Hi it depends on what you want to teach the children as they will always learn by your example. For more information go to; http://www.teachkidshow.com/

Hello Mitzy, Do you mean teaching them any subject in general or languages and English in particular? I assume your question is a general one since you didn't specify. Here are some methods to teach children : - First you have to teach them responsibility so they become bind to the task of learning anything later. Give them allowance for example to make decision at an early age , let them care for a pet or a plant ,acknowledge their abilities and talents and help them improve . This sense of responsibility is a good basis for learning anything later. - At the same time when they start learning at school there are some methods to make children more prone to learn and facilitate the process of learning; among them are the following: ** Make them aware of the importance of the subject they are learning. For example tell them how they can apply Math in daily activities by demonstrating simple vivid examples while shopping for items and paying the bill etc. ** Teach any subject with the help of field trips like taking him/her to the zoo if they are learning the names of animals and name each animal letting them repeat it . The life experience always helps them memorize better. ** Make learning fun by intergrating any trivia games related to the subject. ** Reward them sometimes with anything necessary to keep a child motivated to learn subjects they find distasteful. ** Note that children have individual learning potential ,so discover their unique learning styles based on talents interests,dispositions. Taking that in consideration ensures optimum education.
