    Review Of Diane Larson-Freeman's 'Towards The End Of Chapter 4'

    Towards the end of Chapter 4 by Diane Larson-Freeman, she urges readers to “…make the bridge between this book and your teaching situation” (50). This book is a constant reminder for pedagogues and developing teachers to reflect and evaluate their own teaching habits to determine if they are offering students the best possible education. The goal of this method is to increase communicative competence in the second language. This is accomplished through memorization, repetition, and a series of drills that build up and add different skills as student’s progress. In my teaching situations, I use aspects of the Audio-Lingual method, especially in an English Conversation Club I facilitate.…

    Fourth Grade Analysis Essay

    Students say that Croatian helps them to better understand the foreign language and they find it useful when the English teacher speaks sometimes in the mother tongue. Bates and Whiney [11] in their competition model also advocate that the mother tongue have a significant influence in learning the foreign language because students often try to find language equivalents in their mother tongue and confide in the language rules of the mother tongue. So, before learning the foreign language they have the language awareness developed that helps them draw parallels between languages and see the differences.…

    Language Acquisition Principles

    As children learn a second language, Walqui brings out, there are individual, social and societal factors that the teacher should consider (2002). Some of these are linked to the native language of the student. Things that a teacher must take into account include the student’s proficiency in their native tongue. Additionally, how much academic knowledge the student has in their native tongue and the amount of prior knowledge the student has of the English language. “The more academically sophisticated the student is in their native language, knowledge, and abilities” can make a difference in how quickly and efficiently the student can learn in a second language (Walqui, 2002). Another consideration is the linguistic difference between the native and second language. Some languages, like English and Spanish use a similar register. While languages like Korean and Chinese use a different resister, creating a larger gap between the languages. This is knowledge that can be helpful when planning instruction.…

    Video Analysis Of A Primary-5 Family

    There were both strengths and limitations appearing in this class. On the one hand, both of these methods were teacher-centered method, which allowed teacher to control the whole class, such as giving error corrections and instruction. It was necessary for the teacher to require beginning level students repeating the target dialogue patterns and correct errors, which were in order to help students memorize and speak them in a correct way. Thus, the PPP method was shown in the lesson structure and sequences. On the other hand, teacher’s pronunciation was required being native-like, or it would make the negative influence to students’ pronunciation. The opportunities of students using the target language were ignored as shown in the video. It was also considered as a limitation of the ALM method which ignoring the initiative of students and the application of language in reality.

    Students' Limited Participation in Speaking Activities

    Every teacher must have experienced a lesson which was more or less similar to the one presented above. Making students of a foreign language participate in speaking activities may pose an enormous challenge. In worst cases, students fail to say anything despite teacher’s attempts to get them involved. However, one needs to remember that just as the best cough drop does not treat food poisoning, similarly, a change of the topic does not make a student who cannot form sentences become a rhetorician, or at least a successful speaker. To help students increase their participation in speaking activities in a foreign language one needs to understand the reasons of their limited contributions or the lack of them, in order to save time and obtain best results.…

    One of the most appreciated materials applied to language learning and teaching is, of course, video. Students like learning language through the use of video, which is often used to mean quite different things in language teaching. For some, it means no more than replaying television programmes on a video recorder for viewing in class or private study. For others, it implies the use of a video camera in class to record and play back to learners their activities and achievements in a foreign language teaching.…

These ideas led to the development of the Audio-Lingual Method.…

    The Silent Way

    On the years of 1960s’ the Audiolingual Method was under a strong challenge in the form of the "Cognitive Code" and an educational trend known as "Discovery Learning." These concepts most directly challenged the idea that language learning was all about mimicry and good "habit-formation." An emphasis on human cognition in language learning addressed issues such as learners being more responsible for their own learning - formulating independent hypotheses about the "rules" of the target language and testing those hypotheses by applying them and realizing errors. When students create their own sets of meaningful language rules and concepts and then test them out, they are clearly learning through a discovery/exploratory method that is very different from rote-learning. This appears to have much more in common with the way people learn their native language from a very early age, and can account for the way children come out with new language forms and combinations that they have never heard before. The underlying principles here are that learners become increasingly autonomous in, active with and responsible for the learning process in which they are engaged.…
