Some of the feelings that I observe are loneliness, sadness, mediocrity and boredom. In fact the colours and the props reinforce this feelings.

I´m so glad that you decided to study in the Uk, I´m sure that you´ll find the academic experience interesting and satisfing.

Hi, I found that professor Sheena Gardner defines genre, literature, disciplines and scholarship.
*Genre: type
*Literature: in academic context defines as "sources" to use in writing. Evidence to support what you means.
*Disciplines: subjects
*Scholarship: being able to take what other people know and use it in your work -
Hi, my University has the same way. With a tutor the experience of learning can be more attractive.

Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
Hi,
The tutorials in my universtity are similar. I found interesting if someone can tell me if there is a different way to give a tutorial. -
Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
Hello
The lectures in my University are different, usually the teacher is the unique that speaks. Honestly I like more the way that Omar explain because it gives the chance to learn and know other point of view. -
Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
To be honest I found clearler the definitions of the video. With this information I understant the difference between tutorial and seminar.
-
Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
Hi, these are the definitions that I found.
* LECTURE: a talk to a group of people about a particular subject, especially at a college or university.
*SEMINAR: a class at a college or university in which a small group of students discuss a subject with a teacher.
*TUTORIAL: a lesson in which a student or a small group of students discusses a subject...

Hello, first of all I want to thank you for all the advices that you gave us.
Then I have to practice how tho make short the things that I write in order to focus the attention in the thing that I want.Other thing that I didn´t realized was the use of acronyms, in my mind all the people know the meaning of it.
Have a nice weekend.

@FahimaHashimi it can be the practice. Maybe we can hear, read and write more in the "british way"

@CésarAugustoMedina hi César. I wish that you make great in the exam. The trouble I have is that I write in english in the same way I write in Spanish, sometimes I see the mistakes but other don´t.

Hello, first of all I want to say THANKS. All the information that you gave us is very useful to me. I will practice the pronunciation and the vocabulary with the apps that you mentioned.

I´m in the same situation. In school they taugh me the american english so some words and the pronunciation is very different

this article is very useful to me beacause it helps me to understant the pronunciation of the words, even if it has the same writting. Thanks to share it

Hi, I found that the learner dictionary has more information about the words wich can be useful for the students and the monolingual dictionary only have the meaning of the word. Both can be useful it depends of the situation.
-
Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
I´m agree with Omar also I think thatthe other dictionaries can be useful on specific situations.
-
Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
For me the best is the learner dictionarie because it allow me to continue reading in the language that I´m studing and at the same time I learn other words.

Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
Hello. The first thing I do with the words I don´t know is to understand the context of the paragraph and try to guess the meaning. After I look it up in a dictionary

Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
I realized that one of my weak point is the pronunciation, no of the words, the pronunciation of the people. I think that I need to hear more accents and the way the people speak to accustom my ear

Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
On the video I found my ideas in detail and also other concepts or skills that complement it.
My favorite point is to study with others because it gives to you a wide prespective of things and subjects. -
Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
One thing that I don´t consider about a good student is his ability to look for new experiences. Maybe I consider in a indirect way but not as clear as I watch the video.
Also the order and practice are important things to achive the goals. -
Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
Very useful tips. thanks for sharing

I´m agree with you. With practice and order people can reach this goals

Hello, I´m thinking of the habilities or things that makes a student succesful and I have to say that in my experience as student and as a teacher the grades aren´t the most important thing. For me the most important are learning, comunication and adaptability. With this skills I´m sure that the student will improve fast and will be succesful on his/her area....

Mexico changes every day, with each day our lives become more vertiginous. We have to get out of our houses 2 or 3 hours before the beginning of the school or the job and it is caused by the overpopulation that exists in Distrito Federal.

If the idea is that Enlish is a lingua franca the argument that native or any speaker owns the language has to be eliminate.

One disadvantage that I found is that not all the people have the oppotunity to learn English in the school. At least in my country only the private schools teach a good level of English. Against this there are many options for learn a new language, not only the school, it´s only a matter of time or motivation of the person.
And it´s good that exists a... -

About the idea that says English is a killer of language and culture I think that it is a extreme idea. Kids can learn their native language and English.

Hello, thank you for correct my comment and it doesn´t be bold at all.
About the line course you can talk with the staff of system for program the course according to your needs.
What do you think? -
Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
I never teach an online course before, but if I have to make one it will be able to be practical and interactive. A reduce number of students will afford this situation.

Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
The principal challenge is try to stablish a communication with someone that is not at the front of you.
I took an History course before and it was very different, beginning with the factor that there where a little feedback from the teacher.
Honestly if the course didn´t interest me, I probably leave it. -
Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
It´s true tha online learning offers many benefits, but it depends in the students to take or not the teaching of this method.
In an online course you can find that people are more motivated and confident to finish the course opposite of this the f2f students that go only to pass to the next year. -
I you are in a classroom it allow to have an oral conversation in real time with someone and if you have a doubt, the teacher can answer in the moment. Also the online learn is practice for people who can´t go to a classroom, one reason can be the extend working hours.
If I have the time I prefer a f2f lessons -
And with a social event you have the chance to keep practice
-
I think that the principal difference is the interaction with people. The most important benefit of learning online is that you can manage the time.
I prefer a combination of these two options. -

Hi, in my elementary school I had science in English, at the beginning it was hard to learn a subject in a new language but the teacher made it easy taught us the vocabulary before we saw the theme and after the class she answer the questions.
It helps me to learn new vocabulary and keep practice the language -
Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
I saw video #2, primarily it is a content lesson but with the factor that isn´t in the native language. A class with this characteristics will help the students to learn new vocabulary, keep practice the language and lost the fear to talk.
-
I have experience with CLIL because some of the subjects that were taught were in English (my native language is spanish) and I found it effective. The teacher gave us the new vocabulary before she taught the lesson and always asked if we had a doubt.
Thanks to this method of teaching I learned and understand English in an effective way.

Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
An extra activity always is a good idea to practice and learn new things. It´s true that with this task the grammar presence is latent but the activity also includes vocabulary and composition of the language.

The teacher has an important role during the learning lessons, but the student has the importatn role in all of this. If she of he doesn´t matter it will be impossible that he learn the new language

TBLT is an excellent approach for learning a language beacause an student uses all their skills and knowledge to make the activities, also the way of learning transform in some more active.

The principal difference is that the natural language is something necessary for be accepted and understood inside a community and the classroom learning is optional. It depends of the motivation and the anthusiasm of each student

There are some differences between the classroom (in general) of the video and the classrooms where I took a class. Definitely I would like to be in this class because the teacher encourage the students to particpate and make different activities for practice the languaje. She builds an environment of confindence.
In a considerable number of my classes the... -

An abosolute teory of teching can´t work, each country have different way of thinking, but there are a thing that we can do. Imagine a pyramid, in the base we can put the basic and general concepts and theories of theaching, the next level can contain information per continetns, then per countries and successively. What dou you think?

Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
As well as the individual motivation of learning the support of the classmates is part of the learning environment. With a classmate you can practice the speaking lessons, have a feedback and make more pleasant and interesting the process of learning
-
Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
In a classroom are things that the teacher or a student can control and others that they can´t. For example if most of the students are desinterested and apathetic some of the efforts that the teacher make will not be useful. The motiovation has an important role in this case.

Angélica and Azizul you are right, maybe another option is forget the fear to make a mistake and be more confident

I want yo ask something, in most of the classrooms that I have been the speaking paractice is another bottleneck of the language. It doesn´t matters the level, my classmates refuse to speack in english. What can I or my teacher do for prevent this?
-
Thank you for the video, now the bottleneck hypothesis is completely clear for me. Have a nice day
-
The enviroment is important to learn something, because if you find it boring and tedious it will more difficult to learn the lesson. Also motivation is a poweful element that helps to learn more quickly.

It´s true that all spin around PRACTICE. A person can learn a lot of vocabulary, all the tenses of the verds and the grammatical structure but if she o he not practice all this in a few months she will forget all the knowledge.

Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
It is true that we have a basic ability for language, the only thing that we have to do is practice the new knowledge
-
Laura Méndez Tiscareño made a comment
When I started to learn English I found difficult to learn and undestand all the tenses of the verbs, it includes the grammatical structure but other thing that i found difficult is the speak practice, maybe because I don´t have a person who I can practice.
-
I think that this happen because it´s a lot of new information that the person is learning but one thing that the student can do to overcome the bottleneck is practice all the time he can.
