This is how our TEFL graduates feel they have gained from their course, and how they plan to put into action what they learned:
This unit talked about teaching special groups, including beginners, individual students,children, and business workers. It included the do's and don'ts of each group, and provided a lot of great teaching strategies for each group as well. I especially liked the suggestions for children, because they can be very challenging given their short attention span and various personalities. One thing that stood out for me was the caveat of not speaking in the groups native tongue. Since I am conversant in several languages, I often like to demonstrate my language skills in the class to create a closer bond with the students. I have learned from this section, that that is inadvisable, because the students will continue to expect everything to be explained in their native language, and as a result, they will be less likely to pay attention to the English being spoken in the classroom.
