A selection of English ESL those are printables

This is a plan for few lessons for seniors (beginners). It might be of some help to someone who is starting to teaching English to this age group. The lessons I give are usually about an hour long. These are the approximate plans, sometimes we go slower and we do not do everything I plan, sometimes faster so it is good to have lessons done in advance. I added materials that I gave to my students during the lessons and homeworks. We had about 8 lessons more and I will upload the plans for those shortly. 

The important thing with seniors is to be patient, go slowly and repeat a lot. 

Plan for lessons for seniors 

The map of the hotel is the guideline for the directions that the students have to take in order to reach their final destination, a specific location in the hotel itself. There are 8 cards, cut these cards and ask the students to find the destination for each list of directions in each card. The scheme of answer is also provided. I used this to teach preposition of directions to my kids, I think I had underlined each prepositions in the directions. The hotel is called "Hotel Glamourzonia" because it is glamorous,luxurious, expensive and comfy hotel for those who are seeking their own starlicious sensations! This is also available in ESL printables. Developed by Sirhajwan Idek

ESL LAB Computer Sales Listening

This is useful for learners of IELTS examination. For me, first learn the vocabulary and create the sentences on my own, then try to answer the sample questions in different arrangements at a time. And this ready-made worksheet is useful for the teachers who conduct the IELTS preparation or practice course and who want their students to practice the speaking skill for IELTS examination with less effort. Those who want to enrich their vocabulary and improve their speaking skill in an organized way should use this for the better future of their study.

Holidays

Here, you have a list of irregular verbs shared into 3 categories: those which all 3 forms are the same / those which the Past and Past Participle forms are the same / other irregular verbs. The titles of the tables are in Polish but feel free to edit them. I hope you'll find the worksheet useful :)

Irregular Verbs in Smart Tables - For Polish Speakers

Town and City

I´ve designed this song to be used as a warming up activity either in the beginning of the lesson or in  the end to relax the atmosphere after a hard day´s work .

this activity can be used with both children and adults and the level may vary as there are different activities : a fill in the gaps for those who do well at listening , ordering the lines which they may find easier , finding the opposite to revise vocabulary and a pronounciation task  . I hope they will enjoy the activity .

Q & A Sheets can be printed out for your reference. They are not meant to be handouts for students.

They are in .doc format and can be edited for you preferences.

Lesson materials are in American English. Of course, these can be edited if you'd like.



Q & A Sheets are intended for one on one private lessons with students who want to improve English conversation skills, But they can also be used as warm ups for classrooms – especially when students are paired with two different native languages.



The Q & A Sheets are split into four different groups on one page – this is for weekly lessons. There are around ten questions or lines for each lesson. Of course, some students might fly through a whole Q & A Sheet in one lesson. (Try to encourage those students to answer in more detail, not just say 'yes' or 'no.') Students can practice asking you for your answer by repeating the question or asking 'How about you?' for example. For students who are better speakers, they'll have no trouble explaining answers in details. You can even ask follow up questions.



These Q & A Sheets are what I use for my private lessons. Students get lots of speaking time and get to have more authentic conversations on interesting topics, so they love it! It's easier for me because I just print out one sheet for a whole month and use it for all of my students. The Q & A Sheet for each month will introduce a topic and a few questions, then all I have to do is listen and engage in a fun conversation.

February Q & A Sheet

A crossword with a few irregular verbs in simple past and a few holiday words for a Jewish day-school students (5th - 6th graders)



Please note: a couple of definitions are in German (for them to translate into English), you'll need to edit those to your students' mother-tongue. 



The crossword was created using a site called https://www.xwords-generator.de/en

Rosh Hashanah Crossword

This is an updated version of the previous worksheet.
International Women's Day is an interactive lesson based on a short video. Its aim is to generate a discussion about IWD and its relevance today. Students also work on their listening skills and vocabulary. The lesson is designed for B2+ / C1 learners.

The lessons begins with students answering some questions about IWM.
This is followed by a flexistage where less advanced groups can analyse the vocab from the listening in the next stage.
Listening stage 1:
Students define two terms from the listening. Then they listen to the first part and check the answers.
Listening stage 2:
Students are given a number of milestones and events in women's suffrage and try to match them with the dates. This might be done individually or in pairs. Students listen to the second part and check their answers. More advanced groups might not be given the dates and, instead, could be asked to provide them based on the listening.
Listening stage 3:
This stage is quite generic. Students answer three questions in pairs and then listen to the last part. They compare their own  answers with those from the video.
If there is time left, ss might answer a few more questions about IWD.

EADING COMPREHENSION DENGUE

A VPN ("Virtual Private Network") is a tool to hide your IP and browse incognito. It is a networking technology that can connect one or more computers to a private network securely and remotely. This keeps your security and privacy when you are surfing the Internet, allowing you to change your virtual geographic location, regardless of where you are physically located. Anyone who connects to the Internet on a relatively regular basis should have access to a basic understanding of what "VPN" means and how a VPN service works.



There are many reasons why a VPN can be a very useful tool, even for those who use the most basic elements of the Internet world. In this article, we tell you more about the definition of VPN so that you can understand the importance of using a VPN and the relevance it has for your everyday virtual life.



How does a VPN work?



VPN helps people to get access to restricted content, for example, Disney is blocked in some countries: https://www.vpnservice.com/blog/best-vpn-to-watch-disney-plus-from-any-country/



The definition of "VPN" is Virtual Private Network. To understand what a VPN is, you need to know what an IP address is as well. An IP address ("Internet Protocol") is a unique and unrepeatable number that identifies a computer connected to the Internet



The number in your IP address is made up of four number combinations that refer to the country you are in or the type of network you are using (for example "124.28.16.180"). This would be like the zip code on your computer or phone.



An IP address is required to circulate information over the Internet, but unfortunately, it is this IP address that causes your geographic location to be shared with any website you try to access.



That's why VPN is important: VPN providers have servers located in different parts of the world, which makes it possible to redirect the flow of virtual information. This way you can use another IP address from those servers and thus hide your original IP. In other words, a VPN will allow you to navigate incognito. For example, you can unblock Netflix or unblock YouTube.



At the same time, a VPN service encrypts your data traffic, i.e. it applies encryption (such as a password) to the flow of your information. This protects your information and guarantees your virtual anonymity.
