From
Shelley Ann Vernon
Dear
Teacher,
Who
learns their native language by first sitting with a textbook reading
out paragraphs?
Children
already know their native language before
learning to read and write it.
A
lot of people who attend language classes and even pass written
language exams can hardly string a sentence together.
I
remember my many language classes (I speak English, French, Spanish and
some German), and most of the time we would sit in class reading text
books and writing assignments. Hardly ANY time was devoted to speaking
the language, and it is the same in many schools today.
Even
though most of my school and university friends passed their exams,
they could hardly speak the language. I could, but that was not down to
my teachers, but to my parents, who sent me on foreign exchanges as a
child. The way things have been set up these last few decades frankly
does not reflect our pupils' needs.
Make learning FUN!
As
teachers how do we better educate our pupils so that they;
 |
think
for themselves |
 |
fly
through their exams |
 |
have
confidence speaking their second language, as well as being able to
read and write in it? |
With
these ideas for teaching English games you can transform
your classes and achieve all this because the communication games
are designed to allow everyone plenty of opportunity to practise
speaking, without neglecting spelling, reading
and writing.
In
fact most of the games can also be played to
specifically ENHANCE these skills. There are also spelling
games, writing games and English composition games.
So
if you have come to this page because you are looking for ways to
improve the effectiveness of your teaching and to make your classes
more fun, then you have come to the right place because you can achieve
those worthwhile goals right here.
Stimulate
your
pupils so they look forward to your class
On
this page you will find out:
 |
Why
teaching vocabulary through the use of games works better than
traditional teaching methods |

engaging them in the class at the same time |
 |
How
to create a positive learning environment |
 |
How
to be an even more effective teacher by using ideas for teaching
English games |

Encourage
even those who are always at the bottom of the class |
 |
Motivate
your students more |
 |
Improve
your pupils' grades |
 |
Save
preparation time |
 |
Successfully
handle mixed ability situations in class |
 |
Enjoy
yourself more in class |
Achieve results 2x as fast
But
don't take my word for it, here are testimonials from parents
of some of my old pupils:
|
She
found it valuable right away!
Although
I only bought your book on Monday, and today is Wednesday, I want you
to know how valuable I have found it to be.
I have used a couple of the games in school already and the children
loved them.
Equally
importantly, they were learning and reviewing their
English at the same time. Can I admit that I also enjoyed my lessons
more?
Gila
Goldberg, Jerusalem
The
games are fun and adaptable!
Your
games are such great fun and adaptable for all ages. The kids enjoy
them immensely. They are the perfect fit for my students and my style
of teaching.
Dominique Guihenneuc,
Italy
The
games help with learning
difficulties!
My
daughter Aurore has learning difficulties and since coming to your
classes she has gained in confidence and has improved in all subjects
at school.
Mrs
J. Brown, Canterbury, Kent, UK
|
The
kids love them!
And
from Julie Gambade, age 10, Grenoble, France: (translated
from French)
She
isn't like the other teachers, she teaches us while playing.
It's really fun and you can remember it better.

I
got into teaching after my language degree in French and Spanish, when
I took a TEFL qualification (teaching English as a foreign language)
and taught in language schools and privately for several years. I then
started teaching children and I had over one hundred private
pupils between the ages of 3 and 14 taking music or
French lessons from me in their free time.
As
part of the fun I would put a show on every term for the parents. The
kids loved it and the parents could also see the results their children
were getting.
Now
for parents to pay out and for children to exchange their play time for
lessons voluntarily, you have got to be:
a) making your classes fun
so that the children, want to come and
b)
deliver results
so that the parents keep paying! And that is the real test, which all
these games have passed with flying colours.
And
not only do these games allow you to get great academic results, but
you can positively
affect the lives of the children you
teach by associating fun and encouragement to learning.
A
child who
gets poor grades all the time, and who is always way down the list in
class, will tend to stay there as their self-esteem drops lower and
lower.
I'll
never forget a grateful parent thanking me at the end of two terms and
telling me how her daughter, who had learning difficulties, had gained
so much in confidence since coming to my classes that she had improved across the
board in all subjects at school .
Teaching
is a wonderful profession , and one thing we all know for sure is that
we never forget our teachers, and we vividly remember the few
incredible teachers we had who challenged us and made us think, rather
than spoon fed us so we could be successfully processed through the
exams.
Your
pupils
are going to remember you for the rest of their lives, and
with that in
mind, don’t you want them to remember you as one of the best?
As
a language teacher I believe the greatest gift you can give is the skill and confidence to SPEAK the language
and actually use it. What use is a language qualification to someone if
he or she cannot actually speak it?
How to teach your pupils to
speak English twice as fast...
Here
are some of the problems many teachers have:
 |
Some
of your children may not enjoy being in class |
 |
You
may find it hard to have all your children pay attention |
 |
Your
class may not repeat things back to you enthusiastically |
 |
Some
of your class may not be motivated to learn |
 |
Your
pupils may not get much chance to practise speaking English during
class |
 |
We
need repetition to learn, and to make things stick, but how do you make
this interesting? |
 |
You
may not have time to revise all the vocabulary, themes and grammar that
you have covered as if you spend time revising you fall behind in the
coursework |
 |
You
may feel some of your pupils getting restless during class time, and
losing their focus |
 |
You
may lack time to put that extra boost into your classes having a lot of
paperwork, report writing and marking to do |
Here
is
how these ideas for teaching English games address these problems:
 |
Games
make learning fun so your class and children are willing participants
and not just there because they have to be. |
 |
Students
pay more attention because they are enjoying themselves, so they do
better, they feel better about themselves, and do EVEN better
– it is a vicious circle working in your favour. |
 |
Playing
a game has a purpose to it, an outcome, and in order to play students
have to say things – they have a reason
to communicate
rather than just repeat things back mindlessly. Therefore they want to
know and learn more. |
 |
Games
stimulate and motivate children to new levels.
If they do not pay
attention during the presentation of new language, and make a mental
effort to memorise it, they will not be able to play the games well,
and they will let their team and themselves down, so they make
more effort to join in and learn as much as possible. |
 |
Students
get to use the language all the time during the games |
 |
They
involve a lot of repetition, and repetition
is the mother of skill, it can be BORING, but
thanks to these games it is FUN.
How do you expect your class or
children to remember vocabulary if they never use it? Repetition
is the mother of skill. |
 |
The
games lend themselves perfectly to quick bursts of revision. Using some
of the games you can revise a massive amount of vocabulary and grammar
in a few minutes.
If you use games to revise two or three
topics every
lesson, as well as teach the new language, imagine how well your kids
will do at exam time, and how proud you will feel. |
 |
The
physical movement involved in some of the games also helps keep
everyone stimulated and focused.
Children naturally have a lot of energy and are not good at sitting for
long periods so if you throw in a game with movement from time to time
you will prevent them from getting restless and bored. |
 |
Children
have a short attention span (even more so these days with the style and
pace of the media, and computer games), so
injecting lively varied
games into your classes to practise the language you are teaching will
keep your children alert and enjoying themselves. |
 |
The
philosophy of encouragement incorporated into these games allows all
students, including the less good ones, to gain in confidence.
Usually this doesn't
just mean they get better at your subject, but in all subjects. This
makes everybody, including you, more motivated and optimistic, and you
can really make a difference by helping your pupils have more
self-esteem so they succeed in all areas of life. |
 |
There
are literally hundred of ways of adapting the games so you can cater
for a broad age range (suggested range: age 4 to 12). This gives you an
incredible
battery of learning tools and ultimate flexibility. |
 |
You
can practise almost any language you wish with the vast majority of the
games and adapt them at will to your curriculum and the text books you
are using. You will be able to deliver fun, unpredictable lively
classes that your students will love. |
 |
You
do not need many materials to play these games (in some cases you need
only your regular black board or classroom props). Once you have used
the games once you will need virtually NO
PREPARATION TIME AT ALL!
You will be able to give
stimulating fun classes while keeping your evenings free for yourself
and your own hobbies, family and friends. |
 |
You
can easily control the class by switching to calming games when you
need to calm everyone down or throw in an exciting game when you want
to pick up the pace.
Variety is the key and with over one hundred games
you are spoiled for choice. |
Each
game has either a Calm down, Wake up
or Excitable category to help you do this. In
this way you control the mood to get maximum learning throughout the
session.
Give fun classes and save on
prep. time
I
can promise you that I have thoroughly tried and tested
using games in class, and in my experience it works. But
let’s hear from a few more of my old pupils…to
show you that these ideas for teaching English games really do work:
|
The
children appreciate you!
We
are both missing you a lot. Victoria's French is really
keeping her ahead in school and she is getting As
all the time, and it's helping me as well because lots of
French people come into my class at school! The French people say to
count up to 20 and it is really easy as I can count up to 60! Wish you
were here, love from Hannah and Vicky.
Hannah Watson, Canterbury Kent, UK
The
games help children remember!
Six
months ago, my four year old and my seven year old spent 20
minutes with Shelley using these techniques to learn colours in French;
I was amazed to find that they still remember them all today!
Julie
O’Devlin, Salisbury, UK
|
The
children love you!
And here is a little note I got from one of my 5-year-old pupils.
Heather Smith,
Canterbury, UK
|
 |
Ultimately
it is up to each individual how well they apply themselves,
but you can make a difference, and certainly make
it easier
for them and give them every chance to succeed.
|
In case you are
sceptical, (which is fair), let me tell you what these games are NOT:
Class
time is precious and I understand that you do not want to waste it
playing silly games just to pass the time. Rest assured that these
games do NOT involve:
|
Complex
or copious amounts of materials |
|
Arts
and crafts type activities – they are too time-consuming |
 |
Complicated
rules to learn |
 |
Preparation
time |
What
you WILL find are over one hundred ideas for teaching English games,
and for teaching vocabulary through the use of games, as well as
spelling games, reading games, writing games and above all ORAL
COMMUNICATION games.
These
games are not a 'softy' wishy-washy alternative but
are designed to stretch and test the children constantly, helping them
to reach new levels of performance in an encouraging and stimulating
environment.
This
particular series of games has the following features:
Fun games for
learning English in Detail
Each
game is described in detail and most of them have examples of how they
can be adapted in terms of language, group size and age. The
instructions are clear and easy to understand, and the games are easy
to use, and listed in alphabetical order for convenience. You can start
using them right away in class.
Fun games for
learning English with Tips
Seventeen
practical teaching tips on using the games are included along with an
explanation of the categories, the best group sizes, adapting the games
to different ages and levels, the materials you’ll need, the
pace of the games, the pros and cons of competition in the class, how
to get the most out of mixed abilities and logistics.
This
is all
straight forward and will allow you to ensure maximum results in terms
of learning and enjoyment. It will
save you from making obvious mistakes when using games and put you on
the path to successful lessons.
Fun games for
learning English Quick Start
A
quick start guide is provided explaining which games to use first and
how to
progress through the games to teach specific vocabulary or language.
The best games to use in each of the 6 steps are listed. The six steps
outlined are as follows:
- Introducing
new vocabulary and language
- Continuing
exposure to new language
- Communicating
with the new language
