This unit covered the receptive language skills of reading and listening and addressed more particularly some ways of getting at building students' reading and listening comprehension with the target language

This unit compared and contrasted two different videos of the same teacher teaching the same class

Receptive language refers to responding appropriately to another person's spoken language

If I could only have three items from Unit 17, I would choose board, videos and online resources

Unit three is a great unit for those who have never been in teaching before, this is due to the fact that the lesson goes over a lot of different methodologies and different examples to help learners of this course and beginner teachers different ways to approach teaching students

As a current Assistant Language Teacher in Japan without formal training in TEFL, I think that this unit taught me how to formally describe my work in the classroom, how to categorize my students by their English abilities, and how to examine teacher student relationships

Unit 5 presents several important aspects in the managing of classrooms

it goes without saying that the unit number ten is different from the others units as it contains two videos in the two videos there is one same lesson that being taught twice to the tai students , but it is clear the lesson was taught in a different way , in the first video , the lesson was not successful , the main reason of that was that the students were not given a clear explanation of the lesson point , it was hard for them to understand , so they confused and intimidated Also the teacher did a lot of errors in terms of teaching he was using concepts that are beyond the students level of comprehension However in the second video , the lesson was totally successful because of many reasons , first the engage phase effective in the second lesson , as well as he was using some techniques that helped the students to be effective , as he was using gestures and miming also the teacher was speaking more slowly and clearly in the second lesson

This unit discussed the topics of modal auxiliary verbs, phrasal verbs and clauses, and the difference between active and passive voice

I think this unit is geared more toward teachers with no experience, anyone who?s spent time in the classroom knows most if not all the materials and equipment mentioned and has a basic working knowledge of how to operate them

Unit 16 Overview The conditional is a very important part of English grammar
