Teach English: EFL/ESL Part 4/6

[bktip]

Hi! I stumbled across this video and it has been so helpful already! One question.....I am teaching English to 1st-6th graders in Mexico. I see that this course was specifically designed for Japan, but is it adaptable for other countries? Also, what age group is this for? Thank you!

@bktip Hello, this workshop just happens to be in Japan. Genki English is used all over the world, in other 180 countries. There are lots of teachers using it in Mexico!

Age wise I developed it for primary school years 1 to 5. But many people are having great success with kids as young as two or even high school and adult learners!

Do you have a curriculum for intermediate children???? I love using this program with my 2-5 year olds. My 6-9 year olds demand harder topics. I love your style and want to progress my students further. Do you have any recommendations?

@blackkinu23 There's a new "advanced" section on the Genki English site!

I´m a teacher in Mexico and let me tell you that you are the light of my classes you give me a new reason to be a teacher thank you

the warmup could take a little long if youre teaching a longer lesson.If the warmup taes too long for my students or has too much info they will be more focused on the "game" side of it and not the new material-theyd want to play more and more of the game.please correct me if you think I'm wrong ;Im very open minded-what do you think?

[GenkiJapanNet]

In Genki English the warm up, songs and games are actually where the students learn the new material, so in effect the whole lesson becomes a game. Then after a few weeks the kids think "just a minute, I've been learning stuff here!" even though they didn't know it at the time!
