A FEW WORDS ABOUT US
English-behind-the-scenes is the brainchild of a group of qualified and experienced English language teachers from diverse backgrounds who, among other things, work as English language examiners for a prestigious international university.
In our many years of teaching experience we have always been amazed at how much students have enjoyed video-based learning, and how much they have benefited from such work linguistically.
Unlike most other teaching material available, films reflect an endless variety of powerful and diverse contexts in which language occurs.
Both the impact of the context and the degree to which students are able to identify with it appear to be vital in helping students remember the language encountered.
Observations such as these set us thinking about the possibility of using films as an integral part of our language teaching.
In consultations with fellow teachers we discovered that there was a very clear demand for screen learning, but there was nothing on the market to cater for it, which in turn led us to develop this project, which combines language learning with the pleasure of watching a movie.
After months of hard work we are delighted to be able to offer our fellow English-language teachers around the world english-behind-the-scenes, a collection of ready-made, user-friendly lessons based on a range of well-known, thoroughly enjoyable and highly-motivating films.
We hope you enjoy using them with your students as much as we did preparing them!
