This is the last in a series of five videos on teaching phonics for teachers of English as a foreign language learners.
I would like to give a big thank you to Adam Kardos for doing the voiceover.

Most children easily become completely immersed in their favorite games. Wouldn’t it be great if these children were equally positive about learning English in our classes? This is certainly possible in a games-based lesson provided we use games effectively.

Teaching Phonics: Special Combinations
In a series of five videos for teachers of English as a foreign language learners, I am introducing a child-centered approach to phonics that enables children to learn quickly and deeply, and prepares children to move beyond phonics. youtu.be/1r-sJFcMlBg

There are now 72 presentations at the Tokyo English Language Teaching Convention (Feb 9), which is the maximum, but there are still available slots in Nagoya (Jan 26), Osaka (Jan 12) and Fukuoka (Feb 23). Please consider giving a presentation. The info is here: ltprofessionals.com/conventions/
There is a debate about using AI in publishing. I'm making a children's course, and I can't afford to pay artists for all the new artwork. I am paying for complicated pages, but using Firefly for other images, and the results are great - using illustrations which I have rights to as base images.
