    As I have had experience teaching pre-school kids and later elementary level children, I will follow the age level syllabus. Example for beginners, it will be phonics, action songs, flash cards and numbers. They can start writing by tracing the alphabets and three-letter words before they move on to writing. Short stories such as 'the fox and the hound'. 'three little pigs' will teach them words and how to pronounce them. For the older children, they can have grammar lessons, stories, quizzes, riddles, comprehension passages and videos like "Tom Sawyer' or Oliver Twist will give them some interest to learn language as well. For adults, I will give short passages such as from British Council on conversation practice. I will ask them questions such as names, places and any questions based on the story. In this way, I can also listen to how they use the tenses and their pronunciation.

    Best answer

    Happy teacher's day everyone! A memory that really sticks out happened last year. I was teaching kids about differences, and I asked each student to name 2 things that are different. They said things like 'An apple and a banana', 'a car and a bike', 'a cat and a dog' etc. But one student pointed at me and said 'You and a teacher' Ouch!! XD
