Problem - Teaching Basic English Language

Basil Market users,

I'm actually teaching basic English Language to a [b]seven year old Korean boy[/b] which seems impossible to teach because of his [b]low understanding in English.[/b]

Let me tell you the languages we know:

Me - English Language (Stage 67/100), Chinese Language (Stage 51/100), Malay Language (Stage 37/100), Korean Language (Stage 1/100) </3

My pupil - English Language (Stage 5/100), Chinese Language (Stage 25/100), Korean Language (Stage 45/100)

[b]Do you have any tips into teaching a little seven year old kid who has not much of understanding to English? If you do, please comment. Thanks![b]

[quote=ShiKage08]In order :

-Do the alphabet
-Start with greetings
-Start with introductions
-Start with basic nouns (bodily features, things you see around your house, the sky, the ground, trees, the sun, the moon, etc.
-Start with basic verbs (run, do, eat, drink, sleep)
-Start with adverbs and adjectives
-Start with conjugations of verbs and adverbs

etc.[/quote]

Don't forget teaching easy words. Vocabulary brings you a longer way than grammar.
