Guess what is one of the most popular questions I get asked? Yep, it’s what to teach ESL newcomers, and more urgently – what to teach them FIRST. 

I have a free Facebook group, and this challenge – what to teach newcomers – is one of the most frequently identified by the teachers who join it. 

I also receive emails from teachers around the world asking the same question. 

And when I asked what the members of my Facebook group would like to hear about in my first three podcast episodes – sure enough, what to teach newcomers was right up there!

So today’s episode is going to be just that – the answer to the question: what do you teach your newcomer English learners first?

I will talk about the three most important things you can teach your students right away. And I hope you stick around to the end of this episode, because I have something I’d like to share with you.
