I like the subject, which every English teacher should be familiar with to know how a language is learnt.

I like the teaching style and learning platform, which are made accessible for every time if we want to study back.

challenges: Honestly, I didn't know well how to draw a syntax tree for Phrase Grouping structure on the link: I feel like it's a bit complicated.

I think that would be better if we can learn more in detail about these topics.

some suggestions: More projects and group work would be done for the purpose of improving peer communication and learning environments.

I enjoyed this class, it was enjoyable and interactive. But what I really like a lot is how we use the whiteboard in this class! I get very excited when we use the whiteboard and using the whiteboard makes me willing to try learning even though I make mistakes

What are the challenges?

The materials in this class are a bit confusing for me sometimes, I am a person who catches things quite slowly, and the complexity of the materials in this class gives me a challenge to understand and memorize quickly.

Some suggestions?

I love the idea of using the whiteboard! it is very fun and interactive, maybe we can also try another way to be interactive?

Suggestions:

From my perspective, it would be best if the class is more focused on the core of the class, which is the linguistics elements. I know that we need to learn all of it since it is "Introduction to Study Language," but it would be more beneficial to learn more about linguistics elements furthermore because it helps us as "English students," especially for those who are new to English.

However, the challenges that I faced will again go back to phonetics (linguistically). I think it takes A LOT of time to practice and learn how sounds are produced, especially to differentiate which symbols make which sounds. Not only that but even though I enjoy breaking down as well as building up words and sentences, those have become a quite challenging task I had to do in this lesson. I still got confused about the classifications of each part of speech or phrase the words should go into, but obviously, it takes time to practice.

Either way, I'm really glad I get to be introduced to the world of linguistics! I used to wonder about language variations in the past, but taking this class gave me a huge knowledge about the world of language. Thank you!!!

the practices! all of the practices really work in bridging and applying what we learn especially where we are given the time to think and discuss to actually comprehend and challenges our mind. The scaling also allows us to further utilize the materials and framework in ways that open my eyes about linguistic.

The challenges:

trying to adapt with the scaling and utilize the website to make the syntax tree. Personally, i have a lot of difficulty tying to process the material at first since it really challenges my pre-existing knowledge and when I still feel like I don't understand there's already a new difficulty which made me feel lost, but I still manage, because I'm a chill guy like that. ✨😎

Suggestion:

MORE PRACTICES! I really like the challenge and the way the practices force my brain to work. Furthermore, I would like a mini quiz recap that is only for checking the student understanding so I, the student, know where I am in terms of my understanding. and aheem... coffee machine aheem... would be nice ahemm...

The challenge that I faced is the materials are A LOT that it made me overwhelmed sometimes. Moreover, I need some time to comprehend each of the materials in order to fully understand them. I also often get switched between one topic to another.

My suggestion for this class is please make more fun activities so students could engage more!

I enjoyed how we learned the materials most of the time through Group work activities then later we presented and shared it with our class because for me it is helpful to do group work because I feel like I'm able to remember the materials that we have discussed together in class.

What are the challenges?

Although many more materials have been given to me throughout this learning journey, I still have some problems with memorizing some materials for instance recognizing the Rules of Word Formation or understanding the syntax rules, etc.

Some suggestions?

It is fun to engage the learning process through presentations or writing on the board, because from that kind of learning process, I, personally, was able to understand or even remember (sometimes) most of the presentations and writings that my classmates have given. So, I would say, please keep up the group presentations and writing in the board activity in the class.
