STRUCTURE AND TIMING
Face to face
The face to face program provides you an opportunity to sit in on University of Technological of south-east from Veracruz class to explore experiential learning in a
small class setting. This trainee handbook can be development in different structures
or way to teaching.
The training will include “train the trainer” programmes. This course also comes with
a set of a manual where it describes and explain how to do the dossier in six different
areas and it will explain the topic of the dossier as Language Awareness, Language
and Culture, Language Learning Processes, Language Teaching, Planning and
Evaluation, Self-Assessment and Development.
Members of the English academy will explain to the trainees what are the aims of the
each lesson, it will give an example of the description of a class, it also will explain
what are the correct procedure to do the dossier and the conclusion of the lesson. It
is also important for trainees to know all attachments or resources that they could
use for develop their classes.
All the material or resources to support are showed face to face by the English
Academy will also be made available. The ultimate objective should be to create
increased the best methodology and strategies for teaching, so that all trainees can
utilise the information for improvement of their quality of teaching, and to createscope for teaching skills development.
All nine members of the English academy will be instructors who will teach in the face
to face format. We should not forget all benefits of face to face training which are
though face to face communication, additional information is available such as the
deducting through body language, tone, volume and modulations of voice.
Sometimes technology often does not facilitate the right type of information being
shared or exchanged. This means that learning potential can be limited. However,
the trainees are not entirely passive in this relationship or tutorial, as they give the
instructor valuable information about how they are progressing, areas in which they
are doing well and those that would benefit from further input. Face to face also
delivery allows trainees to share their personal experiences, thoughts and challenges
in relation to the content. This can be a rich source of learning and one that many
trainees miss when undertaking distance education.
The timing for this program using face to face training will be twice a week, three
hours per day, counting 60 hours in total
9/100
7/29/2019 Task 4.6(part 3)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/task-46part-3 10/100
Blended course
The benefits of face to face courses are well documented elsewhere on this
handbook. Onsite courses have the face to face contact which online courses lack,
and online courses do not include any practice teaching, and for this reason are less
recommended for absolute beginner teachers
There are many factors which may lead a trainee to go for online training, however,
factors which include convenience, cost, access, location, learning styles and
preferences.
Online courses do enable you to gain a useful insight into this handbook, and wherethere is a lower minimum requirement for the qualifications of teachers, these
courses can serve as a 'passport' into teaching. Online courses give a foundation
which is ideal for helping to orientate potential teachers who may be going off on a
short term teaching mission, where teaching English is not being seen as a long-term
career, nor to provide a sustainable source of income, where teaching might take
place on a casual or volunteer basis.
This kind of course will take more time because it will required more practice for face
to face and online practices. It should count 60 hours in total.
Online course
With our busy lives, conventional employee training can become a repetitive, time-
consuming task for all involved. In-person classroom training requires that everyone
involved get together at the same time/place, and the teacher must be paid for
his/her time, even though the same material is presented again and again.
Conventional training involves print materials, travel expenses, and many other cost-
producing aspects.
Flexibility: Online training works great with tight schedules. Since many people areliving busy lives, these Web-based applications can be reached from home or any
other Internet-accessible computer anytime! No more scheduled training sessions to
work around. Trainees can train at their own pace, and work around their schedules,
thereby minimizing loss of productivity.
Relevance: All content-managed courses stay up-to-date, ensuring that the most
accurate, relevant information reaches trainees.
Affordable: Companies with a large volume of high-turnover positions where
continuous training is necessary can save thousands with online training programs.
They eliminate classroom related costs and materials' expenses. Now trainers candevelop the course content, present it once and go on to the next project. Trainers
only need to revisit the course if the content needs to be modified.
10/100
7/29/2019 Task 4.6(part 3)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/task-46part-3 11/100
Retention: Since trainees are learning at their own pace, the learning retention rate is
often higher than in a classroom setting. They can still have opportunities to email or
call the teacher to ask questions, although many online courses now offer an
updatable FAQ section where they can look first for answers to the most commonly
asked questions, which reduces repetitive questions.
Reporting: Most applications, like Osmosis, are customizable. The reporting tools are
also customized to suit the company. During the analysis phase of the project,
specialists determine what components are most important and develop easy ways
to gather the exact data needed for grading.
This kind of course will take more time because it will required more practice for face
to face and online practices. It should count 60 hours in total.
Weekend course
The way for this training will be only apply on weekends, it gives to teachers all the
information that they need to know but on weekends so they will be able to develope
their work and put in practices their experimental work in the week with their
students.
Compact course
In this course, we use the summary of all the methodologies and strategies for
teaching, it also focus in the meaning of the main concepts and includes a lot of
examples about to how make the dossiers. Talking about compact course is
spending the same hours for having this course but the insensitive for learning andpractice increase, it means that teachers will have to spend more time practicing and
doing research that reading or assist face to face to a course. It will be more practical
than theoretical.

CONTENTS
This handbook helps the teachers in training to develop their own teaching dossier. It
is really practical for trainees, it will help in order to design teacher’s teaching
dossiers. This manual contents general information such as the aims of the training,
the requirements of the trainee, the application form for trainees interested, the
questionary and all the course rules.
It also specifies all strategies, structure and timing that we are using for this training.
Some strategies are face to face, blended course, online course, weekend course,
compact course.
This trainee handbook will develop the language awareness, language and culture,
Language Learning Processes, Language Teaching, Planning and Evaluation and
Self-Assessment and Development in all the trainees teachers in order to guide to
meet, understand and design six dossier for different areas, for any topic and level
they choose to work on.
The six main areas of the training are:
1. Language awareness, where trainees will improve their pronunciation training,
learning vocabulary, listening comprehension, understanding different accents,
learning spoken and written languages. Trainees will be able to describe the
language I am teaching and use the appropriate terminology, to understand the
principles of language learning and teaching, to select the appropriate teaching
points from teaching materials to suit different levels, to provide my students with
clear and effective explanations in a way that is helpful to them, to select and apply
the appropriate methodological tools to highlight differences in language systems, to
use reference materials (i.e. grammar books) effectively to provide my students withclear answers with regards to language-related questions at the end of the course.
2. Language and culture, the purpose in this area is awareness of socio-cultural and
intercultural aspects of language use and language learning, dealing sensitively with
difficult classroom situations relating to intercultural differences, understanding
different backgrounds (therefore different study methods) of students, cross-cultural
communication and applicacion of this knowledge to the teaching situation. Trainees
will be able to take into account and incorporate into my teaching the educational
experiences my students have had previously, to provide for individual learner styles
and strategies in my teaching, to design my lessons with my students' needs andinterests in mind in order to make it interesting, lively and motivating, to give my
students feedback on their language competence in a way that is appropriate and

helpful (i.e. error correction) taking into account the stage of language development
they are at, to encourage and motivate my students to improve at the end of the
course.
3. Language learning processes, in this area the trainees will be able to take into
account and incorporate into my teaching the educational experiences my students
have had previously, to provide for individual learner styles and strategies in my
teaching, to design my lessons with my students' needs and interests in mind in order
to make it interesting, lively and motivating, to give my students feedback on their
language competence in a way that is appropriate and helpful (i.e. error correction)
taking into account the stage of language development they are as well as the stage
aim we are trying to achieve in a particular stage of a lesson, to encourage and
motivate my students to improve, being aware of different types of motivation and
capable to relate those to my students at the end of the course.
4. Language teaching, trainees will be able to define the aims of my lesson and
understand how to achieve them by the end of the lesson as well as make my
students aware of what my aims are, to be confident in selecting, adapting and
designing materials to suits those aims, to use a variety of exercise types, to use
various media forms appropriately (Moodle, whiteboard, Smartboard...), to evaluate
learning tasks and activities, to incorporate learning tasks and activities which
encourage and facilitate learner autonomy and take into account learners' learning
styles and cultural expectations, to give clear instructions and make sure they are
understood, to manage a class effectively in a wide variety of contexts taking into
consideration the learners' needs and levels of language competence as well as
mixed abilities and clarify the meaning of new vocabulary through the use of different
means and I am able to check that the students have understood at the end of the
course.
5. Planning and evaluation, in this area trainees will be able to state the general aims
of a course with reference to the CEFR (European Framework), to define the aims of
my lesson so that they fit within the context of the whole course, to plan lessons and
teaching programmes and include appropriate tasks to suit the learning outcomes, to
use various ways of conducting a course evaluation, to do a needs analysis and
assess my students' language competence according to the CEFR, to inform my
students on language examinations available to them and advice them on the
appropriate options for them, to help my students to plan further learning to suit their
needs and use a variety of inductive and deductive approaches to present a
grammar structure and select an effective approach taking into account the grammar
point in question and the group I'm teaching at the end of the course. At the last area
but not the least
6. Self-assessment and development, in this area trainees wil be able to reflect and
draw conclusions from observations and self-observation in order to gain a better
understanding of the teaching situation and validate, bring changes to and improve
my own teaching, to receive and make use of feedback on my teaching performance,
to give constructive feedback to colleagues , to incorporate the systematic sharing of
ideas with colleagues to promote best practice, to access the relevant support

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/task-46part-3 33/100
b) Procedure
The topic of the new chapter (Unit 7/p.67) was YOU HAVE A TALENT! and in thislesson we looked describing student’s own talents and asking about other people’s,describing people’s positive qualities, talking about abilities and talking about whocan do what in a group. A good part of this lesson directly follows the lesson layoutof the Teacher’s Guide. This book is an invaluable selection of guidelines and tips,which not only facilitate lesson planning, but have taught me many useful strategiesto improve my teaching and help my students. During our UT’s term, we have beenable to discuss and use many of these strategies and examples first hand, and thelessons learned from trainers´ and colleagues´ experience have made us appreciateand be aware of why I’m including certain exercises in the lesson and what benefitsthey can offer.
For the first exercise, the Icebreaker, I had 2 worksheets, the first one with imagesabout activities saying How many people can...? in each image (see WORKSHEET1). Students cut and take one card with an image and ask themselves if they havethe ability to do the activity that appears in the card. example: Can I write a horse?. After they will do a chart , the names of the columns are going to be “NAME / CAN /CAN’T”. Then each student is going to ask his/her partners about if they can or can’tdo that activity. Every one has to ask another partner. This was a nice exercise, asthe individual was meeting what the others are able to do or what abilities do theyhave, so it motivated them to express and talk about themselves. I explained thatverbs in those cards, they already learned in level 1, plus are the most common used
verbs in English. Images can be a good way to remember vocabulary and manypeople find it an easier way to learn and remember verbs.
We now opened the books (p.67) and individually the students looked at the 5pictures and read the talent that those people have, asking to their partners about if they have those talents. This was checked in groups. This social strategy, helpingand learning from each other, not only benefits group cohesion, but promotesautonomous learning. I now asked two students to read aloud the first vocabulary“talents and abilities” on p.71(see attachment p.), which explain that concentrating onwords in the text we know, or pictures accompanying texts can help us “solve theproblem”. Reading these aloud gave the students time to think the information and
reflect if he or she has these talents or abilities (which can be found throughout thebook). In plenary we read the sentences and discussed which verbs or parts of thepictures had helped in the matching process. New vocabulary was explained. Thenext exercise (p.68), discussing in pairs which personality do they have, allowed thestudents to use the vocabulary and express personal opinions and their personalityadjectives. Each student then repeated 1 sentence. As this is a medium group, wecan work more often in plenary, but I use pair work a lot, as peer help can be astrong motivating factor. Also students have the possibility to formulate answers in a“closed” atmosphere, before presenting ideas in a big group. This is particularlyadvantageous for the shy or weaker students. Another advantage is that students arerecycling and using the vocabulary and all students are involved. We followed up with
ex. WORKSHEET 2_7A a circumlocution exercise, finding words in the texts with thesame meaning as the explanation. I reminded my students that they often won´t
33/100
7/29/2019 Task 4.6(part 3)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/task-46part-3 34/100
know or remember the exact word they are looking for, but they can describe whatthey need by using other words they know.
We now looked at the vocabulary “personality adjectives” box on p. 68 and I askedone student to read the instructions aloud. As these vocabulary had already beenused and discussed in the reading and picture exercise above, there were noproblems understanding them. All the students had also covered modal CAN/CAN’T
in present and short answers earlier on in their learning process. However, Iexplained how questions are formed with the modal CAN/CAN’T in present. I tried tokeep the rules and terminology simple. I didn’t want the students confused andoverwhelmed by difficult terms they couldn’t grasp or understand. I told the studentsthat the verb can be use to express their talent, only they have to use the modal inpresent.
As a consolidation exercise we played with the WORKSHEET 3 “Take a challenge”. Itold the students that each would have to interview to five partner and dare them todo the challenge of the worksheet 3. They could ask questions about their partnersabilities, but would only get short answer responses. Before we started, I gave the
worksheet 3 to each student. At this level it’s important to give students time togather their talents. I circulated and gave help where required. We circulated, askingquestions to try and guess the talent that they have. I always join in these “extraactivities”. It is not only a good opportunity to monitor whether the structure has beenunderstood and can be employed, but also shows the students that you are a part of the group. Using games in the classroom is a firm favorite with all the students. Itencourages them to use the language, it’s motivating, all the students are involvedand engaged emotionally and it’s fun.
To conclude I asked each student to write down the talents that they have or found inthis class, using ex. WORKSHEET 3 as an example. I circulated, asking students to
look again at any question forms with mistakes. It’s important to give students theopportunity to correct their own mistakes, as this makes them reflect on what they’velearned and helps them to monitor their progress. Where students were unable tocorrect errors, I helped and explained again where necessary. Each student nowread his/her talents and the others tried to guess what common activity do they do.
The homework, another consolidation task, was the home study exercises fromWORKBOOK (see p. 67 of workbook) and I told the students I would be looking for volunteers to be interviewed the following week. The students could then writesentences they were prepared to talk about or decide “not to talk” if they so wished.This group has never been shy about joining in, but I want my students to know that
they are not being “forced” to do something. Learning English is a “fun” even they aretalking and using it without notice.
6. Conclusions
I think this lesson contained a variety of exercises for revising the modalCAN/CAN’T in present. The examples using pictures or images for auxiliaryverbs and short answers appealed to the students and I hope helped them to
understand the structure. Giving them the opportunity to personalize thesubject and talk about something “real” and interesting to each of themmotivated them to expand the discussions, as well as promoting group
34/100
7/29/2019 Task 4.6(part 3)
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/task-46part-3 35/100
adhesion. Using visual aids is also very popular in this group. It helps themremember and produce vocabulary, without inhibiting their own input. I alsobelieve this lesson motives our student to identify their talents or their abilitiesin a personal and professional way.
7. Self Evaluation
I tried to make this lesson interesting and fun, providing material with colorsand images which would appeal to all learner types and promoting learner autonomy wherever I could. I attempted to encourage the students to use thegrammatical structure as a communicative tool to help them complete the taskin hand. However, I have established that errors continue to be made and Iintend to include exercises in the future to practice this grammatical form.

The group meets on Monday mornings between 9:30 and 11:10 a.m. Thecourse book is OpenMind 1. The reasons for joining the course were toaccredited their English class but also communicate with friends abroad, for being able to have a normal conversation about their abilities, places, their lives in the past and their plan in the near future.
As there are no new students this term and all know each other well, thetheme of other countries/other people is a great topic to get everyone talkingagain after the holidays.

d)
e)Procedure
Before the lesson began, I wrote the topic “different countries, differentcultures” on the board and pasted some images with traditional customs fromdifferent countries. I then walked around the group letting each student take 1county card WORKSHEET 4, which I was holding face down. I asked thestudents to circulate and find the partners in their group. This exercise wasintended to awaken the students´ interest in the theme, which it did, and theyquickly found their partners and sat down in groups.
The next step was to complete the word wheels with things the groupsassociated with their culture cards. They will have to find different clothing thatcommon people use in these countries. I wanted the students to initially reflect
on their own culture. This is not always easy as we often see and do things atan unconscious level, but it´s our cultural background, experiences and valueswhich make us see and do things in a certain way. It was interesting to seethat all groups mentioned the usual stereotypes associated with Mexico. Thenthey present those images to the rest to group and explain the differentclothing that wear in the different countries.
I now spread out a variety of pictures on a central desk (p.15-19) and thestudents gathered around. I asked “have you worn to any of these clothing?”and “what did you notice about the country and the people?” There were somevery interesting observations and the students were reflecting on similarities
and differences to their own culture, using comparatives adjectives andthis/that/these/those adjectives. At this stage, I kept correction of the grammar element to an absolute minimum, repeating what the student said, in thecorrect form, as part of the conversation only where understanding wouldotherwise be difficult. Thus the conversation flow continued smoothly and thestudents were not inhibited in any way.
The students returned to their seats and we looked at the grammar structure inmore detail with the help of the transparency (p. 78-79) I had also copied thisfor the students as a grammar sheet, so that they could make notes or comments as they wished. I tried to keep the rules and terminology simple. Ididn´t want the students confused and overwhelmed by difficult terms theycouldn´t grasp or understand. I also hoped that the use of different colours todemonstrate how the two tenses are formed would help students understandand remember the rules.
I believe that vocabulary named “adjectives for describing gadgets” should bea means for communicating. It is therefore important to take time to practicethe structure in a meaningful context. For the next exercise the studentsworked in pairs, asking each other about some clothing or objects that theyowned (p.81). Here the students recognised the importance of “adapting”themselves to different cultural situations. One said he “used simplifiedlanguage” to make it easier for both sides to communicate. All agreed that it isimportant to find out something about the country and people and understandwhat different clothing and objects wear and use. They had all experienced

e)Procedure
You can find this topic in the chapter III Learn from the past for a better future(Unit 11) was work and in this lesson we looked at “Great lives” (attached at p.107). A good part of this lesson directly follows the lesson layout of theTeacher’s Guide. This book is an invaluable selection of guidelines and tips,which not only facilitate lesson planning, but has helped me to improve myclasses everyday, giving me strategies to improve in my teaching techniques.During UT’s term, the English academy has been able to discuss and usemany of these strategies and examples first hand, and the lessons learnedfrom trainers´ and colleagues´ experience have made us appreciate and beaware of why I include certain exercises in the lesson and what benefits they
can offer.For the first exercise, the icebreaker, paste different pictures of the whiteboard(Luciano Pavarotti, Selena Quintanilla, Indira Gandhi, John E. Kennedy, JuliusCaesar, Florence Griffith-Joyner) page 107. Each group wrote the name of those characters, the reason of death and the important event or actions thatthey are recognized and talk about with rest of their partners.
We opened the books (p. 109) and individually the students looked at SteveIrwin’s biography and read it, after they had to answer them (multiple choices).These questions could be checked in pairs. This social strategy, helping andlearning from each other, not only it is a benefit of knowledge, but it promotes
autonomous learning. We ask to student to read aloud the language context“The real crocodile Hunter”
The next step is clarify the meaning of new vocabulary through the use of different means and we are able to check our students have understood(p.110) with this vocabulary we can manage the class effectively in a widevariety of context taking into consideration the learnes’ needs and level of thelanguage competence as well as mixed abilities.
After that, we can use a variety of exercise types and example, students gettogethers in groups of 4 and read page 111, they should answer all the
question trivia, an example What famous tenor died in 2007? etc. they sharetheir answer and we give them instructions to close book and be prepare toplay a trivia game. Each team ask one question to another team, and they willhave 30 seconds to answer it correctly and get one point.
Then we open the book on page 112, and we review grammar points “Objectpronouns”, we use slides and present a chart showing the grammar aboutobject pronouns and we also show the differences between subject pronounsand object pronouns. After students will work by pairs and choose oneimportant person, who is recognized for their inventions or actions in the past.They are going to do a biography about this important person and they are
going to present in front to their partners using all grammar points (verbs inpast and object pronouns) and vocabulary.

PLANNING AND EVALUATIONTo conclude I asked the students to tell us the reason about why these peoplewhere mode role for them and explain what attitudes are they having.
6. Conclusions
I think this lesson encouraged students to know and what is their purpose inlife, what attitudes they should have it if they want to be a successful people intheir careers, It also helps to students to learn a little bit of history using newvocabulary and verbs regulars and irregulars in past. I believe that this lessonimprove students to take care about their actions and attitudes to help them inthe future, we finish our class telling students, if they want a better future, theyshould know the past event to not do the same mistakes.
b) Self Evaluation
I try to do this lesson authentic, using pictures in a language classroom, givestudents difficult classroom situations, encouraging and motivating thestudents to learn and use the language and I also incorporate learning taskand activities which encourage and facilitate learner autonomy and take intoaccount learners’ learning styles and cultural expectations.

This area covers a wide range of needs that learners need, specially theadvanced students. For this area it is necessary to provide social forms wherelearners could face difficult situations. It is necessary that learners establish amicro peer teaching, where they are going to learn by interacting with classmates.Media e-learning is important in order to complement their knowledge. Other
techniques as materials use and pronunciation training are required to cover thecognitive development that learners need. The teacher has to play as a counselor and lead the students into an environment of awareness of the language,
11. Description of class and course
This, material is designed for learners in a level 2 course. Most of the learners arestudents between the ages of 17 and 24, with some age exceptions.
The class is focused on let the learners use the present progressive for futureplans. For this reason it is necessary to make a review of the present progressivetense, and then establish the link with the future. Thus, students are going to beable to express future plans by making use of time expressions.
The book needed for this class is open mind 1 from Macmillan editorial; coveringthe unit 12, page 118.

Future tense with present progressive.
13. Aims of the lesson
- Describing definite plans and arrangements
- Talking about intentions and resolutions- Describing personal learning plans.
- Making suggestions.

- To let students know about the usage of present progressive for future,and clarify their doubts
- To let students establish communication patterns where they could makesome future arrangements.
- To motivate and encourage the students to experiment with the language.
- To promote learner autonomy.
15. Procedure
The utsv is focused on communicative approach development; which isachieved through a constant interaction between students. This topic is
focused in the unit 12, “In the near future” (p. 118). In this section learnershave to make use of the present progressive to express future actions. Theyalso have to make plans by using time expressions. It is necessary to reviewthe present progressive and provide more vocabulary in order to let theminteract in a context. The first thing to do is remember the structure andcharacteristic of the present continuous, by adding “ing” to the verbs.
The first exercise is an icebreaker. All the students must be organized in ahorseshoe form. The main idea is practicing the present continuous tense. Theactivity consists in creating a story. The teacher has to provide the first idea bysaying a sentence in present progressive. Example, “I am going on vacations
next holiday”, then the first student has to continue this idea with another sentence in present progressive; example, “and I´m visiting Paris”. The nextstudent has to continue with this idea with another sentence in presentprogressive, and so on. The idea is having fun by making mention of not verycommon situations.
Then, it is necessary a small introduction about how the present progressive isrelated to the future tense. The next activity is in the book (p.118). In order toclarify the topic, it is necessary that students listen a conversation in this page,and make a full inferring about the usage of the present progressive for futureplans. The conversation also shows a few time expressions that students
could use. After this activity, it is necessary a quick review about the topic sofar, it is necessary to have a small feedback and clarify the grammar. After that, they have to continue working with the rest of the activities of the page.Once they finished, the teacher provides clarification and mistakes correctionson the activities, more feedback time is required to answer to learners´ doubts.
After the questions, each student has to work on the attachment activity (Unit12A activity). They are going to see some pictures, and then they have to putthem in the table below as a schedule. After they finish, they have to “invite” toa classmate that has available time in his/her schedule time table. They haveto use specific questions in order to know what she/he is doing a specific day.
The activity finishes when the learner has a full schedule table.

This course is a B1 course. Where students will be able to understand anduse the present progressive to talk about their plans in the future. They willnote the different between verbs ending in -y and -ing correctly and also willbe able to understand and use going to talk about future intentions.

Thislesson improve students to talk about some of their personal futures plansusing sequencing words (first, then, next, etc) to connect ideas.
Topic: In the near future. What are your plans in the near future?
Theme and motivation
The real motivation for this course was the students start thinking about their personal future plans and make conscience about their long and short goals inlife. We believe that it is a success lesson because our students get moreinteresting about their future and also they put times and form to their purposeor goals in life. It will help our students to describing definite plans andarrangements, talking about their students and resolutions, describingpersonal learning plans and making suggestion.
We believe that the students will be motivated when they define their personalplans and learn from them and as teachers we can help them to use differentresources and sources to get clear their goals. how much effort did thosetalent people did and attitudes they had when they did such amazingdiscovers.

d)Procedure
You can find this topic in the chapter III Learn from In the Near future (Unit 12)was worked (attached at p. 117). A good part of this lesson directly follows thelesson layout of the Teacher’s Guide. This book is an invaluable selection of guidelines and tips, which not only facilitate lesson planning, but has helpedme to improve my classes everyday, reflect and draw conclusions fromobservations and self-observation in order to gain a better understanding of the teaching situation and validate, bring changes to and improve my wonteaching, put forward ideas on how to ensure continuos professionaldevelopment, receive and make use of feedback on my teaching performance.During UT’s term, the English academy has been able to discuss andincorporate the systematic sharing of ideas to promote best practice.
For the first exercise, the icebreaker, ask the students what their plans for thenear future, example for this evening, or next weekend. Ask them to work inpairs and make a list of the things they plan to do. Don’t expect them toproduce any future forms here (present progressive or going to) If they writethings like (dinner with friends on friday night, this is sufficient at this point).Have the students look at the statements again and think about members of their family of their friends. Have them work in pairs and talk about their familyand friends in this way: My sister always plans everything very carefully, butmy friends do not make plans.
Present slides to the students and remind them of the form of the presentprogressive: the verb be + the -ing form of the verb and remember to them itwill be used for future arrangements. We opened the book (p. 118) andindividually the students choose a present progressive sentence from theconversation in this page and write it on the board. Elicit the same sentenceusing different pronouns. Focus on the contractions of the verb to be. Ask thestudents to read the conversation again and underline all the examples of thepresent progressive. Elicit the answers from the class, emphasize that we usethe present progressive for the future to talk about plans that are definite.
The next step have the students look at the picture (p. 119). Ask somequestions to set the scene (probably at one of their homes, in their lateteens/early twenties, they look relax, etc). Tell the students that they will hear a conversation between the two people in the picture and that some words aswell as the singular, as these are the ones which are heard in the recording.Check the meaning and pronunciation of these words, chorally andindividually. Encourage the students to write the key words. Tell the studentsto listen for the extra syllable in the words in the left hand and have thestudents repeat the words, firs chorally and then individually. Encourage themto practice saying just hose words first, focusing on the difference inpronunciation when the verb ends in consonant y + -ing.
After that, we can open the book (p.120) read the instructions and the three
target phrases to the class. Tell the students that these are three verycommon, useful expression that use the verb go. Read the instruction to theclass. Refer the students to the grammar table, and point out the future form

with going to. Elicit that it is always proceeded by the simple present form of be and followed by the base form of the verb, tell the students should practicein the worksheet 12A, tell them the difference between the present progressiveand going to when talking about future plans. Tell students that we use thepresent progressive when the plans are definite. Emphasize that we use thegoing to form to express plans in the form of intentions (things that we strongly
want to do).
Finally ask the students to keep their books closed. Elicit from them whatdifferent skills they have practiced while suing this book. Elicit speaking,reading, listening, and writing. Ask them which of these skills is the easiestand which is the most difficult, and shy. Then ask them what general areas of language they have practiced. Elicit grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation. Ask them which of these they think is the most important, and why. Finally,have them say which skills and areas of language they like the most/least andwhy. (p. 124 & worksheet 12B)
5. Conclusions
I think this lesson encouraged students to know and what is their purpose inlife, what plans they have in life, make future intentions about them andidentify them in short and long terms. The students can understand and usethe present progressive to talk about the future, can understand and use goingto to talk about future intentions, use some phrases with go, use start and stopwith gerunds (-ing words) to talk about intentions. They can say verbs endingin -y + -ing correctly. Students can use sequencing words as first, then, next,ect to connect ideas and the most important they can evaluate their strengthsand weaknesses and make plans for improvement.
6. Self Evaluation
I try to do this lesson authentic, using slides in a language classroom, givestudents difficult classroom situations, encouraging and motivating thestudents to learn and use the language and I also incorporate learning taskand activities which encourage and facilitate learner autonomy and take intoaccount learners’ learning styles and cultural expectations. I also incorporatethe systematic sharing of ideas with colleagues to promote best practice andaccess the relevant support systems that will enable me to develop further andfind solutions to my teaching problems. One of the most important facts, I putforward ideas on how to ensure continuous professional development.

· How would you manage the feedback-discussion? Write down the mostimportant rules.
- Feedback discussion must be covered by following the most important pointson the topic.
- It is important to consider every comment as something important; it is notallowed to minimize any participation.- To avoid conflict generated by differences in the points of view.- To provide time to every participant equally.-To manage the discussion by making direct questions about learners´understanding.-Making proper correction on the possible misunderstandings presented bylearners- To conclude the topic with brief and general feedback about the topic.
· What happens if the trainee fails? What advice would you give him/her?First of all, it is important to have a record of his/her performance, could be achecklist, a video recording, a report, etc. Based on this, clarify the strongpoints and weaknesses that the trainee has to cover. It is important to makethe observation process as clearer as possible. Then, it is necessary toprovide examples of good techniques that the trainee could use to improvethe performance.
· What can the trainee do, if he does not accept the feedback of the trainer The best solution would be requesting for the evidence of the observationprocess that provided the feedback. If that is not enough, it would be goodhaving a second opinion, or even doing the observation again; only if it isnecessary.
· Is a second visit possible? With the same trainer?It would be possible if it is necessary; only if the results and the evidence arequestionable, or if it is necessary to make a deeper analysis on the performanceof the trainee.It is not recommended that the same trainer covers the observation; this wouldbe taken as personal. The best solution is to have a second opinion in order tocorroborate or deny the first feedback.
