Title:"Education in the Developing World"
Description: This set of worksheets can be used as an introduction to education in the developing world for your students. They may not be aware of the difficulties children face in poorer countries.
You will probably have to provide some background information and prepare other materials and activities to accompany this worksheet set.
This resource is quite challenging in English language skills, comprehension, and math/logic skills, so it is recommended for older learners -- at least 10 years old (and it is even appropriate for teens). A grade six student, about 11 years old, will find the worksheets to be quite a good challenge.
These worksheets are not meant to be completed by the students alone or in one lesson. They should be used in pairs or groups with the help and guidance of the teacher.

Title:Poetry Worksheet
Description: Read the poem and draw a picture inspired by it.
From the worksheet, "The letters ‘ch’ at beginning of an English word does not sound
like ‘sh’. The ‘ch’ sounds like ‘sh’ with a ‘t’ in front of it -- ‘tsh’.
Each pair of pictures has words that sound the same; the only
difference is that one word starts with CH and the other with SH."

With Word Chop exercises children learn to identify common beginnings and endings to words.

Most of us "stumble" into the ESL industry completely unprepared.
Some people teach because they need the job or because they want a chance to travel. No matter how they entered the field, most language teachers grow to truly love their jobs.
You must be a certified expert in your field if you want to be respected as a professional teacher by your peers, by your employers, and by your students.
This certificate is not just a piece of paper; as a successful CertTEYL graduate, you will know that you are a true professional.

Flexible, accessible and reliable!
Although I have been teaching young children for many years, this course helped reiterate and validate many of the techniques that have been used along with learning new approaches on how to specifically help the second language learners of that age group.
Additionally, most of the strategies can be adapted to an older target audience, which makes this course applicable to other participants.
One of the aspects that really appealed to me and helped me complete the course was that I was able to go at a pace that suited me well.
I appreciated the patience, feedback and support I received from my tutor.
