  So, the document itself needs to contain some general information about the class, for example the name of the teacher, the date and time of the lesson, what level of class is being taught and in what room, how many students are we expecting, this is important, when we've got things like photocopying and materials to do, what is the context of the lesson, in other words, what is the lesson actually about, what vocabulary or grammar point is this lesson covering and sometimes it's also useful to write out what the focus of the lesson is. So, in effect, the context of the lesson is telling us the grammar point, for example, that might be the present continuous tense, whereas the focus is telling us how we're going to go about teaching it. Another example to illustrate this: Let's...  [Read more]

Surprisingly when I got into it I loved all the different suggestions I will be able to use in my Grade 4 International class. I enjoyed the breakdown of ways to teach language. I went to school in the 50's and 60's and college in the early 70's so things tended to still be very traditional as far as learning a language. I was not successful at learning French, which was the required language in Canada but it was all...  [Read more]

I also think about how I learned a second language and the difficulties I had understanding certain things, like direct to reported speech. All of this experience...  [Read more]

  And now we have our nasal sounds. There are three nasal sounds and basically the pattern of air that's moving out of our vocal tract has to do with two big instances and that is a closure in the vocal tract. Except aside from the plosives and affricates, what we have is air escaping through our nasal cavity. These sounds include ?m?, ?n? and ?ng?. We're moving from the front of the mouth to the back of the mouth. First with the M sound or the ?m?, we're closing both lips and the air is escaping through the nasal passage ?m?. Next we have our N sound or our ?n? sound. There, the closure is inside the mouth but our tongue is closing up near our alveolar ridge and the air is escaping through the nose. Again that's ?n?. Finally we have our NG sound and the closure there is happening...  [Read more]

For me, this has been the second most useful unit of the course so far (the first one being unit 3 about teaching techniques). The point is that most of my pronunciation learning took place through practice rather than learning theory. In fact, when I got my degree as a Spanish-English translator, Phonetics was a hard nut to crack because it was so full of rules and exceptions that you ended up doubting about...  [Read more]

  We'll begin our examination of all the tenses by first looking at the present tense. There are four present tenses and we'll begin with the present simple tense. It's the most common tense in the English language as it talks about things in general, general facts, routines, habits. Those are usages that we'll look at in a little while but first let's focus on the form of the tense. Here, we've got our subjects 'I', 'you', 'we', 'they' and the base form of the verb followed by the rest of our sentence. Here for the 'he', 'she' and 'it' subjects, we have to conjugate our verb and in this case we've added an '-es' for 'teaches' followed by the rest of our sentence. With subjects 'I', 'you', 'we' and 'they' the pattern stays the same throughout we use the base form of the verb....  [Read more]

It could be difficult to recognize intonations of voices and to learn which syllable of the word should be given stress. It is fascinating that a simple stress in a certain word in the same sentence would change the meaning of the sentence as a whole. Just like grammar, phonology has also sets of rules to follow but just as also in grammar, these rules have always exemptions. ð?s w?z ? ?v?ri ??æl?n??? ?ju?n?t....  [Read more]
