Such a great explanation ❤

— @AbAb-ow1on

High-quality lessons can take a lot of time to plan! This is something that many teachers (and TESOL trainees) are very familiar with. And the lesson plans that you will design for your TESOL course are no exception—they will test your patience, resilience, and creativity. But one of the takeaways we want you to get from this lesson is some of our best advice on how to quickly and easily design good lessons for your students. So, before we get into all the details that come with lesson planning, we want to give you a simple framework called PPP that you can use to organize your lessons from beginning to end.

We recommend starting with PPP because it follows a natural and predictable order that most of us are familiar with (first, the teacher "teaches," and then the students "practice"). But after you have practiced designing this kind of lesson, we will also recommend other frameworks you can use that are different than PPP. Having a framework like these for organizing your lessons will make your lesson planning process much more efficient and it will help you get the most out of the time you spend getting ready for your next class.

Planning is killing me😢. It take huge amount of time

In the next video, Andy walks us through the 3 P's and the 2 W's, and how they fit together to make a quick-and-easy lesson.

Citizens of Hope is a community of teachers bringing hope to the world through TESOL—which stands for Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages.

With all due respect, I would like to point out that there is an error in the sequence of your PPP lesson . Specifically , role plays are typically used during the practise phase ,not the production phase.

I like how you modified the PPP lesson plan from being strictly taught in an orderly fashion without the ability to go back to the previous phase to teach to something similar like ESA where you can go back to the previous phase of the lesson plan to help students who are struggling, thank you for your valuable information <3.

You did a great job explaining this concept, keep it up.

@Ugochimhurumnaya

@

When you teach online, who determines the topics of the lessons? You or the school? And do they typically give you the lesson plans or is it always up to U?

@candlelightbeesgardening

@

No need for music, please, as it distracts viewers' concentration

Hi. Do you have any examples of semi-controlled activities for vocabulary?Thanks!!

@kittykitty3553

Speaking from experience and as a CELTA grad, that's how I do my lesson planning; by notebook (the old school paper version). The only time I use a template is when one is required of me or if there's a plan on that template. Depending on the lesson, I might borrow from previous plans, go by the subject theme, or go by the end production result and work backwards. Thank you very much for your videos. I can definitely relate to that teacher.

@nonsouffa6268

For this video you legit had to do a lesson plan on how to do a lesson plan. I bet you were motivated to do this video for the possible fact that you ran out of ideas for your next video.
