9 ¦ Q & A: Motivating young learners, classroom climate & teacher motivation

The first Question & Answer episode deals with a variety of questions mainly relating to teaching languages and motivation. Thank you to the listeners for these great questions. There were many others I did not have time to get to but will answer them in the next Q & A episode.

1. Teaching/learning for young children in a virtual 1:1 setting with a view to maintaining interest and enthusiasm for the language.
2. How do kids of different age groups respond to different motivational strategies or triggers?
3. How  to communicate and get an atmosphere going with masks and desks spaced out?
4. How to be motivated as a teacher when the students won’t engage?
5. Strategies to ensure students don't look up lots of random vocabulary in creative tasks that they'll never use again.

For full details a list of these strategies, check out the programme notes with further information and links to research and resources at www.liamprinter.com/podcast.
