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 insisted on the value of teaching listening and reading skills, as well as the balance to keep between the 4 skills when learning a language.
It also gave a vague idea on how to built learners interest through an original and simple lesson plan.
Personally, I would have had the students singing the most popular songs of the artists as a karaoke challenge. Carefully selecting the most catchy songs and lyrics that are easy to interpret. Singing is often the first form of expression of an unknown language, for we listen to a huge number of foreign songs during our lifetime.Quite a lot of the content of this unit was very clear and familiar. Very useful is the list of websites where teaching materials can be found, even organized according to different areas of topics. Using classroom aids is an individual choice of a teacher, and it is interesting how different the extent of using aids is. I worked with a teacher who would be fine with a chalk and a black board. She did use more, but not necessarily. Next door, at the same school, same grade level, the teacher used all possible electronic modern aids. The impact on students is very, very different.
