Talking too much and talking too fast! When I started teaching, I was so excited to be there that I would talk a lot (sometimes talk over the student). I’ve learned how to listen more and talk less as a teacher, so that the student gets the speaking practice they need.

I'm always recommending songs to my students where they use both. For example, if we're reviewing vocabulary words like days of the week (Friday, I'm in Love - The Cure) or grammatical structures like present continuous (Tom's Diner - Suzanne Vega).

Before the lesson start, I take a few minutes to chat or ask them about something they like or something that once made them laugh, so that they can feel relaxed throughout the lesson.
- How do you balance teaching language mechanics with inspiring curiosity and creativity?
Consider instances you would teach pronunciation of words like "The" to someone who would say it like "Lur", or the "R" and "L" dilemma in some scenarios, the inclusion(or lack of rather) of articles where your student deems them to be non existent in the mother tongue and transfers that analogy to speaking English.
- What’s the most fascinating cultural exchange you’ve experienced while teaching English?

The most for me, is that when I teach English to students who speak Native in a Language in which I am an L2 of (bear in mind my L2 are, Spanish, Afrikaans, Greek) We find unique ways to both help one another on certain things we both find difficult from what we know in both our L1 and L2 languages . We are all teachers and learners to one another in the world :)
