot in guiding one on what to teach next.Originally posted by LazerLordz:I found it tough to teach a primary school kid who has zero english speaking background, the meaning of pronouns, adjectives, verbs and nouns.

Sounds a lot like myself. I don't know what the heck is a verb, adverb, noun, adjective, or what have you.Originally posted by LazerLordz:actually most people won't remember exactly what those are, until they have to teach it, or major in English Language.
I follow the rules of English, but I don't even know those rules in the first place. -
yea, but thing is i m worried they wun understand when i speak English to them...then they will go complain to the management saying that they dun understand my teaching...Originally posted by LazerLordz:you have to be firm to them. Set the ground rules that during lesson time, everyone should speak in English, or else it will pointless learning -
yupz you can jsut use the excuse that it would be good for them to be forced to use english so that their english can improve. tell them the fastest way to learna language is to use itOriginally posted by LazerLordz:you have to be firm to them.

When you ask and they reply back in Chinese, you know what to expect already.
It's back to basics for those without English background. Those with English background, it's their proficiency.
