Don't take anything personal.
Mad Libs are a useful tool, but only a certain level of proficiency.
Find teaching material that is interesting to students.
Use travel time to unwind. Read a book or listen to music.
Teachers should speak as little as possible.
Allow students to correct themselves. Only step in if they can't.
Give potential students options on the price of classes.
If assigned a textbook, use it. But deviate when possible. Mixing things up can (re-)energize a class.
Do your job. Don't get to tied up in your students' success or failure.
Ask the students want they want from the class.
Ask the students how often they hear English in a given day/week.
Give students time to find answers.
Always give students time to reason out WHY they are learning something.
