  Case: What is your interpretation?
I have a student who has recently learned English, and still struggles to say some of the basic words we say. He has now started getting embarrassed and will not speak up in class because he is embarrassed about the way he talks. How can I help him feel comfortable talking in class?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I would get him talking by starting with small group work. There is a lot of pressure in paired partner work, but small groups with three students would be great. I would also be sure to include lots of songs, chants, and speaking into the lessons. The student will feel more confident by being able to talk amongst the other students. Not having the pressure solely on him to speak may help.
