Drawing in my EFL classroom

As a foreign language teacher, I always use drawing to help students  learn the language. Students love drawing and it is a very motivating tool that I enjoy using every day.

I have most of my students draw pictures in their notebooks beside newly acquired vocabulary.

I also have them do so on their worksheets, copybooks etc. 

When children “draw”, I can see them concentrate and relax at the same time.

The mind opens up and language can “pour” in. It really can. 

I assume my children are highly creative (they are!) and I treat them as such.

And even if I don’t feel creative one day, you know the saying—“Fake it till you make it.”

Connection is the key
