An Introduction for ‘Spoken English’ Institute Owners…
“Over 30% of the Class-room Time goes in Teaching English Tenses…”
a lot of Translation sheets in all the tenses are given as a homework… a
whole lot of them are not filled-in by the students… only serious people do it and
get them corrected by the teacher. Tenses Charts are used, we use
translation even with visual aids. When it comes to Speaking in GDs/ Role plays
Students still make a lot of mistakes & ….are not able to time it right!
-as gathered from interviews with Trainers/institute owners
Why this Game? TENSES: most Difficult for an Indian Student! How to use
the Right Tense and frame sentences in all situations without use of Translation?
– There are 12 Standard Tense-Aspect Combinations in English Grammar with 3+ uses of each (One gets the Situation to speak NO easy clue on which Tense to use and when NOT to!)
– Then, there are 4 major types of sentences: Positive (+), Negative (-), Interrogative (?) and Exclamatory (!)
• It’s more confusing with Active/Passive Voice* so either
student takes time to make a new sentence or what he/she says is misunderstood by listener
• Listener can’t wait to allow ‘time’ to frame a sentence . The application of Grammar needs to be QUICK!
Errors in Use of Tenses is NOT accepted and its not easy to allow students time to Practice all 12 tenses (without this Game). Gives a Lot of Tension to both Student & Teacher..either of them may give up on his/her patience!
‘Spoken English’ Market in India… you know it better!
• Brand of the Institute is important to get student to pay Rs. xxxx/month
• Only Good Quality gets ‘word-of-mouth’– Plus Facilities that you provide– Trainer quality has to very good– Good teachers of Grammar cannot hold the
batches their communication skills! Or how they get the students to ‘enjoy’ as they learn is VITAL!
• Teaching Basic Grammar and Tenses itself takes 10-15 days (Min.) …before ‘the student’ begins to SPEAK…
The Game is the BEST way to Get a Student to Learn Tenses -the Easiest way to Engage him!
is a clue-card Plus Round-table game :has been fine-tuned for Indians at Conversation in English classes in NOIDA (took 1 year):
• Working with 100-150 serious learners • All levels: Basic, Intermediate, Advanced• Students spend 2-3 months to Learn to Speak
in English with Confidence & Ease• The game is played for 10+ days (one fixed-day
every week after 15 classes) • No Additional study Material is required for the
Game + It just needs trainer’s support. • It is a ‘NO Translation’ based Method so you
may review not to give boring home-work!
The Game Challenge!• While playing TIP-Game: player relies
50% on the clues given in the cards.• The cards come random after a shuffle
(as situations come in real-life) and • The student has to use his ability
(tenses knowledge & skill to apply) + some imagination to make a ‘new’ sentence ‘As soon/simple as possible’
• You are invited to Visit us at T.r.i.c.k.s NOIDA Center in Sector 15 this Saturday and have a Look!
