I am really finding it difficult to understand coding.
-
O'Hara Teah made a comment
I want to learn python as a career programmer because I have passion for Computer Science and python is one of the Languages that is used for coding, so as an emerging computer scientist, it's prudent that I have basic understanding on python so I can become a better programmer.

Vandalark R. Patrick is my role model. He's a motivational Leader and an advocate who stood against the tyrannical and corrupt of Liberia first female president, Madam Ellen Johnson Sirleaf.

This course is very important and I have learn a lot about EMI.

Talking to the student and sharing experience is the best option to limit their expectations.

If such saturation happen in my class, I will teach the student about diversity and inclusion.

If someone tries to monopolize a discussion, there are ways to interrupt them, and it can be done by giving them a concluding time but in a honorable way.

O'Hara Teah made a comment
Like I always said, English is the mother's Language in my country so it's not difficult. Could you is polite, but my my setting, teacher are more respected than student's parents. Sometimes when students misbehave at home, their parents take them to their teachers on campus to discipline them so using could you is my setting is normal but not wise.

O'Hara Teah made a comment
Major issue that stops student from participating in classes is, not appreciating their little contribution made to a topic. Students to be more interactive when we make the classes open by giving group assignment.
-
O'Hara Teah made a comment
I am glad to be part of this course.
-
O'Hara Teah made a comment
This week was very educative.
-
Firstly, the students should know that English is not his first Language so their expectations can be managed, and thereafter, improve your English.
-
If such saturation is in my class, I will do a survey to know the students who are facing difficulties and reach out to them.
-
O'Hara Teah made a comment
To manage a large class not that easy but not difficult as well. I am from a setting where classes have about 150/200 students each in public schools and some of the methods to give a group discussion, Assignment/ project.

Body Language is use by majority of the population in my surrounding. It's traditional that people use body language while communicating. The gestures, eyes' contact are something's that are regularly use by people who are educated or uneducated. Sometimes, people use body languages to communicate with out a verbal communication.
-
O'Hara Teah made a comment
Body Language and Eye contact are significant in teaching because its creates an environment for the students to be eager to listen and learn. Even if they were distracted, an eye contact has the proclivity to put them on track. Your body language also create an awareness that indeed an instructor is in class. Without these attributes, the classes become boring.
-
O'Hara Teah made a comment
I hope to learn new things relative to EMI.
-
O'Hara Teah made a comment
Thanks for the commendation.
-
Partly in agreement but as a teacher, the students perception is that you should be bettered than them academically, so if English is not an instructor first language, it's advisable that he/she takes an English course to avoid future embarrassment.
-
If any of my colleagues fall in a saturation of such, I will advise that they make more research and improve their English to avoid similar Situation in the future.

I am interested in this course because my County in Liberia is very rich with nature resources and the mining companies that are operating there are creating serious health hazard in the area so I am studying courses that will expand my horizon in nature resources.

Pronunciation is important especially when you are teaching a student whose English is not their first language.
-
O'Hara Teah made a comment
I agree with the ideas expressed especially the distinction between Native Speaker English, and Native Speaker of English.
-
O'Hara Teah made a comment
The tip given by Rob is very insightful. Many students here in my Country complain on some teachers from India at the Blue Crest University. There pronunciation doesn't suit the listening ear our the Liberian's students whose first language is English.

O'Hara Teah made a comment
Communication in speech is different from communication in writing. Some people are good are communicating through speeches while other are better writers than speaker.

O'Hara Teah made a comment
In public speaking, the tone matters a lot. Speaking very slow and monotonous can be boring to the audience no matter how inspiring the messages are.

I think and I feel have distinction. I think can be use in a critical argument or to express a logical opinion, while I feel doesn't express an opinion. It's a feeling, Sense or emotion.

If my student speaks better English than me, I will have no option but to make more research.

English as an international language can be spoken in all professional environments. Most importantly, in an academic setting, I will like my student to speak standard English.

Students should use standard English in an academic environment.. Native English spoken when a student is in a learning curve...

I will like to talk on the open budget initiative that was introduced by Minister Amara Conneh during the regime of president Ellen Johnson Sirleaf. The open budget initiative allowed the Citizen to know exactly what is in the Budget and to know if there is a surplus or shortfall in the Budget.

Today’s artificial intelligence market is not easy to quantify.
