On 22nd January 2021, I watched an Adult ESL video. I could relate this session to the Direct Method of language learning & teaching.
Reflections
- The session started with some apparels displayed in the class. The instructor used visual aids to clear meaning. Students loved the apparel store setup in the classroom. They were laughing, enjoying & learning while doing role modeling. Students spoke as if they were in real settings. Grammar was taught inductively.
- The objective of using the target language was accomplished. What fascinated me the most was creating a real-life setup in a class. It broke the monotony of everyday classroom and made learning very interesting, easy and fun.
