Biorhythms - April 16, 2018
Lesson Collection #5 - Lesson 5
Students first create their own biorhythm charts. Then, in pairs, they discuss the items on their "To Do" list. Some of these tasks require more mental, physical OR emotional stamina.
A typical conversation might go like this:
Student A: When's the best time for you to study all night?
Student B: The best time for me to study all night is around
June 14th because I will be UP mentally. How about you?
Student A: That's not the best time for me. How about early July?
Student B: That's OK. How about July 3rd?
Student A: That's fine because I'll be way up mentally around that time.
This lesson guarantees a whole lot of lively discussion, and students will have to not only listen carefully to each other, but they'll have to coordinate their Biorhythmic schedules.
What Makes Our Lessons Different?
Teachers Save Time
Reduce lesson planning and gain freedom in the classroom. With all students busy, the teacher can casually roam around the classroom and offer assistance wherever needed.
Students Learn by Doing
Minutes after beginning each lesson, classes often become noisy. At times, very noisy. Why? Students, in pairs or small groups, actively engage in completing the lesson task. They use English to learn English.
Listening, Speaking, Reading & Writing
Oral communication is important. Listening and speaking have priority in our lessons; students need to carefully listen to each other. Reading is also important for the success of the lessons. The amount of writing required varies.
Fun for Teachers & Students
We believe students learn better when having fun. Our lessons range from silly to serious but each has a solid task-specific educational goal including grammar usage, vocabulary building and fluency improvement to name a few.

Dear Kurt,
I’d like to thank you for the wonderful worksheets; they are very useful, time-saving as well as entertaining, especially for students who don’t want
to learn English.

Dear Kurt,
Your EFL4U activities are honestly among the very best that I’ve discovered on the web. They are consistently imaginative, high quality and engaging. The students are motivated and the classes are lively.
Sherry Maisey - ESL instructor
Dear Kurt,
A HUGE THANKS !!
Because of what you do at EFL4U, my school is one of the best in the city. I think it’s really important for students to have fun, to act, to react and learn English by using it! With your active lessons, my students do all of that, and more….
Grammar is taught after or before the lessons… and all of my students learn while having lots of fun.
Kurt, EFL4U IS THE BEST THING THAT I HAVE RECEIVED. EVERY YEAR, YOU ARE MY SANTA CLAUS.
