This is how our TEFL graduates feel they have gained from their course, and how they plan to put into action what they learned:
Unit 11 focused on the receptive skills (reading and listening),two of the four basic skills in any language. It is important to integrate these skills into lessons since they are part of the natural progression of how we learn languages. First we listen to those around us, then we speak, and finally we read and write. Two reasons for receptive skills are purpose and entertainment. Depending on the reason certain specialist skills can be used. Scanning is used to find a certain piece of information while skimming helps to get a general overview of all the information. For detailed information we need to concentrate so more information can be absorbed. One can predict what the article will be about just from the title or headline or deduce information that may not be directly stated. Teachers must pay attention to texts or dialogues being used to ensure that students are getting a mix of authentic and non-authentic material so that the students can be properly motivated without being overwhelmed.
