- c. How to introduce new vocabulary & sentences using new vocabulary
- d. How to get the students to generate their own sentences
How to build authentic relationships with your students
How to share the Gospel both inside and outside the ESL Classroom

You don't need to speak another language or be a professional teacher to be a volunteer ESL Teacher. All you need to do is speak English and love Jesus and we can teach you the rest. This training is interactive. During the training you will practice the skills that you are learning, create two lesson plans for different fluency levels and come away excited to serve the Lord through ESL Ministry.

In addition to being a great training for new ESL Volunteers, this is a great training for experienced ESL Volunteers to refresh their skills and be encouraged.
