Final Note

I've used these activities and videos in multiple classrooms with various levels of success. The time it takes to complete videos and have engaging discussions based on activities is entirely up to you and can include pair discussion or group discussion.

If you're an English teacher or ESL/ELL/TESL teacher doing a lesson on Natural Disasters or climate change, this is a great introductory lesson for getting students buzzing about new sights, sounds, language and science!

Alternatively, if your groups are interested in basic geography or global trends - these virtual field trips are a fantastic way to get students engaged by looking at compelling videos and engaging questions.

We decided to start Teacher Fuel after working as English, ESL and TEFL teachers for the last decade. We were often shocked at the lack of resources many institutes and centers had for teachers wanting to break into education as English teachers- The amount of time we wasted trying to dig up sub-par resources took away from the time we wanted to spend teaching.

After creating and accumulating our own resources, we started sharing with our staff and were surprised by the encouraging feedback we got. After taking a step away from teaching full-time, we decided to open our online marketplace! T-Fuel is all about giving you the tools required for ESL, English and TEFL classrooms without having to spend precious hours scouring for scraps online.

We never shy away from a challenge and are dedicated to giving teachers complete and convenient resources so you can have that little more fuel to teach your next lesson or inspire that tricky student.
