In this episode I look at how you can use images effectively in the classroom and give your students more of those "a-ha" moments.
Through a job posting in a small Russian village, via a polyglot war hero, past split brain experiments and behaviourist studies, into Atkinson's Keyword Method (a vocab-learning approach) and out into the magic formula for "a-ha" moments, we look at what makes a perfect image.
At the end of the episode there are suggestions for different images you can use in the classroom today to teach various vocab and grammar points.

Episode 34 - Amy Winehouse, Britney Spears and Pattern Grammar
It's always the same:
The same mistakes.
Again and again.
Mistakes like:
“We’ve got more five tickets left.”
“We work four days in a week in August.”
“I want that my kids go to a public school.”
“Thank you that you helped me.”
“His parents made him to do extra classes at the weekend.”
“It’s not so big than my city.”
But who can help us stop making these small but common mistakes?
Amy Winehouse and Britney Spears, that's who!
Check out this episode of the Clark and Miller English podcast where we try to answer questions like:
- What are we thinking when we use language?
- What is pattern grammar?
- How can these songs help us correct the same mistakes we've been making FOREVER?
And please accept my apologies: These songs will be stuck in your head for the rest of the day.
