Theories, Methods & Techniques of Teaching - Methodology Review

 

Before we move on to the final methodology for today, let's just recap and see where we are at this point in time. We're looking at different learning methodologies. Each of those methodologies takes its premise from being somewhere on this particular spectrum of ?nature versus nurture? and where we are on this spectrum gives us a starting point for the background or theory to that particular methodology. So, we?ve had a look starting in the 17th century and the classical method and moving on as the ideas of psychology developed to various methods, such as audiolingualism, the silent way, Suggestopedia and TPR. Each of these showing a development as knowledge about learning increased and each of these takes a different starting point on our English spectrum.


Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course. Each of our online courses is broken down into concise units that focus on specific areas of English language teaching. This convenient, highly structured design means that you can quickly get to grips with each section before moving onto the next.

This unit was very helpful in tying together everything learned and in getting me to start thinking about how I would work this into a single lesson, or multi-lesson plan. The examples shown in the unit were great at showcasing real cases of utilising this technique. As an event planner it highlighted for me how I could use those skills as a TEFL teacher.THIS UNIT, EVALUATING AND TESTING ENABLES BOTH THE TEACHER AND THE STUDENT TO KNOW THE VARIOUS LEVELS OF THE LANGUAGE AND WHERE STUDENT FINDS DIFFICULTY. ENGLISH HAS BECOME THE MAIN AND MOST COMMONLY USED LANGUAGE USED WORLDWIDE .AS A TEACHER KNOWING THE VARIOUS ASSESSMENT,HOW AND WHEN TO APPLY IT MAKES IT POSSIBLE TO HELP STUDENT WHERE THERE IS A PROBLEM
