Teaching Tips
• When showing a PowerPoint, give plenty of time for
learners to think of answers before revealing the
text/‘answers’.
• Play guessing games, miming games and/or simple
matching games where learners pair the job with the
person. Props such as hats/tools etc are great to have
in your teaching kit to enable you to mime/act out
words and phrases without resorting to English.
Creating ‘characters’ (puppets, dolls, cartoons) to
whom you can attribute names/ descriptions/
characteristics/ actions also works well as learners
often remember them more easily from one session to
the next.
Do One Thing!
• Practise the verbs learnt in this session by saying them
while doing an action/mime.
• Start a collection of props (look in the dressing up box!)
that you could use for teaching jobs without using English.
• Label a map of a French town with pictures/symbols
illustrating:
en ville
à la maison
à l’école
à l’hôpital
and display it in the classroom ready to refer to when teaching
• Explore an online dictionary such as
