Teaching English to Children |
||||
| A
few years ago I had a busy and exciting summer. I was preparing for
teaching English to children in Hungary. After
having teaching experience only with adults this was a big challenge
for me. I learnt to
play the flute, different verses, nursery rhymes, songs in English,
clapped the rhythm of songs and tried to find out how to stand
in front of small children and how to introduce a song, a poem, a tale
or whatever, and what is going to happen in the English
lesson of 25-30 minutes. I thought before it would never happen in my
life to teach foreign languages to children. The world of children is a
different world, you have to talk to them in a different way. Therefore
it is a big but very nice challenge to change yourself into a child, or
put it more precisely, it is a big but very nice challenge to reawaken
the child living in us!
The most important argument on the side of early English
teaching at school is that children grow into the language
merely
through their ability to mime the teacher and they develop speech
ability, too, in a period when their speech
organs are very flexible to form the sounds of another language.
