reflect from my friends teaching

Today is last week for this class. Today have many people to present teaching technique. The first person is teaching about currency she teaches speaking skill. In this time she is very good speak and has many materials but I think her content is difficult for student.  The second person is teaching about education of Malaysia and reading skill before she teaches she open video about Malaysia I think this video can lead student to know what teacher will teach. After that she teaches about meaning of scanning and skimming and she has an exercise to practice this reading skill. The third person is teaching about interesting place of Vietnam and writing skill. In warm up she opens video about what is Asean. In this video is cartoon video that can motivate students to learn. After that she teaches about how to write a letter. In this time her teaching is better from last time she is very try to do that. Also she speaks English not fluency. The fourth person is me. I teaching about interesting places of Singapore and listening skill. In warm up I open video about Singapore for lead to the lesson. After that I open conversation about book a flight tickets to practice student’s listening skill. Next I give students to make a conversation and practice their speaking skill. In this time I think I teach don’t perfect because isn’t more confidence. The fifth person is teaching about interesting of Singapore and writing skill. I like his teaching because is a good idea and student can use in real situation. He gives students to book a flight tickets by internet online. In this time has a game and authentic materials. It is good for our friends.

I think Teaching technique in my classroom have several techniques that I can apply to my teaching I next semester. Especially, authentic materials that very interesting and can motivate and make a good atmosphere for students. Good teaching method is good successful for teaching.

Reading from outside

To accomplish this goal, instructors focus on the process of reading rather than on its product. They develop students' awareness of the reading process and reading strategies by asking students to think and talk about how they read in their native language.

They allow students to practice the full repertoire of reading strategies by using authentic reading tasks. They encourage students to read to learn (and have an authentic purpose for reading) by giving students some choice of reading material.

When working with reading tasks in class, they show students the strategies that will work best for the reading purpose and the type of text. They explain how and why students should use the strategies.

They have students practice reading strategies in class and ask them to practice outside of class in their reading assignments. They encourage students to be conscious of what they're doing while they complete reading assignments.

They encourage students to evaluate their comprehension and self-report their use of strategies. They build comprehension checks into in-class and out-of-class reading assignments, and periodically review how and when to use particular strategies.

They encourage the development of reading skills and the use of reading strategies by using the target language to convey instructions and course-related information in written form: office hours, homework assignments, test content.

They do not assume that students will transfer strategy use from one task to another. They explicitly mention how a particular strategy can be used in a different type of reading task or with another skill.

By raising students' awareness of reading as a skill that requires active engagement, and by explicitly teaching reading strategies, instructors help their students develop both the ability and the   confidence to handle communication situations they may encounter beyond the classroom. In this way they give their students the foundation for communicative competence in the new language.
