ESL Lesson Plans

This collection of ESL lesson plans was originally designed for American English teaching assistants in France; however, English as a Second Language teachers based in other locations will find them useful too. This pack also includes lessons for private students learning English and mp3s (Midwestern accent) of English vocabulary lists, with French translations.

The lessons cover conversation/speaking, pronunciation (with use of International Phonetic Alphabet symbols), vocabulary, grammar, and American culture. Topics include holidays such as Thanksgiving, St. Patrick's Day, and Memorial Day; food, school system; sports; history; politics; and geography as well as functions such as expressing likes and dislikes, describing people, and telephone conversations.

The ZIP file consists of a folder containing the lessons and a folder containing the English mp3s, plus a description of each lesson and how I used them in my English classes in France.
