To be a good instructor it is important to know how use a positive world to reach the learner. The instructor has to entusiam to talk about the topic, it will be teaching. This topic show us how is importante to speak the right world. I really like that!!!!!

tanya,
this is a great point & a great strategy. Also using visual aids can help those who are ESL students to connect words/terms to pictures.

In our learning environment, we have numerous students from other cultures, for whom English is a second language. It enhances student comprehension when I speak slowly and clearly with a firm, moderately loud voice. Taking a pauze of a few seconds also helps after discussing a concept and before moving on to the next one. In a classroom of 40 students, I have to make sure that I walk around the room to ensure that my words reach every student and that everyone is engaged in the lecture.

Denise,
yes, my enthusiasm for the subject as well as for teaching the students will communicate to them & they in turn will be more motivated to learn.
