- How interested are you in improving quickly? Do you prefer lessons to be easy, fun or efficient?

Think about what you will be talking about and how you will make it sound like a proper idea as speaking it. In order to that you will also have to make sure it makes sense before putting out there. The best way is to get guidance and and also master English to a certain understanding before putting it out there and that starts by learning the basics as you would not want to use a word that you do not understand the meaning of also and will effect the reason of the application it is being used for.

- What do you think about learning the English language through songs, poems? Is the idea a good one?
Best answer
Poetry has been a long and tried tradition on how to teach English, I'd say teaching through songs can have negative effects though especially if a student takes a lesson to heart and remembers it (witch is often the case) because a song writers' number one goal is to make something sound nice, not to say something in a grammatically correct way. There are things like children's songs which are written with that in mind (being structurally and grammatically correct) but on the other hand I don't know too many adults who will enjoy a children's song. I'd say avoid a song entirely unless you can verify a song has no grammatical errors. No easy feat considering most songs have countless mistakes like that though.
Best answer
If your student relates to the genre of the music, likes music then yes, but i don't think it is best for all students
Best answer
Elicitation prior knowledge is important as it helps to activate existing mental framework, build connections and create a foundation for new learning. It allows learners to make meaningful association, engaging with new information more effectively and promotes a deep understanding of the subject matter.
