  • Welcome to The English Teacher, I'm David.

  • This is especially important for children.

  • You see children ought to play, FULL STOP.

  • It's amazing how much children learn when they are playing and they love it.

  • They are more motivated then ever,

  • and now they don't mind making mistakes

  • so finally they are speaking.

  • It's a principle that we fully support here at The English Teacher.

  • And although I'm an adult

  • I will always be able to put myself in the mind of a child

  • and enjoy a good interactive board game, absolutely.

  • Well yeah, "you're the teacher" you might say.

  • True, great teachers have lots of empathy

  • but that doesn't mean that you can't do it.

  • So find native English speakers

  • and play board games with them.

  • Try that!

  • Let me know what you think in the comments below and see you in the next video. Bye.

Welcome to The English Teacher, I'm David.
