FUN GAMES

Because games are fun, teachers and students have a tendency to overlook their pedagogical value. Yet, many language experts claim that games are more than mere time-filling activities: they make the learning process easier.We also believe that games have an important educational value, and this is why we make good use of them.

The importance of games when learning English are multiple

1. First of all, games add a welcome diversion from the normal activities of the class. This allows students to let off steam and to feel better in their learning environment.
2. What is more, games lower the students’ level of stress and anxiety, thereby improving the acquisition of language. Indeed, it is proven that students remember things easier and faster when they learn in a relaxed environment. Games help create such an atmosphere.
3. Because games are very entertaining and motivating, they break the ice between the teacher and his or her students. Thus, they give timid students more courage to express themselves in front of others.
4. Also, games are the best way to make students revise language elements they have already practiced and been exposed to.

In conclusion, teachers should value games because they help encourage and sustain fluency. It also helps students see the English language as fun and not just a not just a difficult subject that they are having problems learning and that can seem at times a little overwhelming.

GRAMMAR

WHY GRAMMAR?

Grammar isn’t about linguistic straight jackets and rules; it is how creativity manifests itself in language. Grammar is how we organise our words and sentences to communicate with others and to express ourselves.

With grammar knowledge you know what is possible in English; you know how you need to speak and write to get the job done in different situations. You know when you can push the envelope with language, and how to do that.
