1
Classroom instructions in English for teachers.
2
The words we use have power.
3
So as teachers, we have to be intentional in our choice of words.
4
We want to focus on positive language and also use group words as it promotes unity.
5
We also tend to use a lot of pleases in instructions to be more polite.
6
Please do this.
7
Can you help me please?
8
Please read that.
9
Being more polite shows the students what you expect them to do in the classroom.
10
Teachers are role models and we should be role models in our language as well.
11
It's also a good idea to include the students in a group by using the royal we.
12
We need to.
13
Let's.
14
Let us do this now.
15
We need to do it together.
16
Try not to say you have to.
17
You must.
18
Unless it is something you really need.
19
If it is something that you want them to do, you may say, I need you too.
20
I want you to.
21
When you ask students to do something, phrase it like it's their choice.
22
Students often rebel when they don't have options.
23
Instead of saying you have to, you must, it is better to say you may, you can do this if you'd like.
24
But the idea is that they actually have to do it.
25
But it just seems like you are offering them a choice.
26
That is unless it's important.
27
Then you can push them.
28
You have to study for the test.
29
You should do this homework.
30
I need you too.
31
I want you too.
32
Today, let's look at some classroom expressions and language teachers can use in their classrooms.
33
First, you want to welcome students to your class.
34
When they enter you can say hello everyone, hi class and you can also ask them questions
35
because as the teacher you need to build a relationship with your students by asking them simple questions.
36
How are you today?
37
How was your weekend?
38
You can give a comment about the weather.
39
Oh it's so hot today.
40
Make sure to drink a lot of water.
41
Ah, it's so cold today.
42
Stay warm.
43
Okay, everyone, take your seats.
44
Please sit down.
45
When you first introduce yourself, you can say, my name is Mr. Wish.
46
You may call me Eric.
47
In some schools, it is more formal.
48
You either say sir or Mr. Wish.
49
In other schools, they are more laid back
50
and you can call the teacher by their first name i
51
will be your teacher this year you can call me mr wish
52
or sir i'll see you every tuesday for second period in this class only one person speaks at a time
53
so when i'm talking please listen.
54
There are a couple of rules in this class.
55
So when you first meet your students, you want to give them the procedures and rules so
56
that they know exactly what is expected of them and what you want them to do in the class.
57
If you go into the class without giving them proper rules
58
and procedures you will have a difficult time later in the year.
59
Class register.
60
When the class comes in you have to check who's there.
61
Let's take the register.
62
Time to take the register or you can say time to take road call.
63
During your classes you want to tell the students when it is a certain time.
64
For example, you can tell your students, it's time to study, it's time to clean your area, nap time.
65
These times reinforce that there is structure in your class.
66
When training students, they need to know what is expected of them and what will happen at which time.
67
Let's see who's here today?
68
Who isn't here today?
69
Does anyone know why Jenny isn't here?
70
Does anyone know where Jenny is?
71
John, why were you absent last week?
72
In class instructions.
73
Let's start today's lesson.
74
Open your books and turn to page 50.
75
Jackie, can you please read this out loud for us?
76
Peter, continue.
77
Jessica, you're next.
78
The whole class read together.
79
Follow along in your book.
80
Read along in your book.
81

82
What is number four?
83
Jason, what do you think about that?
84
Repeat after me.
85
Time to stop.
86
I'll give you five minutes to finish.
87
Bring your book to me.
88
Show me your answer.
89
Take out your books.
90
You'll need a ruler, so bring one next week.
91
Don't forget to bring your pencil case.
92
Let's begin the activity.
93
I want us to do the work together.
94
The royal we.
95
Answer in full sentences.
96
Say it again louder this time.
97
I'll be back in a second.
98
Continue your work.
99
You may leave the room.
100
You are excused.
101
Come back straight away.
102
Don't mess around.
103
Don't fool around.
104
When students are working in groups, work well with your partner.
105
The three of you make a group.
106
Stop bothering your friend.
107
Is there a problem here?
108
What is going on here?
109
When there is an issue, start by asking a question.
110
Students are programmed to answer questions.
111
If you charge in there with accusations, you are giving your power away.
112
If you say, oh, you guys are playing around, you are not studying.
113
They can say, no, sir, that's not what's happening.
114
I saw you.
115
No, sir, we are working.
116
And then they'll fake going back to work.
117
But if you go in there, you have the position of power.
118
You are the authority asking questions.
119
So if something is happening, start by asking your students.
120
What's going on here?
121
What are you doing?
122
It seems like you are not doing your work.
123
Is that true?
124
Get them to explain themselves.
125
That puts you in a position of power.
126
Asking for understanding.
127
Does everyone understand?
128
Are there any questions?
129
Are you ready to answer?
130
Luke, what are you supposed to do?
131
Raise your hand if you need any help.
132
If you don't understand, please raise your hand. Is everyone done?
133
Is everyone finished?
134
Sequencing.
135
When you give students many tasks and you have to give them an order in which they need to complete it.
136
First, then, after that, finally.
137
As I said before, in summary.
138
As a teacher, it is also up to you to motivate and encourage your students.
139
Great job!
140
You did really well.
141
I'm so proud of you.
142
Don't worry about it.
143
Try again.
144
You've improved so much.
145
Good.
146
Excellent.
147
Well done.
148
Congratulations!
149
That's exactly what I wanted.
150
I think you can do a lot better.
151
I expect more from you.
152
That isn't what I wanted.
153
If you aren't sure, you can ask me.
154
I expect you to do better next time.
155
That's not right.
156
That's not what I wanted.
157
Try again.
158
Do it over.
159
When students are outside, you can say, Please line up.
160
No pushing.
161
No playing with your friend.
162
Eyes to the front.
163
I want you to walk quietly without making a noise.
164
Let's show the other classes how quiet we can be.
165
Classroom management is an important part of teaching.
166
Please settle down.
167
Please be quiet.
168
Please quiet down.
169
Pay attention.
170
Don't interrupt your friend.
171
How would you feel if you were constantly interrupted?
172
We'll start once everyone is quiet.
173
A good way to start class is to wait until everyone is quiet.
174
It shows them that you are the one in charge waiting for them to settle down.
175
But I don't mean going to sit down and pouting.
176
That is weakness.
177
Smile and wait for them to quiet down before you start speaking.
178
Don't rush the work.
179
I want you to complete it thoroughly.
180
Everyone, you have five minutes left.
181

182
Right. And stop.
183
Time's up.
184
Everyone, pencils down.
185
Please pick up that trash for me and throw it away. For me.
186

187
Please do that for me.
188
You can imagine a grandma asking her kids that way oh please do this for grandma, oh please help me with this.
189
That is 50 or 60 years of social wisdom that has taught them that.
190

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
