A guideline for ET's teacher, you may find all your questions below along with the answer that will support you and your teaching.
1. Punctuality
2. Formality
3. Classroom organization
4. Service
5. Cooperation
1. Students don’t need a lecture/ a lecturer.
2. Students want to be able to apply what they’ve learned in practical situations (related to their work and life)
3. Students want to be corrected. Teachers need to listen and help them know, understand, and correct their pronunciation/grammar mistakes. Teachers can paraphrase students’ sentences to make them sound more natural or native-like (suitable with Elementary and above)
5. Students want to interact with teachers. They need teachers to have a suitable speed and word choice when teachers give instructions so that teachers don’t have to explain in Vietnamese.
4. Students want to be challenged, encouraged, and stimulated. They need more challenges/activities (Role play, Discussion, Presentation, Solving problems).
7. Students need simple explanations (keep it short and simple, give examples related to daily life)
8. (High-level) Students want to enhance knowledge & skills related beneficial to their job & life (social knowledge, critical thinking, presentation skill, etc.)
6. Students want to interact with their friends. Teachers need to diversify types of activity in class (pair work, group work, etc.) so that they can talk with each other.
We are having 2 kinds of online courses:

Google Meet.
You will see all your classes on ET App called English Town Official. You will receive an email with your user name and password before you start your first class
You can divide students into different rooms, share your screens, create a poll, ask them to raise their hands, etc. Pls Google for more details or ask another experienced teacher to show you
NO. Students can enter a class at any time of the course and will study the same content that other students are studying.
To make that possible, all topics/lessons of the same levels are designed to be equally difficult.
Please help us explain that to the students if they are concerned why they start their course not with topic 1, lesson 1.
Notes: We have a special policy for weak Pre Beginner students regarding this, please look for it at the end of the FAQs.
As the lesson's length is not long, the focus of the lesson is more about practicing, not introducing theory/new words. After each lesson, students should be able to USE the knowledge/ skills teachers have taught them.
EFFECTIVE
(STT > TTT)
Most students registered this program as they want to have more time to practice speaking with a teacher and expect to get more feedback from us compared to their normal offline classes
Also, some students would like to focus more on grammar, some on vocab,etc. We've noted them down but please double check with your student and agree on a study plan before starting.
PERSONALIZED
Interesting situations for students to role play, examples, discussion, game, etc and all your creative ideas to make the lesson fun are welcomed.
FUN
Please make sure you are ready for the lesson and log in at least 5 minutes before the starting time to avoid delay due to technical problems.
Change your background to ET's background. It can be found in the For reference folder in the Teaching materials folder.
Please make sure to Record the class when you start teaching.
No. But teacher please have a short Orientation session in the first class to understand your students needs and agree on the rules you want to set for your own class.
One teacher will follow a student in the whole course (up to 12 months) or just a/some levels (at least 2 months) and keep track of their progress throughout that level.
Op will add new student(s) to any 1:4 class that is having less than 4 sts.
As each teacher will take care of one student or one class with 4 students during at least 1 level (around 2 months), YOU will evaluate and decide when your student(s) can upgrade to the next level. Most of the time, it will be 2 months, sometimes, it can be longer or shorter than that, depending on the students' effort and ability.
Teacher please inform Mắm (Operation team) when your students are ready for the next level.
Yes, it is
Please note that we need to record all online group classes for students’ review purpose. With group classes, there is no way students who miss a class can redo it so records are very important.
This is also a selling feature of our course so please notice that if you forget to record your classes for more than 3 times, we may need to apply a kind of fine as a reminder.
You must log in using this account in order to use the record function

Please contact your mentor if you have any questions related to teaching (handout, teaching content, etc.)
Yes, there is.
Some Pre B students are too weak to join an 1:4 class right away so we may offer them a Foundation course (1:1 or 1:2) to prep them for the 1:4 course. The teacher who does the entrance test for a Pre B student will decide if they need to study this special cours.
The Foundation course may last from 3 weeks to 3 months.
