Note to Teachers: The Pedagogy of Real English

[johnjohn19792]

I can't believe this is all for free. I don't mean this channel, I mean the lessons. Even my "advanced students" had problems with lesson 3. It was a revelation. Now all my students, no matter what level, review a lot of the basics, listening to real people who make no special efforts to be clear. Great stuff.

lessons on real english site are exciting this way. My students love discovering English with real people this way. Please make more lessons! We have almost finished the 50 new lessons.

I do not like exercises and quiz, but this is very different. The quizes on real site make me very curious. Good learning way!

That's a very interesting way of doing educational videos. MY school has asked me to do some and I might use a format similiar to this. My problem is a lack of actors or native speakers to do the roles.

Hi Prototype87,

Someplace near you in Korea (maybe Seoul exclusively), there is probably a community of N. American or British students or business people. They're not so hard to find.

In my case, it's actually easy. I'm Amercian and live in the south of France. If I need video and can not travel to Great Britain or the States, I go to the University quarter of Aix-en-Provence to interview American students, and in the summer, we interview English-speaking tourists there of all nationalities.
