Many online teachers are required to use reward systems with their students or to provide extension material after the main lesson is completed. Some teachers even create their own curriculum and operate outside ESL companies. Regardless of your circumstances, BusyTeacher has 0 resources designed specifically for you in mind!
Some teachers prefer to use rewards and extension material exclusively through digital media, such as ManyCam or Google Slides. However, many teachers find that they prefer to print out their reward systems or materials. Still yet, some teachers prefer to blend a mix of both digital and hard copies. Regardless of what method you prefer, we've got you covered!
If a resource has been designed for a specific delivery method (reward, Google Slides, extension, lesson material, etc.), make sure to include the information in the title and description.
Every worksheet here on BusyTeacher.org was created and tested in the (virtual) classrooms of real ESL teachers just like you.
