1-Do You think teaching methods are necesary?
Yes, of course.  Teaching methods are very necessary for students and teachers to have a good teaching-learning relationship because in this way they can use different methods and not just one.

2- Did You feel engaged with any of the teaching methods covered today? Why?
Yes, I did!  I felt engaged to some of them because they were methods that some of my teachers and professors used so that I could learn and understand through them.  So I had a lot of fun memories most of all about elementary school with the suggestopedia method.

3- Can the teaching methods be used in a mixed way? How Many of them do you consider appropiate to mix in class delivery?
If I think they can be mixed, it would be more perfect to mix them.  The methods that I think can be mixed are the Audiolingual method, the direct method, and the suggestopedia method.  I think they make a perfect match for a very entertaining and interesting class.  Perhaps in this way the students have more enthusiasm when receiving their classes.

4-Could You identify the method used by the teacher during the class?
Yes, of course!  The teacher usually uses the 3 methods that I mentioned before.

1. Do you think teaching methods are necessary?
Yes, I consider teaching methods are necessary as they are an important part of the teaching and learning process. For example, it allows students to achieve their goals, specially when it comes to learning a second language. In addition, use the appropriate teaching methods allows teachers to help their students improve and enhance their learning.

2. Did you feel engaged with any of the teaching methods covered today? Why?
Yes, I feel engaged with the Direct Method since I consider this is the one that is most used in our English school by professors and I feel totally identify with it.

3. Can the teaching methods be used in a mixed way? How many of them do you consider appropiate to mix in a class delivery?
Yes,  I consider teaching methods can be used in a mixed way since mixing different learning methods can engage and motivate students' feeling of learning. In my point of view, we can mix the Direct Method with the Task-Based Language Teaching Method. As the first one focuses on the use of the target language avoiding the use of the mother tongue and the second one elicits students to do real-world tasks using the target language, I consider they both can mix to encourage students make an effort in the use of the target language and prepare to real life situations that is a goal for every second language learner.

The methods used for the teacher in today's class were Direct Method (the class was in the target language), and Suggestopedia (roleplay).

1-Of course, the teaching methods allow the students and the teacher to share knowledge in effective, dynamic and creative ways, which makes it possible to teach the classes successfully, therefore they are necessary.

2- Definitely, I felt engaged to the direct method because through this method I managed to understand that it is based on avoiding the use of the mother tongue.  Helping students with different skills such as speaking, reading and writing, also allows them to correct small mispronunciation or mistakes  when speaking, with the help of the teacher or partner.

3-I consider that it is a good idea to use the methods in a mixed way, starting with the method Task-Based language Teaching(TBL) because it will allow students to express themselves and let their skills flow, followed by the Direct Method, so that they can relate better in the target language and can also be added Suggestopedia so that they learn with methodologies that make them feel comfortable and calm.

4-In the presented class we carried out activities such as readings, questions and answers and we also did role play.  All this in the target language , we avoided the use of the mother tongue and we learned a new subject .  This means that the teacher used the Direct Method and Suggestopedia.

1. Do you think teaching methods are necessary?
Yes, I consider they are really important for the development of students in classes because they help them to get engage with the different activities that are carried out, and in that way they benefit the learning process. Teaching methods allow students and teachers to have a better understanding, since they provide distinct tools that help teachers to transmit the knowledge they want in a motivated way.
Besides, I think they are necessary due to learners have the opportunity to get knowledge through them, so they make easier their learning. There are some students that need different techniques for learning about a topic, so teaching methods provide benefits that improve their learning process.

2. Did you feel engaged with any of the teaching methods covered today? Why?
I felt engaged with the direct method as it encourages students to use the target language, which is really helpful because it avoids using the mother tongue to express their ideas. In this way, students develop their listening and speaking skills through the practice of the language, and new grammar and vocabulary are also taught indirectly.
As a student, I consider this method helps us to improve our listening and speaking skills since we are forced to learn the language through practice and the experience that we get when we face the different activities developed with this teaching method.

3. Can the teaching methods be used in a mixed way? How many of them do you consider appropiate to mix in a class delivery?
Sure, I consider they can be mixed in order to provide different strategies that facilitates the learning and development of students in classes. I think that two or three are appropriate to mix in a class.

4. Could you identify the methods used by the teacher during the class?
Of course, I can identify some of them. Generally, teacher use direct method for the development of the classes. As we know, all the conversations and explanation   of the different topics taught, are carried out in the target language which is English. During the classes, we express our ideas, read and develop our listening skills which are some objectives of this teaching method.
Moreover, it is used Communicative Language Teaching, since we are aimed to use the language with the distinct activities that we have to perform during classes.

1. Do you think teaching methods are necessary?

R/: Of course, I consider they are useful due to the great benefits they bring to the learning process. The teacher and students can work amicably side by side to help the students acquire the knowledge they need. They not only facilitate the learning process but also motivate the students to engage in What they are learning in different ways.

2. Did you feel engaged with any of the teaching methods covered today? Why?

R/:Absolutely, many of the methods that my classmates presented in the class were something new, but at the same time, I felt familiar with all of them. I remembered being taught by my school, high school, and college teacher in all those methods. However, there was one that caught my attention the most, it was suggestopedia which is a method that I frequently use when I have to study. It is something that made me feel comfortable and confident when I study is to have music in the background. The interesting thing about suggestopedia is that it introduces grammar and vocabulary in a didactic way combining text and music in the background and they could be with songs, games, etc.

3. Can the teaching methods be used in a mixed way? How many of them do you consider appropiate to mix in a class delivery?

R/: Yes, but using the ones who have and work in almost the same areas or are a bit similar to avoid confusing the students. For example, Suggestopdedia, and Audio-lingual will work very well to help the students in their learning development with a didactic class using different visual aids to motivate them. Another one could be Tak-based Language Teaching and Communicative Language Teaching. In those methods, students can practice their fluency using the target language to communicate. It could be with interviews, role play, and short presentations.

4. Could you identify the ones used for the teacher during today's class?

R/: The teacher used a few of them the ones I can identify were the direct method where the teacher was explaining the class in the target language that we are learning which is English. The other one was Communicative Language Teaching where the teacher assigned a method and we had to work in small groups doing a role-play to characterized the method that we presented.

1. Do you think teaching methods are necessary?

Yes, teaching methods are necessary through them students have a better understanding and really learned the topic in class. Using teaching methods students get involved with the class, so it is easier to catch their attention.

2. Did you feel engaged with any of the teaching methods covered today? Why?

I felt engaged with the direct method because it helps students to think and speak just in the target language. It encourages students to improve their skills by the past of the course. At the end of the class or course have as a result better pronunciation, understanding and fluency in the students.

3. Can teaching methods be used in a mixed way? How many of them do you consider appropriate to mix in a class delivery?

Yes, teaching methods can be used mixed because it creates a dynamic class. I consider that three or two of them can be mixed depending on the duration of the class. An example is Audio-lingual and Total Physical Response (TPR) can be mixed in a class because the teacher use repetition of actions or command that the students have to imitate and do. It depends on the creativity of the teacher to mix the methods to create a dynamic class.

4. The method used by the teacher was direct method as the class was completely in English and the other was Suggestopedia because at end of the class the activity was that each group had to dramatize one teaching method learned in class.

1. Do you think teaching methods are necessary?
Yes, they are very necessary, as the word itself says, they are teaching methods. It is a way to transmit knowledge through educational tools to all people, regardless of age
2. Did you feel engaged in any of the teaching methods covered today? Why?
The method that caught my attention was that of cognositivism, since after doing some research on this, I realized that we have used it in many classes, for example, using quizlet is an example of cognositivism.
3. Can the teaching methods be used in a mixed way? How many of them do you consider appropriate to mix in a class delivery? I feel that not all of them could be combined with each other directly because it would be an overload of activities or information. Perhaps only by choosing the most outstanding characteristics of each one it is possible to create a super method
4. Could you identify the method used by the teacher during the class?
As I said before, we have done many activities that enter into the method of cognositivism, so my answer is that. The method used by the teacher in the class is cognositivism

1- Teaching methods are necessary to improve in daily life. Human beings will be able to learn what others could transmit through their studies and teaching. And it could help people in many areas because of the knowledge gotten by any method used.
2- I felt engaged with the direct method. This system after ending the class could teach me is the best way to learn a newlanguage because it avoids speaking in the native language.
3-  They can be used in a mixed way with a set organization. Perhaps, a good way could be using first Grammar Translation (for those who need to learn in a written form new vocabulary). Then, the learned can be practiced with Audio-Lingual to improve pronunciation and speaking. After that, it is possible to make a basic conversation about the topic using Direct Method during the rest of the class to learn. In this way, I think the intensity is increasing in a positive way for the student to learn.
4- In my point of view, the class had direct method because we speak full English during the class, but also, it was used suggestopedia. We had to dramatize (to learn about the topic and even, it was a nice atmosphere) and, this is a characteristic of this method. That is why I consider the class had two methods.

All learning methods are interesting. For me, the one that caught my attention the most was suggestopedia because it allows creating an attractive environment for students and activities can be carried out that keep students focused on learning the target language.

Can the teaching methods be used in a mixed way? How many of them do you consider appropriate to mix in a class delivery?

Teaching methods can be used in a mixed way because one complements the other one. I consider three of them appropriate to mix in a class delivery, they are Direct method with Audio-lingual and Task- based language teaching.

Yes, I think they are necessary. Teachers knowing the different teaching methods will be beneficial for them because these methods are the steps taken to handle a task. Then, teaching methods will help teachers to adapt, combine, and implement their own ways to teach. Teaching methods are necessary to master the content of the class, while achieving a successful learning. Also, they encourage students to be more productive and collaborative because they may feel engaged in the course.

2. Did you feel engaged with any of the teaching methods covered today? Why?

I felt engaged with the Direct method because it focuses on the use of the target language, avoiding using the mother tongue. It involves different skills like reading, writing, speaking, and listening, so the students can practice the target language all the time. It encourages the students to think in that language. Another fact that caught my attention of this teaching method is that learners figure out grammar rules on their own by practicing the language. Therefore, they develop connections between experiences and language.

3. Can the teaching methods be used in a mixed way? How many of them do you consider appropriate to mix in a class delivery?

Yes, they can be used in a mixed way. For example, the Total Physical Response can be mixed with the Audio-Lingual method because the students follow what the teacher says and does. While the students are listening, rephrasing, and repeating the teacher’s statements, they also are learning new vocabulary with physical movements. Therefore, they can also be mixed with the Task-Based Language Teaching. After learning and comprehending the information, students will complete real-world tasks using their target language.

1. Of course to get great results, there would be a plan to make it possible. That’s why teaching methods is necessary, when you go to a war you need at least a gun; in other words, to be a professional or to teach someone else we have to know about different methods that we have in our hands.

2. Above all, the Total physical response caught my attention. It is interesting how students can learn creating a relationship between the meaning and the language using their bodies for it.

3. The different methods are able to be used mixed in a daily teacher's life to create a didactic learning environment. As an example, you can use the Direct method to be focus on the target language; then use Audio-lingual to reinforce the oral, listening and speaking skills, and finish the class with Suggestopedia to relax the students and learn at the same time. I think those three methods work well together.
