How to Use ESL Speak Easy

This step-by-step guide shows how to use ESL Speak Easy’s interactive ESL lesson plans in your online ESL classes. This guide gives pre-, during and post-lesson instructions, ensuring optimal results for both teachers and students!


STEP 1: Choose an ESL lesson plan. 

Selecting the right ESL lesson plan is key to a successful online class. Begin by assessing your students' needs, taking into account their proficiency level and personal interests. ESL Speak Easy offers a diverse range of lesson plans, so you can tailor your choice to match your students' requirements.


STEP 2: Download and share pre-lesson materials

Download the lesson resources and promptly share them with your students. Encourage them to watch the video first, enabling them to become familiar with the topic, new words, and grammar in advance. This sets the stage for an organised and productive online ESL class.


STEP 3: Begin with a topic-based warm-up

All ESL lesson plans from ESL Speak Easy contain a fun warm-up activity related to the lesson plan's theme. This sets a positive tone and helps students connect to the topic. We have a wide-range of activities, changing from lesson to lesson to keep your students engaged!


STEP 4: Enjoy the video in class or preferably before the lesson

You can choose to watch the video during the class, as most are around 6 minutes long. However, some students may prefer to watch beforehand to optimise speaking time during the live session. It's up to you and your students!


STEP 5: Dive into the lesson plan's excitement!

Get ready for an engaging journey through the lesson plan. Each lesson is packed with various fun and interactive activities that change from one session to the next. This not only keeps your students' interest and retention high but also reduces your planning time significantly. Let's make learning a blast!


STEP 6: Download the homework task for your student. 

Now, it's time to ensure your student continues their learning journey beyond the online session. Download the homework task designed to reinforce the lesson's key concepts. This extra practice is essential for solidifying their understanding and progress. It's the bridge between lessons that leads to language mastery.


To wrap it up, ESL Speak Easy's guide turns your online ESL classes into an epic adventure! Pick a lesson plan, spice it up with engaging warm-ups, throw in an optional video, and seal the deal with downloadable homework tasks. It's like crafting a blockbuster, but for learning!
