ESL Games: 176 English Language Games for Children: Make your teaching easy and fun
Teacher, musician and creator of Teaching English Games and Home English Teacher.      Having been largely bored to death in school Shelley was determined not to put her own pupils through the same desperate clock-watching.  Instead of being faced with a class of children who forget the unit no sooner the page is turned, she chose to teach using games, and focus the bulk of class time on the listening and speaking skills, with hundreds of language drills, disguised in fun formats.      She created a collection of games from her experiences to share with other teachers. She has since shared her ideas with thousands of teachers around the world, bringing enthusiasm and a love of learning into the classroom, as well as great results.      Shelley Vernon holds a BA degree in languages from Durham University, 1989, a BA in music from Canterbury Christchurch College, 2000 and a TEFL qualification.
