How to Increase Student Engagement as a Foreign English Teacher in China
**Make it interactive** , with a bit of flair, for example:**You can’t just stand there and expect students to magically start talking. A well-known fact is that kids learn faster when they are having fun at the same time than if you were drilling them in front of whiteboard: who doesn't love playing games? So **Try** making your class more engaging by introducing activities such as:**1. **Classroom Scavenger Hunts**: Hide around fake, low-tech items like 'Find Work Abroad' to see which students can find all the hidden words related to ‘Work and Jobs’ from a set of predetermined rules that are on sticky labels in the room;2**Jigsaw puzzle pieces with jobs as answers**, get them working together towards common goal (building something), **group discussion**: allow kids some freedom so they have space for their imagination. In fact, this is how you really develop student rapport - and a great way to do that would be through allowing students from different parts of the room work in small teams; it’s hard not wanting play when there are interesting jobs like "Find Work Abroad".## Use group discussionTo allow them space for their imagination:As we all know, getting groups working together is often more engaging than giving a set lecture.
