Spontaneous Instruction Podcast

Spontaneous Instruction is a podcast for English teachers, group leaders, or anyone who needs to get people talking in a pinch. As an adult English language instructor, I often find my planned lessons giving way to unplanned discussions and games. In the podcast, I document how this has worked, or not, what basic elements I try to have in every lesson or discussion (whether planned or not), and how I stay flexible and ready to go with the flow without sacrificing valuable Instruction time.

    Using What’s in Your Bag

    When you can’t plan, or you leave your materials at home, it’s time to be spontaneous and use what you’ve already got! Authentic materials are close hand, and I’ll give you some ideas for how to use them.

    Getting started

    In this episode I’ll share a little bit about my teaching experiences and why I started this podcast. I’ll also share a recent activity I used in the first class after a holiday break, and I’ll give you ideas about how to make those “first day of class” activities comfortable and accessible for everyone.
