Problem: Superiority Complex of English Language

Project Suggestions:

> Focus on reinforcing L1 as equal of L2 by giving L1 portfolio requirements that encourage learners to recall the use of English as a means of communication rather than a show of intellect.

> Let learners read translated texts of Filipino to English that still provides Filipino values rather than upholding the use of English texts constantly.

1. Virtual Language Exchange — Through video calls or chat, students can practice conversational skills in a real-world context.

2. Storytelling — Initiate a multicultural storytelling project where students collaborate to create stories in the target language.

Constructive feedbacks and consider the affective filter. If the student is not comfortable with receiving feedbacks in the class, the teacher may write it down on his or her paper or use the correct sentence as an example for your next lesson.

Use situations as an example and divide the sentence into chunks (phrases). It is important for the students to know the meaning of the sentences and how grammar rules help in translating the intended message.

One prevalent issue in modern language classrooms is the lack of authentic language practice opportunities. As an English teacher in the making, here are two solutions to address this problem:

Implementing Immersive Activities

Incorporating Technology.

By incorporating these solutions into language classrooms, learners can experience a more immersive and practical approach to language acquisition, leading to improved proficiency and confidence in using English in real-life situations.

1. Create a video project that showcases various accents to demonstrate the reality of linguistic diversity.

2. Require students to write a letter addressing the public that our accent is in fact one of the sexiest accents in the world.

Solution:

1. Ensure that every students are able to follow the discussion when integrating technology in the discussion.

2. If not, make an alternative ways for the students who cannot access the applications, thus, they will be able to follow and participate in the class.

3. For the school, budget allocation for television and any other technology useful for teaching language in a classroom. Hence, no one will be left behind.

The problem in detail: students are bombarded with tasks that their mindset slowly set in the saying "basta maipasa lang". It was shown that the workload makes them not fully honed their 3Rs.

Suggested solutions:

1. Integrate competencies in an activity. Remember the quality > quantity mindset

2. Planned schedule of activities - have different lessons and activity carefully planned ahead. Evaluating the weight of each and know what to prioritize. But not priority ≠ exclusion.

• Shift the focus to learners in order to increase their engagement and motivation in the learning process.

• Create learner-centered activities where students are able to explore, examine, discover, and reflect on their own learning.

Use diverse language inside classroom, do not limit with one language as it can lead to miscommunication and discomfort between learners.

Use variety of techniques when communicating (e.g visually, body movements, and other non-verbal communication skills)

Build more MTBLE Classrooms

The Philippines is a diverse country, thus the people and the language are diverse as well. Therefore, the government must build more MTBLE classrooms to promote cultural diversity regarding language learning.

Produce more MTBLE resources to generate cultural growth among the learners while they are learning the beauty of language.

1. Proper teacher guidance and ethical regulations: Artificial Intelligence (AI) is already in the market and can be easily accessed by students, but the proper guide and rules for AI could help its proper usage.

2. Maximizing the power of AI through pedagogy incorporation: The Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge (TPACK) can be fostered through the use of AI. There are a lot of AI tools that can serve as an assistive tool for teachers in making a personalized lesson for students. This will be a big help not only for the students but also for teachers.

To address this as a future English teacher, I will:

1. Incorporate authentic materials such as newspapers, articles, videos, and podcasts from English-speaking countries into lessons to expose students to genuine language use.

2. Organize cultural exchange activities where students can interact with native English speakers or engage in virtual exchanges to learn about different cultures and practice language in authentic contexts.

1. What is more realistic right now is letting the students write their papers through the traditional way (pen and paper)

2. Since theres not much strong AI's to compete against ChatGPT's generated content, it's best to just prevent access to AI's right now and collect the students phone during class and bring it back after class

1. One solution could be fostering a positive and encouraging classroom atmosphere. Creating a safe space where students feel comfortable making mistakes can help alleviate their fear of learning English. Encouraging a growth mindset and emphasizing the importance of learning from errors can boost students' confidence and motivation.

2. Another solution could involve incorporating fun and engaging activities into the lessons. Using games, music, movies, and other interactive materials can make the learning process more enjoyable and less intimidating for students. By making English learning enjoyable and relatable, students are more likely to overcome their fear and actively participate in the learning process.

One prevalent problem in modern language classrooms is the lack of opportunities for authentic language use and meaningful communication. Many traditional language teaching methods focus heavily on grammar drills and rote memorization, neglecting the development of practical language skills necessary for real-life communication.

Solution 1: Implement Communicative Language Teaching (CLT) Approach

- CLT emphasizes meaningful interaction and communication in the target language.

- Engage students in various communicative activities such as role-plays, group discussions, information gap tasks, and problem-solving tasks.

- Provide students with opportunities to use the language in authentic contexts, such as through simulations of real-life situations or by integrating technology tools like online language exchanges or virtual reality simulations.

Solution 2: Incorporate Project-Based Learning (PBL)

- Design language learning projects that require students to collaborate, problem-solve, and use language creatively to complete tasks.

- Projects can range from creating multimedia presentations, producing short films or podcasts, organizing cultural events, or participating in community service projects.

- PBL encourages learners to apply language skills in real-world contexts, fostering autonomy and motivation in language acquisition.

By incorporating these solutions into the language classroom, teachers can create a more dynamic and engaging learning environment that better prepares students for effective communication in the target language beyond the confines of the classroom.
