Grandomastery

I am an EFL teacher, teacher trainer and manager with over 17-years' experience in the industry. I started using Grandomastery early this year in some of my higher level EFL classes and found it to be a fantastic learning tool. If you have a B2 – C1 level class, then this website is ideal, especially if you are looking for an interactive, communicative and fun learning aid, that doesn’t require much preparation. I often use it at the end of class as a filler and the students go crazy for it; it really helps to finish the lesson on a high note. However, if you have time, I recommend going through the different games/activities of which there are currently 37, as some of them lend themselves to specific grammar, functional language etc., and therefore you can use the tool to practise and review the target language from your lessons.

I’ve found that not only do the activities engage my students, but they also give them the opportunity to produce language at length on random topics and in doing so boosts their confidence and increases fluency. In addition, it helps students to be more creative and improves their analytical thinking, which some students from more traditional learning environments can struggle with. Some of the activities are great for IELTS part 2 speaking practice, allowing for delayed feedback at the end of the game. Teachers can even use the website as a needs analysis tool, which is especially useful when getting to know the strengths and weaknesses of a new class or student. In fact, for more confident teachers, it could even be used as an intro to a Dogme style lesson. Grandomastery is a highly innovative and flexible learning tool that really does help students and teachers alike. I like it so much that I have incorporated it into my classroom and online lessons on a daily basis and I strongly encourage other teachers, be it new to teaching or old hands, to do the same.
