It is a great honour to join in the training of Bell Teacher Campus in Macao. During these days, we have learnt the Methodology for Primary school, such as communicative approach, comprehensive approach, classroom management, and the natural approach. And we also have learnt British and American cultures, vocabulary knowledge, Activities and Games and so on. That is a good chance for me to improve my oral English and the English teaching ability. We worked hard and had an in-depth discussions. For example, in Michael’s lectures, all of us discussed and shared our good ideas about words teaching, and we practiced with great enthusiasm. Michael thought highly of our works.
Meanwhile I was so happy to spend five days with our colleagues. We were very exciting to stay together, and it is a good chance to improve our communication. At last let me share some useful methods of Communicative Teaching.:
1.Skill integrative
2.Flexible responses
3.Authentic materials
4.Personalization
5.Context (creating situation for students)
6.Teacher is a “coach” but not a export
7.Focus on tasks
8.Maximice student talking
9.Students are active
10.Expose to higher level
11.Uses communicative activities
12.Errors are Okey
And it has so many games of communicative to elicit the students. It is a really great harvest for me.
