Chocolate English eu provides EFL/ESL teachers with original lessons (non-textbook) that make teaching and learning English more enjoyable and meaningful for their students and themselves.
Themes from everyday English that students will encounter and use in speaking, listening, reading and writing in the real English-speaking world
Readings from authentic material: local newspapers, brochures, menus, prescriptions, product instructions--and much more
YouTube videos and selected movies to develop and perfect listening skills
Grammar and vocabulary exercises based on the context of the material
Step-by-step guides to discussions, role plays, competitions and excursions outside the classroom
Lessons with actual scripts for teachers who want to save time
Teaching Notes integrated right into the lesson--NOT as a separate section, requiring additional time to read
Class Goals suggest the best time to use the lesson--as a warm-up or later on, taking group dynamics into account.
Material selected and written by Ilene Springer, a CELTA-trained EFL teacher, native speaker of American English and a published U.S. journalist.
