Programmed Learning in English
Programmed Learning in EnglishThe most common problem I see with almost all students I work with, is that they are not getting enough programmed learning in English. Most of them are not being taught by native English speakers. To really have fun with the subject and to really learn, you need to have some natural learning by native speakers.If you can get your students to do some programmed learning in English, then you can get a better chance at teaching them to read well. Since so many people in this country do not read, and if they don't read at all, how can you expect to teach them?To really learn anything in English, you need to have good reading skills. So, if you cannot read, how can you expect to teach students how to read? The reason for this is the way in which our education system trains us.Reading is one of the first things we are taught in school. This is where we learn to use our vocabulary, read the words and phrases we hear and use them to help us form new words and p hrases. Learning reading is a very important skill, so it is essential that we get more practice in that area.One way to teach students how to read better is to give them some English reading practice. Since so many students do not read at all, they don't really know what reading looks like, but if you can point out how to do it, they will know.Sometimes, a student is unable to attend classes because they are in a wheelchair or some other disability. It makes it difficult for them to attend a full-length class. But, you can get your students to participate in some short reading courses, that allow them to participate in the class and learn.The good news is that if they cannot attend the class, they can take notes while you are talking. What happens when the notes are added up will help them understand what you are saying. A program that provides that experience will really help them in their English classes.Learning English is not easy. However, it is a great skill to have. Why not give your students some ideas on how to increase their reading skills, so they can improve their reading comprehension.
