COMMUNITY LANGUAGE LEARNING

WHAT I LIKED FROM MY METHOD

Well, I liked this method because I learned that teachers and students need to have a good relationship between them and in that way students will learn the target language. That´s why the teacher works like a counselor because he or she will be the guide for the learning experience of the students. In my point of view, this is a good method because it allows the commnication between teachers and students. Also, when students don´t feel in a comfortable atmosphere, the teacher has the opportunity to take some time to talk about the language learning experience. If they feel satisfied about the activity types that the teacher is applying in the community or if they do not agree about something that the teacher is giving. So i liked it because this method has good activity types like, group work, reflective listening and transcription. It is a good option to apply in a community language learning.

WHAT I DID NOT LIKE FROM MY METHOD

One thing I did not like about this method was that it only works with twelve persons. So the teacher who is teaching the target language has to consider to have a small group. But, in general I think it is a good method because it develops a good communication among class members and it gives the opportunity to improve the target language in the community.

WHAT I UNDERSTOOD FROM THE OTHER METHOD

Tasked- Based Instruction I think is an interesting method because it helps us with the different real situations in life. Also, it is a good option to develop this method in class because it will be an important tool for the teacher and in that way he will apply different tasks to improve the language into the classroom. So, the students will not feel afraid about participating in class or having an educational relationship with each other. For that reason, the teacher has to know about what kind of activities he can apply in the class and the way his students are learning. :)

TEACHERS WHO LOVE TEACHING, TEACH CHILDREN TO LOVE LEARNING.


Well, this quote is really interesting because if we want to teach in some years, We must be prepared, and we have to have the ability to teach not only children if not teenagers or adults if we want, so we have the obligation that people who are learning, love it because effective teachers have to understand the content that they are teaching and how to explain that content in a way that their students understand  and how they can apply in life.

If we are good teaching, we have to demonstrate our students the best way that they can enjoy learning, maybe using different strategies in class for example, we can use technology or new educational tools. I think acting like a teacher is a really nice experience because we can help children not only in their studies, if not in their personal lives. For that reason we have to improve our education to form excellent students, achieving good goals in life.

I think teachers can teach all the things that they know, also if they accepted this beautiful profession, they have to have patience, love, and charisma to educate students. Having those important elements, students can feel in a good environment , and in this way they will feel comfortable, at the same time they will be learning, improving their knowledge in different areas, and they can enjoy it. So a teacher takes an important place in education.

Teachers who love teaching have to have control in the class because students eventually get bored , so they have to know how keep calm in the environment, also they have to look for many methods to apply in class, teaching in a good way, practicing with the classmates, doing homework assignments, sometimes having fun, and all those things that the students can take for their benefits because the idea is that the teacher takes an important role with his students.


To sum up, if we love teaching, we have the opportunity to share our ideas, our thoughts, and the things that we know with others. This is great because we can improve the educational situation in our country, developing new techniques, and methods to create new opportunities for the students, and with this they will feel comfortable knowing what they can do in their studies, and obviously how they can love learning. Having gotten this we will see how to be a teacher is amazing, dedicating our time with other people.
