Tips for Creating ESL/EFL Lesson Plans
As a teacher your lesson plan will be your most important tool; with one in hand you will be able to walk into your classroom with confidence, fully aware of what your lesson entails and how you're going to teach it. Without one, unless you're a very experienced teacher and you know the ropes, you're likely to walk into your classroom and all chaos will ensue.
Having a lesson plan will give you the confidence you need when you enter the classroom (which, as a new EFL teacher, is the key to smashing your first few lessons). Lesson plans can be pretty daunting at first, there's so much to include; timings, aims, activities, interactions. But, you'll find that as your experience grows the time it takes to make a lesson plan will decrease, and you'll soon find yourself making plans days, if not weeks, ahead.
