In my opinion, even though the choice of using listening materials in a classroom depends on various factors, my ideal approach involves a blend of coursebook content for structure, authentic sources for real-world language exposure, and supplementary materials to cater to specific interests. Authentic sources add the colors of real-life language, making it vibrant and dynamic, articles or podcasts cater the specific tastes and interests. I believe a teacher should be flexible and can adapt to students' needs and interests which is the key.
Listening skills is crucial for effective communication. Developing active listening skills is not just about understanding words but also about connecting, thinking critically, and staying engaged. These skills aren't just for the classroom; they're tools of everyday communication outside our walls. So, paying full attention to the speaker, avoiding interrupting, reflective listening such as asking clarifying questions,understanding and sharing the feelings of the speaker, using gestures, facial expressions, and body language to show attentiveness, providing feedback to demonstrate active engagement is important, since I am already trying to use them in my classroom I would suggest my colleagues use them as well. 

The choice I make between inductive and deductive techniques in teaching grammar often depends on the learners' preferences, and the specific context of the lesson. I try to have a balanced approach that incorporates both methods. Never have I ever game was the most inspiring game and I can’t wait to use it in teaching grammar. I usually engage students in guided activities or tasks where they actively explore examples, analyze patterns, and deduce additional aspects of the grammar rule and demonstrate the application of the rule in context. I try to provide constructive feedback on students' written or spoken language, addressing both correct usage and common errors related to the grammar rule. The one I think I should do more is the drilling and intonation part.

In my opinion trying out self and peer assessment could really help with these challenges. It engages students actively in the assessment process, fostering a sense of responsibility for their own learning and reflecting on their language skills, identifying strengths and areas for improvement. Students think critically about their own and peers' language use, it provides Immediate feedback, they work together to assess and support each other. It also allows for a variety of assessment methods with different learning styles and preferences,preparing for Real-Life Communication. It mimics real-life communication scenarios, empowers students to take an active role in their own learning journey. While self and peer assessments offer these advantages, it's crucial to ensure that teachers train students adequately in assessment criteria and that the process is structured to maintain objectivity and fairness. It's hard to change things we've been doing for a long time, but combining these new ways with some training for teachers could make a real positive change in how we test and learn.
