Hi guys! My name is Suzi and I'm a South African living in Poland!

And I've been Teaching English as a Second Language for the past

come up to me and ask me, uh, like how do you teach?

Or would you have any tips for other people

who are interested in teaching children English.

English perfectly, she speaks French perfectly.

She's not a teacher, she studied something totally different

and she asked, "What am I supposed to do?"

"I've never taught kids, I don't hang around with kids."

not your age, who you think of as some small little alien?

that could help you feel a little bit more

lesson with a small human being who would like

to learn English,  or who's parents would like this

So meeting an adult, just imagine, you're meeting this person

who's like, so much taller than you and if you

in this position in order to see their face

thats kind of um, kind of scary and intimidating

and on top of this, this person is speaking to

no idea what they mean. But when you sit on the floor

you kind of make yourself a little bit more

vulnerable, but you're also on the level of

and asking if it's theirs and showing interest in their Teddy.

Showing interest in um, them making handstands

pictures on their wall and asking, you know

"Did you draw this? Is this yours? Wow this is really good!"

So just being interested in them and their

isn't actually that difficult. I think a lot

do it, I don't know, I don't understand what you're

think it's important to find certain things

congratulating them on it. Or I do this thing where I kind of

I start with a drawing. Drawing in itself is a very

time. So for example, I would say, OK so.

"Where are his eyes? Where can you see his eyes?" *Blink Blink*

And the child usually points and I'm like

So yeah, those were three of the tips that I think

first lessons work or what helped you when

you would like, you're welcome to let me know too!
