#i think if they're starting from basically scratch i would start out doing phonics flashcard activities/games and doing like

apparently jiwon's dad has a friend who lives in cheonan who has 2 like young elementary school aged kids and he was asking jiwon's dad about how to find good english classes (since jiwon's dad is an english teacher) and he was like "well. my son's little girlfriend* is an english teacher and she*'ll be moving to cheonan in march." so at least i have time to think about what i would do with elem kids in a private lesson setting before i get there and potentially have the opportunity to do that.

#i think if they're starting from basically scratch i would start out doing phonics flashcard activities/games and doing like #a grade k wonders reader. i dont like phonics textbooks i feel like you Do Not need a textbook to teach phonics #working physically with letter and picture cards is much better for kids. to learn how to write they can just copy some words and sentences #so yeah i think for like 1~3rd graders starting english fresh and new i would do a couple of weeks of phonics and then we'd start a reader #and we would do the reader where i'm reading first showing them the book and pointing to each word #and then we'd have me read and them repeat again with pointing to each word to recognize common ones #i dont know why im breaking down my english teaching style in my tags rn just feel like it i guess lol #t
