Confidence

Confidence
Many students lack confidence when using English. Confidence building is a trick of auto-suggestion. Get your students to start every lesson by repeating the following phrase five times in chorus.
EVERY DAY,
IN EVERY WAY,
I’M GETTING BETTER AND BETTER!
Surprisingly, you will find that your students will improve and get more confident.
