How to teach children online and overcome the physical distance with Herbert Puchta

Success in online teaching will primarily depend on our ability to engage our learners in ways that form strong bonds in a shared learning community, so that the physical distance between us and our learners, and between themselves as well, doesn’t matter too much. Herbert will discuss a range of activities that lend themselves to being used as natural modes of communication in a digital environment. The activities have been proven to help learners develop a sense of ownership over the language they are learning. Ownership is a result of a learner’s awareness of, and enjoyment in, their progress in using English successfully.
Based on his personal experiences of teaching a class of 9-year-olds online, Herbert will also share with you 10 practical tips that help to make teaching online a good experience for all concerned.
