Default Re: EFL one-to-one young learner ideas

It's always easier to structure lessons around target language or some language goal. So, if you could give us an example of what you want to teach, maybe we could give you some better ideas.

However, my conversation school one-on-one lessons generally run in the following pattern:
1. review
2. review game
3. reading/phonics/worksheets for review of previous lesson(s) and or introduction of new phonics rules + practice
4. Introduction of new material or practice of new material
5. activity with the new material

So, the lesson is broken up and I get all the main things in there a little at a time. We don't make any great progress in one single lesson but make a lot of progress over several months.

4-5 is the main point of the lesson and I choose different activities for different target languages. Some games are better for some forms and it's also good to keep shuffling the games around so they don't get bored with any one game.

I'm not sure if that was helpful or not ...
