Description
Summary:	The programme demonstrates how body language or non-verbal communication is useful for teaching and reinforcing difficult concepts. Body language expert Chris Caswell, assistant head at Myton School, observes and reviews a modern foreign languages class that's looking at verbs. He highlights how the teacher's movements and gestures help her command the class in front of the whiteboard and maintain attention. He also shows how the teacher's intonation changes to indicate when she wants pupils to listen and when she's looking for participation.
