Teaching reading.

Reading is an interactive process that goes on between the reader and the text, resulting in comprehension. The text presents letters, words, sentences, and paragraphs that encode meaning. The reader uses knowledge, skills, and strategies to determine what that meaning is.




Both teacher and students need to know some rules and strategies at the time to read, if the teacher want to encourage his/her student to read; it is necessary to provide them readings about their likes, for example: novels, short stories, tongue twisters, poems, verses, magazines, and so on. Another strategy that can be used is to give the students a piece of paper with a word at the beginning of the class, in which they can give a little information about that or infer something from it. 

Teaching writing.

Cohesion and coherence are the most important points in any written text, being cohesive and coherent means that the writer has to give sense and clarity to a text joining sentences, words and ideas; by using synonyms, pronouns and transitional words.

Teachers must encourage the students to write because some of them do not like to write, so the activities that teacher should apply can be: compositions, writing stories and essays but if those activities seems to bored or difficult for them; they can write short texts about a real life situation, the idea is that they can feel free to write and in this way the teacher can check their mistakes. 

Teaching speaking.

Produce fluent speech at different rates of delivery...

What does it means? It means that it is necessary to speak, or to read something in a correct speed, no so slow and no so fast! being fluent does not means that we have to be as fast as we can... fluency in speech is related to speak in a normal way but taking into consideration the tone, rhythm, accent, intonation and stressed patterns and also use pauses when it is necessary. 

What teachers need to do is to involve the students in different situations, in which they can talk freely using their own words, for example: conversations, dialogues, role plays, and oral presentations about a theme they most like; in this way they can be more fluent and can correct and monitor themselves without worries. Besides if the activity is not evaluated it could be better because the students do not get nervous or afraid, and at the end the teacher can give them a feedback about how was his/her presentation and how they can improve it.

Teaching listening!

Listening skills are essential for learning since they enable students to acquire insights and information, and to achieve success in communicating with others.

Listening is one of the fundamental language skills. It’s a medium through which children, young people and adults given a large portion of their education -their information, their understanding of the word, and of human affairs, their ideals, sense of values, and their appreciation.  

For teaching listening, teachers need to develop this skill in the students by applying methods, techniques and promoting many activities that can help them; such as: repetitive drills, podcasts, videos, readings, role plays and so on.
