UNMOTIVATED STUDENTS: ENGLISH IS EVERYWHERE


SOME STUDENTS THINK ENGLISH IS USELESS, ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY ARE UNMOTIVATED OR AT RISK OF DROPPING OUT OF SCHOOL BUT ENGLISH IS ALREADY PART OF THEIR EVERYDAY LIVES. THEY USE ENGLISH IN VIDEO GAMES, MUSIC, SOCIAL MEDIA, APPS, FILMS, SPORTS AND ON THE INTERNET.

SHOWING STUDENTS THAT THEY ALREADY USE ENGLISH EVERY DAY CAN MAKE THE SUBJECT MORE MEANINGFUL. IT CAN HELP THEM SEE ENGLISH NOT AS ANOTHER SCHOOL SUBJECT, BUT AS A USEFUL TOOL FOR REAL LIFE.
