I have learned the names of different methods and techniques of language teaching. I have also realized that in order to have a successful lesson, it is best to combine all of them, when possible, so that students are not bored and in order to ensure that they learn as much as possible. Engaging students is one of the greatest challenges and I find the examples provided in this unit extremely useful because sometimes, I simply forget what teachers have at their disposal when it comes to elicitation orstudy stages.
I have also learned the difference between mistakes and errors, and have been reminded to reply to students' responses positively (instead of saying 'No' I should say 'You are close').
The Activate Stage is something I was particularly focused on as I sometimes omit it or do not have enough time, but it is crucial for learning a language and students enjoy being engaged in these activities. All stages are equally important. The teacher must somehow link them or make the connections or relations and ensure the lesson flows smoothly.
