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.

3 worksheets to use for low level learners or ESL pupils, to practise the correct present and past forms of ‘be’
1: completed colour coded table presenting grammar - blue for present, green for past - with gap fill questions for each pronoun on each side of the table. Pupils do not have to decide if the sentence is present or past as all present are organised below the present grammar table, and all past are below the past grammar table
2: same colour coded grammar table as above, but with missing words: pupils must complete the table with the missing words (am, is, are, was, were), then complete 10 gap fill questions based on the table. Present and past are mixed, and some require the pronoun, some the verb to be completed.
3: 2 quizzes - this sheet should be cut in half so that pupils’ answers are not influenced by the other quiz. It can be used as a starter to check ability, or after the first 2 in order to test new skills
3 files:
1 - Times Tables Square: complete for study
2 - Times Tables Square: with about 30 missing numbers to complete
3 - Times Tables Square: blank, to be completed in full
ESL teen activity for intermediate to upper-intermediate learners. Best combined with pre-teaching of sport vocabulary, particularly places and equipment, and grammar for giving commands
