Once every four years you get a unique chance to teach English in a fun, exciting and extremely productive way. Don’t miss your chance this year.
 
Think about all the advantages of teaching English using World Cup stories from the Bangkok Post with your class.
[Football] The WORLD CUP runs from Wednesday, June 10th to Sunday, July 12th. Thus there will be stories every day for MORE THAN A MONTH. (And did you know that your Bangkok Post has had a daily World Cup section since May 8?)
[Football] Most of your students will be INTERESTED – at least a little.
[Football] Some of your students will be VERY INTERESTED, including many students who would not normally be interested in English. Some of your students will be World Cup EXPERTS and you can use their expertise in class – even if they are not very good in English.
[Football] Most of your students will be following the World Cup coverage on television and in Thai newspapers and magazines, so the English language coverage will be much EASIER TO UNDERSTAND.
[Football] World Cup vocabulary is FUN and much of it can be acted out in role plays.
[Football] There is even a lot of interesting reading material for students who DON’T LIKE football.
[Football] You can easily make out-of-class assignments and expect your students to ENJOY them.
