I really want to know how to control students in the classroom. They make noise and they are not interested in English. How to motivate them?

I think you asked this earlier and when I went to reply, the topic had been closed. I'm not sure but I think it's because it might have been better placed here:

Teaching English - UsingEnglish.com ESL Forum

That's the section of the forum specifically for teachers to talk to other teachers and get help and advice.

NOT A TEACHER


(1) Some teachers say that the "secret" to good control is how you begin and

end the class.

(2) As the students enter the room, you should have a short lesson on the

chalk- , whiteboard for them to start working on (or you could make paper

copies). They will soon become accustomed to coming in and working on the

mini-lesson. (Then you will have time -- and quiet -- to take the roll.)

(3) Some teachers end the class period with a quiz. This keeps the students on

their toes and provides a formal ending.

P.S. Of course, the best thing for control, many teachers say, is to provide

interesting and meaningful lessons. If they see that you really love (and know)

your subject, they will behave accordingly.
