I used a variety of teaching materials in my class. I use YOUTUBE videos, Realia, Google, Photographs, hand drawings on whiteboard, etc.
I provide material which will be suited to any individual attending my classes, as I teach English in different methods, although presentation slides are compulsory.
Books, music, flashcards
I teach Business English and each job category has different needs, so I create courses based on the type of career they have. I also cover English business culture, which is the same for all, but the vocabulary, and phrasal verbs and idioms are very different according to their career path. I have vocabulary, idioms, conversations, reading and quizzes and games to move them along and still be interesting. Humor helps.
For children I use course books. We use the students book during the lesson and then they can use their workbook to repeat and do some more exercises. This way they have something physical to look at. ( I guess I'm more old school) Also it gives the student a reason to continue lessons with the teacher!
As a start we do self-introduction and assess your level. We can also have vocabulary building techniques and Assignments. I will also prepare quizzes and quarterly exams. I will also give you Essay topics to write and some Speaking exams
I use different methods and approach based on the students needs. It could be videos, audio, past papers etc.

What kind of method do you use to explain clearly each conditional for students? Do you provide some examples from real life and how you do it? Thank you!
Best answer
The first thing to do when teaching conditionals would be to explain what conditionals are, then provide them with examples, then play a game where they need to identify the conditional, and finally have them create their own to see if they understood it
