Learning English as a second language


Learning English as a second language

If we take a look to the past, and we think about our experiences at school, a lot of thoughts flourish in our minds and of course one of these thoughts is related with the role of the teachers into the classroom and how they used to teach the lesson class. There are lots of contradictory researches about this topic but it is something that we have to read about and learn about from our own experiences. Now I will focus on the benefits of learning English as a foreign language.

First of all, we need qualified teachers to impart correct English lessons, I believe that the role of the teacher must be not only as an authority, but also as friendly and reliable educator that teach using different methods always thinking in that every student is different in the way how they learn. The combination teaching-learning is one of the most difficult jobs to accomplish, the reason? Students and teachers have to stay in the same channel; it must to be a connection between them, a relationship full of good communication, respect, trust and of course the teacher has to inspire confidence among his/her students.

Furthermore, I think that English as a second language should be learned in a comfortable place, a place where students can feel the liberty to share their own ideas, expressing emotions, open to the new knowledge and eager to learn every day. On the other hand, teachers have the mission to enrapture the students class by class, because this way the teacher always will count with an important factor: MOTIVATION, the best tool to execute a successful English class.

To sum up, learning and teaching English as a second language is not a simple procedure, it’s a long process in where every step count, every error is a tool to improve the ability to learn English, every students have the right to learn, a process in where the evaluations are constant and individually and of course a process that the teacher is the most important referent about this language, a model for his/her students, a mediator between the students and the  learning knowledge, the teacher is the person who create with love and variety his/her lessons, lesson full of contents, but always through of effective methods and techniques.
