Classmate’s Comment Unit 11: Post-Secondary: Young Adults and Adults I would like to say something about Jorge’s comment, I agree that adults are more responsible that other learners, because they have extra motivation to do that, for example to get a degree, or a better salary, etc. Also, I consider that teacher promote social practice and Interactive Approach, because the students have the opportunity interact with the others classmates and teacher as well. Now, I would like to try to answer Jorge’s question that is: Is important to correct pronunciation when adults are developing an oral task? I think it is important to correct students’ pronunciation or any mistake that they have, but not when they are developing the task. I consider that is necessary that they complete the activity, and at the end the teacher should correct the mistake. I think it is not a good idea to interrupt them ...

ReplyDeleteHello Nancy
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for sharing us an excellent English course ABA (American British Academy) application. This course is a natural way to learn English by means of the basic English Skills. First, you listen and understand, next you start to speak as a native English speakers and. Finally, I could see that we could learn to write using grammar rules.
It is a good application which we can have available for using in computers and also in cellphones.
For sure this application is especially for adult learners because has 6 levels which are aligned according to the Common European Framework (A1 to C1).
Thank you and I am going to put in practice some activities based on this application into my classes.
Hi Nancy,
ReplyDeleteI have to say that my favorite part of your video was your appearance in it! Thank you for making it so personable! :) I also love that you have pop-ups (web URL, ABA logo, etc.) throughout the video.
This web site looks like a really good resource for both teachers and learners. Thank you for sharing it. Well done!
Hi dear Nancy I would like so much your platform because it looks very practicle for both teacher and student, according to the video it has the two language English and Spanish to me It seems easy for adult students because they can understand what the learners are doing during the task. I would like to practice all of the platform that our classmates show us for the future thanks to you Nancy and all my classmates.
