The Creative English Teacher Arthur Kaptein

Welcome to, "The Creative English Teacher". Our conversational way of teaching/facilitating English Language classes is called, "Creative English Role-playing". "Creative" stands for the fact that students and the teacher create something together. "The Creative English Teacher"becomes more a facilitator, whose role it is to support the students during their journey through the English language. The course book has taken over the teacher's role in many classrooms, and we find it time to take back the right to teach. We want to see all English teachers finally become truly "Creative English Teachers" again. If the course book or the lesson-plan were the teacher, then now we are saying to teachers and students: "You are the course book" - you create the lesson. In other words, it is time to stop being tied the course books, or lesson plans. It is time to focus on the students again. This book shares with you a great number of tools to do just that!!!
