Thu, 07 May 2020 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas The Different Roles of the Teacher in the English Classroom There is no doubt that a teacher plays a vital role in the classroom. To become a good teacher, the teacher should pay full attention to their teaching and students' learning. In particular, teachers serve many different roles in the classroom rather than just convey linguistic lessons such as Controller, Organizer, Assessor, Prompter, Participant, Tutor, Resource, Model, and Observer. Over the years, there are a great number of changes in the teaching approach along with the learning strategies. The classroom becomes 'student-centered' rather than 'teacher-centered'. This will largely depend on which type of activity and what we wish the students to achieve. Table of...  [Read more]
