553. Each intervention at a time


One day teacher of English A said to teacher of English B, “Turn taking is crucial for the conducting of a class. Wait for your students to say the reply to your demand or question. And then you talk again. Set a rhythm in the class where a sequence of interventions is followed. Do not let any mess rise in the class, because one student is distracted, one other is saying the answer, another one is asking you a question. Act calm. They can repeat the pronunciation of words as a chorus, or one after another, you pointing at one specific student. Also dictation makes them get quiet and attentive to what you say, you dictating slowly, repeating each chunk twice.” / Photo from: a friend of mine.
