ZOOM TOOLBAR – whenever you click on the arrow next to each icon a pop up menu

Before you start the class if the material you are going to use is in PDF format and your instructor guide is also in PDF Format
you need to open each pdf in a separate window. If you don’t, when you share the student book and later want to see the
instructor guide, you will not be able to switch from one to the other without your student seeing what you are doing. So one of
these windows, let’s say Meetings has to be opened in another window. There are two ways of doing this. One of them is by
clicking on Meetings and dragging it to the top of your screen this will automatically move it to another window
The other way is to open the pdf and click CTRL+K - this will open the following window and you need to make sure that “abrir
documentos como nuevas pestañas” - “open documents in a separate window” is not checked
Screen Sharing When you click Share Screen, this box opens up and you can select the application
or material you want to share. Double click on what you want to share or select
and later click on share sceen at the bottom
Remember to always share document and not your desktop. When you share the document on ZOOM you
can navigate through your screen and look at your instructor manual without the student seeing what you
are doing. All they will see is the document you are sharing with them. If you share desktop, the student
will see your desktop and therefore anything you open on it.
If you do not open and minimize the student book and audio on your computer
before the class, you will not be able to select it from the share screen options.
To play the audio, simply click on the audio, which should be opened in your toolbar. The student will still see
the student book on his screen while you are playing the audio.
Some books will have the audio embedded in the student book. If this is the
case all you need to do is click on the audio icon
• The Annotations toolbar will appear at the top of your screen whenever
• Just click on the tool that you want to use and write, draw, highlight or erase. You can also write on the
Student book, but this is not recommendable because everything you write on one page will transfer to
the following pages. So, if you are going to write on the student book make sure you erase it before
moving on to the next page. You can also write on the side of the screens. Whatever you write on the
whiteboard will be saved when you stop share.
Once classes are programmed on ZOOM they will appear on your ZOOM application. They will also appear on your VSS
calendar but that is only for payroll purposes. To identify ZOOM lessons in your VSS calendar, the words “ZOOM” will be added in
brackets next to the name fo the program, ie: Despegar (ZOOM)
Zoom App
If you cannot access the audios, please remember that you can find them with
your instructor manuals at: http://instructors.berlitzdigital.com/Default.aspx
Keep in mind…
• The video should always be used.
• Please make sure you comply with the Berlitz dress code policies.
• You need to be in a silent place. No background noise specially if you are not going to
use headsets.
• Use a white background only. If you want to use a virtual background remember
you need to place a green sheet or green cardboard behind you or the virtual
background will not project.
• Check your connection speed, microphone and headsets before each session.
• Remember to always project a professional image.
• Use the camera to help you praise, convey meaning, etc. Gestures are essential for
teaching beginner students.
• Record yourself and see how you look and how loudly you speak?
Do you do anything distracting with your voice, gestures, posture, etc.?
How clear are your instructions for activities?
Are you interacting with students effectively?
• Enjoy what you do and it will reflect on your classes
THANK YOU!
