What is General English?
Typically following a General English course, students should be able tounderstand and communicate on everyday subjects such as (depending on their level, of course):
*general greetings
*the weather*family news and relationships
*general news and current events
*shopping
*telling stories and relating events from the past
The grammar content of General English Courses tends to be taught on a "need to know" basis and is likely to cover grammar needed for conversation.
Often General English courses will include social and cultural elements as needed. This happens in classes where, for example, the students will be visiting on English speaking country for a holiday where the teacher will include discussions about social etiquette (e.g. queuing, speaking to strangers, paying for drinks in a pub as you take them rather than at the end of the evening).
How will I teach General English
In most situations I'll be using a coursebook to teach general English. Coursebooks will include the kind of English used in everyday circumstances.
However in a General English class it's always useful to bring in current events and discuss them with the class. For example, any of these can be the starting point for a lesson:
*a major festival in the country/town
*roadworks outside the school
*a member of staff getting married
*someone in class with a broken leg
*the latest episode of a popular soap opera
*your new haircut
In other words, I will bring everyday life into the classroom.
To help teach and practice language associated with General English I will may well find that role plays are particularly useful. I will set the class in different situations and let them go for it!
