It is very important that whenever we?re doing an activity that we use the students names wherever possible when we're asking for feedback and so on and so forth. There are a number of benefits to using the students? names and they can include helping to actually organize the class itself, certainly to acknowledge when a student has given the correct answer and so forth, to indicate who should respond, rather than just asking a general question to the whole class. By using the names we can ask an individual to respond to that particular question. One point to note here is that if you are going to ask an individual student it is very useful if you put their name at the end of the question. This is useful because if you start with their name then all of the other students know that you're not going to be asking them, whereas if you leave the name until the end of the question everyone at least will have the chance to think about the answer in case you actually call upon them. So moving on from the use of their names, the use of your eyes and voice and gesture, what about the actual classroom arrangement itself?
Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching. This convenient, highly structured design means that you can quickly get to grips with each section before moving onto the next.
Learning a new language is really hard. Not being able to read or understand anything will really be a problem, So here I learnt that the two receptive skills are READING and LISTENING. Which are equally important in learning a new language. Choosing a topic in class and creating a more interesting lesson will engage the student more in class. I learnt that I must keep the task simple and yet easy to understand, Not giving to easy nor to difficult task.It is very good to know how to tailor the style of teaching and presentation to the special needs of the class. I particularly like the idea of doing a needs test in business English so that the student can participate in the development of the course itself. it is also important to note that specific needs does not indicate a level beyond beginner. In specific students may have some specific interest vocabulary but still need to develop language usage.
