A great ESL teacher will also recognize the limitation of ESL materials and try to introduce authentic materials to expose students to English in the real world. By using authentic materials, students will encounter words and constructions that they?d probably never see in formal ESL materials. They?ll learn abbreviations when looking and handwritten notes, and hear the true tone, see body language and encounter filler ?umm?s of native speakers when listening. Using authentic materials is one of the mainstays of an imaginative and motivating higher level course, but rarely features at levels lower than intermediate. One of the most common resources in the classroom is the textbook. And it's important to remember that a textbook is just one tool, perhaps a very important tool, in your teaching arsenal. Sometimes, teachers over-rely on textbooks and don't consider other aids or other materials for the classroom. Some teachers reject a textbook approach to learning because the textbook is outdated or insufficiently covers a topic or subject area.
