This is how our TEFL graduates feel they have gained from their course, and how they plan to put into action what they learned:
In this Unit the basic skills of a language were discussed. These were productive, which involved speaking and writing and receptive skills which are listening and reading. The main focus of this unit was the receptive skills reading and listening.
I learnt that reading and listening are done for two reasons.
1. For purpose
2. For entertainment
It could be that we are just skimming through a magazine, scanning a news paper or making assumptions based on the headline of the news. When teaching receptive skills we need to select topics carefully to include everyones interest over a period of time.
What ever we choose we would first need to teach new words/ vocabulary to students for better understand of the lesson, after the engage phase. The text in the study phase should be fully understood by students by use of task sheets or discussion before moving on to the activate stage.
