I do speak four languages; Korean, English, Chinese and Spanish. When I learned Chinese in China, I focused on the grammar, vocabulary and the usage of them, because Chinese grammar is completely different my native language,Korean, It took a long time to get used to use new language structure. Moreover, I could guess Chinese words based on Korean words, so I was hard and fun at the same time to learn Chinese grammar and vocabs. Since I'm living in the...  [Read more]

And because the majority of ESL students are basically in Asia; and because the Chinese make a huge majority of these students; and because the Chinese language is quite a complex language with little or no emphasis on the tenses especially the simple present tense, equipping the ESL teacher or potential one especially those working in Asia with the basic grammar of the simple present tense is worthwhile. This unit thoroughly...  [Read more]

You could also be interested in: This is how our TEFL graduates feel they have gained from their course, and how they plan to put into action what they learned: said: I took Latin for seven years, so I've already had the chance to think about the ins and outs of English grammar. That being said, the refresher course was good, and it was good to have an explicit lesson in English grammar rather than Latin grammar. This unit also made me appreciate how relatively easy it is to learn Chinese grammar. Chinese nouns don?t need to be declined, and the verbs don?t need to be parsed. Chinese grammar is all in the syntax rather than various forms of one word. If you...  [Read more]

Because use of these tenses is very context-specific, activities that structure student action in a particular tense seem to be the most recommended, and I can see how this would be a helpful way to begin to understand the differences between them. With tenses in particular, a basic knowledge of the grammatical structures of students' mother tongues is especially...  [Read more]

The first thing we need to do when we want to learn a new language, pronunciation. At least we need to read and say it out. Especially for Chinese English-leaners, pronunciation is one of the most difficult part in English-learning. A good teacher is a key to success. Once a teacher understands phonology, the teacher will be able to pass the knowledge to students. To have a good...  [Read more]

I like the idea that we should not be obsessed with drilling grammar the first day of class. This is counterproductive as the students may be intimidated and uninspired by their new teacher. Getting them comfortable and \"establishing rapport\" will be more important in the long run. The use of native language in class, what it effects, and how to avoid it was also a good point. I will strive to...  [Read more]

Most of my experience in leaning mandarin chinese has been via the grammar-lexical method. I have always assumed that it i the only way to acquire a language but this course has taught me that there are other ways. Indeed the size of my second language classes has limited my teachers' ability to provide role playing games or word games which are suited to smaller groups. I hope that...  [Read more]

The key word here is \"continuous\", showing that the way native speakers talk about these completed actions is not the same depending on the context of sentences. As a teacher it is very impotant to distinguish between these for students from other countires, particularly those in which past, present, and future tenses are not as complicated as in the English language.

On this count, I was correct but I probably didn?t realise how much time and effort went behind the planning of the lesson. Indeed, looking back I think my teachers excelled in another aspect of teaching: time management. These skills do not come automatically and I suppose I will need practice and study to master them.

Understanding the grammar forms as a whole is essential for language teachers. All the tenses are important; however, the present tense has a major relevance due to the fact that it is usually the first tense to be taught. Thus, grasping its complexity is of paramount importance at the moment of teaching....  [Read more]

Spanish would certainly be easier than Chinese since we can see similarities in how it's spelled. I think 'gap fill' in combination with multiple choice for less advanced students and 'correct the jumbled word order' exercizes would be more effective in quickly establishing the rules of grammar for beginner up to lower...  [Read more]

Pronunciation Problems for Chinese Students of English As a global language, English has been popularly taught as the second language in China for quite a few years. Now there are more Chinese people learning English on various purposes, such as applying for a higher paid job, studying and living abroad, or establishing business with western countries. According to my experience of learning and teaching English, it is harder to master English pronunciation than English grammar for Chinese students. Chinese grammar may appear quite simple compared to that of many highly-inflected Western languages (e.g. Russian, Latin, etc.), or even the low-scale verb conjugations, for instance, of English (e.g. "swim, swam, swum") because of the lack of inflections. Even though there are similarities...  [Read more]
