Mon, 13 May 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Traditional Approach Comparing to The Modern Point of View Towards Teacher's Part in Teaching In traditional teaching, teachers are not only the teachers of teaching content, the controller of the teaching process, the organizer of the teaching activities, the judges of the students' academic achievements, but also the absolute authority.

Fri, 24 May 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences One More View on Consistent Lesson Planning This is different thoughts on this as with on one hand some people say that it makes the lesson too rigid and on the other side other people say that it is essential for every teacher to do. I have been teaching English for about 3 years now. I feel I have improved in different areas of my teaching. The area that I have noticed the biggest change in over the course of those 3 years is my lesson planning.

However, after a while, I got to speak to my fellow teachers and they introduced me to the importance of lesson planning and how to do this the proper...  [Read more]

Tue, 15 Oct 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Alumni Experiences Traditional Point of View on The Teaching Job According to the Merriam Webster dictionary, a teacher is defined as one who teaches or ones whose occupation is to instruct. A good definition however in today's society I believe that the teacher's role has more meaning and is not that simple. And as the years go by it has continued to grow.

The role of a teacher not only fosters the growth in students academically but also provides mentoring, role modeling and several other components.

Fri, 22 Nov 2019 Elizaveta Pachina Teaching Ideas Drilling as an Effective Learning Technique in the ESL Classroom The word 'drilling' in education refers to a teaching technique in which the teacher creates a certain pattern or structure to be practiced repeatedly by the students, for them to ultimately develop a system where they may identify and use the pattern or structure independently. Drilling as a technique has been put to use in teaching almost all subjects, but its efficacy has been particularly acknowledged in the field of language teaching, for training students in both pronunciation as well as grammar. However, just as it has been lauded for being a foolproof system of making students 'practice' a language, drilling has also been criticized for being a mechanical and...  [Read more]
