Observation of Esol class
On 31,march I went to observe a class of ESOL students.Efife Boock was the lecturer of that class.There was 11 students in the classroom.All came from different countries like China, Thailand, India etc.First of all she introduced me with the students and then introduce the topics and wrote the material on the whiteboard .
She use different teaching methods and styles. She know the diversity of the students so she taught them according to their level. She explain the material very well. First of all she took the test of difficult words and dictate the words, she gave the proper empasis on the difficult words so that students can understand the words and its meanings also.
She use the powerpoints to dictate the paragraphs and encouraged the students to gave the responses.Then she gave the worksheets to the students to fill the blanks.That was about the life of Helen keller. Then she wrote the right answers on the whiteboard and side by side she ask the answers from the students. In the end of the session she gave the homework to the students so that students can remind the classwork.
I enjoyed very much in this class and even i learn different teaching methods and preferences. All the students were very keen to know the new things and new knowledge.Even the whole concept was very clear to the students.I make my mind to use the different methods in teaching practice.

what a lot of different ethnicities in the ESOL class - as would be expected. Did you notice how the teacher is sensitive to the different cultures? Language teachers probably develop these skills naturally - dictating, writing and enabling students to practise the words are all important strategies. When there is such diversity it is probably more important to be as inclusive as possible and not highlight 'difference'. what do you think Randeep?
