One piece of equipment I don't want to use or think is necessary is the cassette recorder because it is better to speak to the class myself or have the class speak, and aid this speaking with body language and visual aids such as pictures. A piece of equipment I am intrigued by is the IWB, especially since I've never seen one before, obviously never using one. They weren't around when I was in school.

Every moment that I speak, I rarely give any thought to what \"tense\" I'm speaking, I just speak to the occassion because I had the privilege of growing up in America for the entirety of my life. How I learned to speak proper English throughout my life is a mystery to me because I certainly don't remember going into this much detail in school.

Teaching one on one lessons can be more productive, and beneficial for the student, but it is less dynamic and social. Having a mixed group of international students is usually an advantage because the only language that they can use to communicate with each other is English. When teaching young learners I should speak only in English, and speak slowly, and use gestures. Most...  [Read more]

I speak English as a first language, so it feels natural to me to use different forms of present tense depending on context, but obviously EFL students may need to learn it more explicitly. It was also interesting to see the common errors that EFL students make - how similar are the errors across those with different first languages? That would be interesting to know.As i said in past units as native English speakers once we get out of...  [Read more]

I think these aspects of language are taken for granted since we don't automatically think in these terms, we just instinctively know how to speak and when to use the proper tenses, which makes it challenging to understand how a new learner might struggle when learning a new language. I do feel that this unit...  [Read more]

We are getting deeper into the process of instruction and student interaction. As a native speaker of English, it's easy for me to speak and understand.

I found it tricky learning about 12 tenses and their forms when I speak my language without thinking about it or dissecting sentence form. The notes were a good way to familiarize myself with the forms and usage, but in the end, it was the video lesson that helped me absorb all the information and definitions.

One of the new ideas I got was to have the students sit back-to-back and watch a muted video and then describe the scene to their partner. The effective use of the board was useful (i.e. the idea of have a prototype planned out on a separate sheet of paper to follow).This unit made me recognize major flaws I have had in previous English lessons to young learners.
