I am a long time ESL teacher and KS2/KS3 tutor. I create professional handouts and activities which do not require any alteration, simply print and copy. I make my resources user-friendly, meaning they are easy for pupils to understand, effective at teaching the target skill and entertaining for pupils to use. Where colour is used, the worksheets generally can successfully be printed in black and white unless otherwise stated.

Beginner ESL / EFL Past Simple Yes/No Questions & Short Sentences - Speaking Game

Beginner ESL / EFL Past Simple Yes/No Questions & Short Sentences - Speaking Game

(0)
Speaking practice for young learners of English at the A1-A2 level. I could also be used for extra revision for young B1 pupils. It’s a guessing game for pupils to practice proper formation using past simple questions (Did you…?) and answers (Yes, I did / No, I didn’t). It can then be followed by a speaking or writing exercise in which the pupils must make full sentences about one person. Game Play: Prepare one game board per pupil. Pre-teach any necessary vocabulary. Remind pupils that in yes/no questions, they do not need to change the verb form. Player A decides who she/he is from the board, and keeps it secret. Player B asks yes/no questions to guess who player A is. To guess the name, pupils should be encouraged to use full question form - ‘Are you [name]?’ rather than simply saying the name (you know, extra practice and all!) Switch roles and repeat. verbs used: eat, drink, laugh, cry, go, look for, see other vocabulary: biscuit/cookie, mushroom, tea, water, beach, forest/wood, key, book, caterpillar, hare **Note: this activity complements vocabulary from Alice in Wonderland. Look at my other resources to find more games and activities part of this same unit on past tenses and Alice in Wonderland.

ESL / EFL Board Game for Teenagers - 0, 1st and 2nd Conditionals

(0)
Fun practice for your ESL/EFL students with an often dreaded grammar point - conditionals! A lot of the vocab utilises topics related to beauty and appearance, amongst other topics. The two board pages are meant to be attached side-by-side. Ideally, print them, then place on a photocopier together and make yourself some A3 sized copies. The sheet of cards are to be printed double-sided and placed upside down near the board. Included are pdf files plus editable docx files, so that you can change some of the discussion topics to suite your group. Game Play: As with a typical board game, students take turns rolling a die and moving around the board. They must talk about the different topics on the board as they land on the spaces. Depending on your class, you may add a more competitive element here - make them time each other to talk for 30 seconds or 1 minute, if they succeed then they get to stay on the square, if they fail then they have to move back 1 space. On ‘NEGOTIATE’ squares, the student takes one of the cards and must follow the instructions. Encourage use of conditionals at this point (if you do my homework, I’ll buy you an ice cream). The first person to reach the end wins.

Beginner/Elementary ESL Present Simple Speaking Chart

Beginner/Elementary ESL Present Simple Speaking Chart

(0)
Help your low level ESL learners talk about their daily routine using a simple and clear speaking chart. By having learners tell each other about their own daily routine and that of others using this chart, they practice proper verb conjugation, learn useful verbs and phrases, and learn prepositions (at the weekend, on Monday, etc.). Use of this sort of speaking chart helps prevent small mistakes from becoming habit early one - repetition of the basics using the correct form can stop bad habits forming. This can be used either in a group with students in pairs or small groups, or in a one-to-one lesson between the student and teacher.
