It can be by giving a short introduction of self. You can enquire about the other person and have small talk about general matters. A little humour and an ancedote will help in breaking the ice and set up a conversation.
- I am an English teacher, So, in a new lesson planning, especially for new students or adults, it is very important to break all the walls/ice among all learners, inside learners, to get the best result and achieve your aim.
- I will explain in details, illustrating with simple ideas, at the start of the new training; the smart trainer should care about this point,introducing learners to each others, using new ways of introducing each one in the group in a new style as gathering the ones who have the same likes or dislikes together, according to this, each one in the group will find another partner as a starting point to share and do.
The trainer/instructor might use himself as an example to introduce himself to his new student giving them a little hint about himself.
- Preparing the suitable environment also affects on each learner.
- Besides, using written paper of general question- which students answered before the course- and declaring the answers in front of all, it means that we have many students who have the same things.
- Introducing the new lesson or unit by connecting it to the title or the picture of the lesson or even trying to connect the idea with real life is onr of the most interesting and active ideas to be used.
