Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2006 in the subject English - Pedagogy, Didactics, Literature Studies, grade: 2,3, University of Kassel, course: Introduction to English as a Foreign Language (EFL) Teaching Methodology, language: English, abstract: Since we are studying to become future teachers of English, it is really important to teach the "so-called ́four skills`- listening, speaking, reading and writing" (Brumfit, 1984, p.103). This term paper will only deal with two of the four skills, which are listening and speaking. Both of these skills need to be learned and require active behaviour. This term paper starts off by introducing the reader to the topic of teaching listening, continues by explaining the characteristics of listening situations, learner problems with listening and different listening activities which can be used at school. Furthermore, it gives a definition of speaking, how to teach speaking at school, some important speaking methods and learner problems. The next topic is the oral presentation itself and what we did in class, which tasks we gave to the other students, which aims we wanted to achieve and how everything worked out. In the final conclusion we want to show what we learned while we prepared our presentation and actually presented it in class. Some problems that occurred in class and how we could have improved the organisation of the presentation and the get involved part will be mentioned as well. We finish our paper with the attachment and the bibliography.

This book was released on 2014-08-05 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thesis (M.A.) from the year 1998 in the subject Didactics for the subject English - Pedagogy, Literature Studies, Nova Southeastern University, language: English, abstract: The objective of this paper is to find solutions or strategies for the classroom instructor that will enhance students’ skills in oral practice, and will fulfill the curriculum objectives outlined to the faculty staff by the target school. The target school serves its local community which consists of mostly Hispanics. The semester for each level of study, lasts for one month. Within this month of instruction, the students have to complete and improve their listening and oral skills through the use of grammar, listening, and oral exercises which are supplemented by audio and visual aids, but directly instructed and guided by a classroom teacher. The problems that the target school faces lies in the discrepancies found on the test results of the exit examination compared to classroom performance results. The target group passes the examination given at the school with average marks, but due to the beliefs of the administration, those scores can be considered close to failing.
