In this unit I have learned about the basis and methodologies of various types of teaching styles, but in particular, the ESA method, and its implementation in a classroom setting. There can be many variations in the order, but essentially the lesson should always start with an "Engaging" activity and end with an "Activation" activity. In the "Engage" stage, the teacher should arouse the interest of the students, and get them into the English mindset. Following that is the "Study" stage, where the more technical aspects of grammar, syntax, pronunciation, correcting of errors, and such are established. Once the instructor feels that the students understand the new lexicon and grammar, then the "Activate" stage begins. In this stage, students are encouraged to use what they know, in addition to the new vocabulary and language they have learned as 'freely' and communicatively as possible. There is no fixed style for ESA. It is open to the flexibility of the instructor and content being taught.
