The Benefits of Using Board Games to Teach English
Using board games as a teaching tool can be highly effective for improving students' fluency and reducing their fear and anxiety related to speaking. Board games provide an enjoyable and engaging way for students to practice language skills. By integrating board games into the classroom, teachers like Stanek, an English teacher from the Czech Republic, can create a fun and interactive learning environment. While some may argue that using board games may not always align with traditional teaching methods or specific language outcomes, as long as students perceive the games as beneficial, it can still be a valuable supplementary approach.
