Well for me as future teachers we have to identify different ways to help students to improve their knowledge for example in chapter 4 an important point said: Identify in what level are our students; in that way we are going to have a better idea about what kind of students we have. It is important to know about their knowledge sometimes we can have problems with that, but is our obligation to identify their level and give them the necessary to find the elements to learn in a better way.
In chapter 12 focusing in language we can help our students to identify errors and at the same time correct them.
In dealing with errors, teachers often look for correction techniques that, rather than simply giving students the answer on a plate helps them to make their own corrections.
Students need a guide to correct their errors they are humans and when they learn a new language tend to make a lot of mistakes; as their teachers we have to help them in that way they will learn more effectively and productively a new language.
*How would you deal with error correction in your classroom?
Well as in chapter 12 said there are different kind of errors that teachers and students can correct in class for example; self-correction, student-student, teacher-student, small groups, all class, course book, and reference book. In my opinion each one have a good grade of advantage, but I would elected teacher-student and reference book because these could be a good possibility to correct some mistakes; these could be the better source to get information because commonly teachers know the better way to correct errors and books give the opportunity to students to find themselves possible solutions to correct their own errors.
I think that all students have the same capacity to identify and correct their errors as future teachers we have the obligation to help them to improve the way that our students learn; we can give them the elements necessaries to resolve different situations that will present in the classroom.
*What seems to be more difficult: teaching teens or teaching large classes?
In my opinion to teach to large classes could be more difficult to teach teens because you have the disadvantage that in a large group there are a lot of people that you cannot controlled, and teens can be better controlled, and they mind could be better managed. Sometimes teenagers obey rules and large groups not. Large groups could a lot of problems and we can not apply some techniques necessaries to teach.
