ESL Teacher Talking Time
TTT stands for Teacher Talking Time, and that's something you
can't have too little of. What you really need is STT. After
all, you already speak English most effectively so it's not you
that needs to practise. Make sure you limit the time you spend
talking and maximise the time your student(s) spend talking.
Talking is the one thing they can't do outside class. They can
listen on their own, they can read and even write on their own.
But they run a serious risk if they talk on their own. What
percentage of TTT should there be in a lesson? That's something
you have to judge, depending on level, group or 121, needs etc.
But, in general, you should do everything to maximise STT and
minimise TTT.
