Present simple, Wh- questions, video tutorial
Reflect:
What would you have done differently if you were the one to make his tutorial on this subject?
What are the important weaknesses of the presentation for elementary students?
Are he main problems presented characteristic and relevant for Romanian students?
Are the trainer’s presented rules simple, clear, true and relevant?
Is the presentation’s approach “grammar in context”?
The audio- lingual method
Reflect:
- What type of learner can benefit the most of this approach?
- How far is this approach from the Communicative appoach? Can the audio-lingual method be part of a language class based on Communicative Language Teaching?
- In what learning conditions can this method be used with maximum efficiency?
- What other important aspects of the approach are not presented in the slides?
