The students in the group are either adolescence or adults, so it is very likely they already know how to give or ask for directions in their mother tongue.  Since their previous knowledge helped them to complete the activities, we can say the transfer was positive.]]> 2020-04-27 04:50:34 UTC https://padlet.com/nicoescudero10/ul5tohvrb303po3o/wish/532342553 nicoescudero10 https://padlet.com/nicoescudero10/ul5tohvrb303po3o/wish/532356776  On several opportunities, Kit asks the students to work with a partner to complete activities or work on pronunciation. He also asks direct questions to the students and approaches to them to check they are carrying out the task assigned accurately. ]]> 2020-04-27 05:05:43 UTC https://padlet.com/nicoescudero10/ul5tohvrb303po3o/wish/532356776 nicoescudero10 https://padlet.com/nicoescudero10/ul5tohvrb303po3o/wish/532358747 On several occasions, the teacher asks a random student to repeat the instructions given, to check if the activity was understood.
