Here's a little heads up for you if you don't already know about this website I found called Waygook. It's an ESL website, based in Korea. It is the most up to date, with the times ESL ideas site I've come across, except for mine of course!
The main strength of Waygook lies in the strong fold of teachers adding the most awesome P.P.T E.S.L game templates that you can find anywhere on the internet, and it's free!
What Does Waygook Mean?
Apparently "Waygook" or "Waygookin" means foreigner in Korean. For those of you based in China, like myself, it is the equivalent to "Waiguoren" or "Laowai".
Registering and Signing-Up
You can register and sign up. This allows you to scan the forums for all kinds of ideas and discussions about teaching ESL. As I say, it is based in Korea, so some of the activities are geared that way (as in having Korean translations), but most times it is easy to edit the templates tweaking to adjust to your own needs. I highly recommend this site.
Many Cool ESL P.P.T's
The amount of quality game p.p.t games will blow your mind. Bomb games, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, Family Feud, Wheel Of Fortune, Quizzes....I could go on forever. I'm spending this week teaching a "Reveal the Picture P.P.T" that I picked up from Waygook... my kids are absolutely loving it.
Share The Love
Now I should be trying to keep you all at my site for ideas (and not be so kind as to keep sending you to others websites) but I truly know how taxing it can be finding really good ESL activities, so please show a little kindness back. You can show your support just by joining in the forum or adding some comments and keeping a watch here at ESL-TASTIC. I will keep providing the best games, lesson ideas, links, ideas and products that I come across. Thanks for dropping by! Oh yeah here's the Waygook link - Cool ESL Powerpoints.
