In the process of training adults it is necessary to identify the level of English in each student with the aim of orienting the knowledge to improve their learning, implementing 2 principles advantages and disadvantages of being an adult student.

 

1. It is to obtain the maximum benefit of its age, the knowledge is specific and the concentration and memory are high.

 2. Specify the different concepts, through daily and practical examples, daily life is the best learning environment, conversations between students of the program.

3. Differentiate the theoretical concepts, in the grammatical aspects, some graphs and written examples are important to acquire practice.

4. Questions are important to get help and know the level of learning.

5. To direct the knowledge motivating the social and labor benefit of a second language.

 DISADVANTAGES

1. Learning in adults may have difficulties because of work and family concerns, but a motivating teacher can have students learn and complete a new level in English.

2. The adult student can be insecure at the time of learning, so it is necessary for the teacher and his classmates to help each other in each class.

 3. It is possible for the adult student to learn grammar concepts, but not to have fluency in the pronunciation of words and conversations, but practice can overcome difficulties.

In the process of teaching a foreign language in adolescents has many aspects, in this case I can call ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES.

 ADVANTAGE

 1. Teens learn concepts easily, can get good pronunciation in words and conversations.

2. They have no fear in the moment of learning, because everything is a new world to discover.

3. They feel the need to improve every day, practice for fun and actively participate.

 4. They learn through movement, sound, video practice, written exercises, chain of words and group and individual games.

 DISADVANTAGES

 1. Young students do not have the capacity to concentrate, their attention is limited, and therefore, the teaching effort is greater.

 2. Learning is high, but it is not constant because distractions prevent training.

 3. Learning must be dynamic because it can be considered monotonous in classes.

The video is good in the process of teaching and learning because it awakens student’s interest in class and creativity in the development of their tasks.

The strategies that I chose, I consider are appropriate because in order to teach adults, a resource is necessary that can be seen and read as many times as the student wants, in reference to adolescents their learning must have images, movement and dynamics, as the activities proposed in article.

INCLUDE

Relevance: Materials may be produced that are directly relevant to students.
And institutional needs and reflecting local content, issues and concerns.
Developing expertise: Developing materials can help develop expertise
Among staff, giving them a greater understanding of the characteristics of
Effective materials.

The quality of the material made by the teacher will not normally have the same standard

From design and production as commercial materials and, therefore, not
They present the same image as commercial materials.

In training there is a great disadvantage that is to prepare teachers for writing projects, training.

The nature of material development
It is also important to understand the nature of the development of materials and
The processes that are normally involved if you are going to create quality materials.

PREPARATION

Critical interpretation and analysis of texts, structuring and
Segmentation, development of a curricular repertoire and clarification of Purposes.

Also describes it as representation: use of a representational repertoire that includes analogies,
Metaphors, examples, demonstrations, explanations, among others.



Another idea

I want to share with you about the resources to teach English for both adults and teenagers.

I decided to choose this website that is an excellent resource where you can find different exercises, books, among others, in this case the present Simple

Http://eduteka.icesi.edu.co/index.php

Resource to teach Presente Simple to teenagers is   Book  touchstone arcade

I present the resource to teach dolecentes, I decided to use the because it starts from a flexible and basic stage, then raises the level of the student according to their learning needs:

In this case the Games of crusigramas as soon as it takes them a little start with this activity since they have to write and think a little but everything is a matter of time. We can sit down with them and have fun, so we will create an educational field, and in turn they develop the complete and healthy cognitive process is necessary to stimulate them and propose different and not so typical games that are responsible for stimulating them.

Crossword games for children are an excellent option for the more Adolencestes relate to the language and writing and power to decipher unknowns.

The second resource to teach Presente Simple to teenagers is the Songs.

This resource is very important because it allows the student
Have fun and enjoy! Music is a universal language that we can all enjoy and with which we relate. Listen to songs in English every day and you'll soon be amazed at how much English you can learn with relative ease. When you incorporate fun activities, such as listening and singing aloud, to language learning, you will not realize that you are learning another language. And you concentrate on your pronunciation and understanding of the beat, the rhythm and the tone of English.
For this I share a Video where the present Simple of the song is evidenced

It's late in the evening
She's wondering what cloth to wear
She puts on her make up
And brushes her long blonde hair
And then she ask me,'Do i look alright'
And i say,'Yes, you look wonderful tonight

We go to a party
And everyone turns to see
This beautiful lady
That's walking around with me
And she ask me,'Do you feel alright'
And i say,'Yes, I feel wonderful tonight'

I feel wonderful because i see
The love light in your eyes
And then the wonder of it all
Is that you just don't realize
How much i love you

It's time to go home now
And i've got an achimg head
So i gave her the car keys
And she helps me to bed
And the i tell her,as i turn out the light,
I say,'My darling, you were wonderful tonight.
Oh my darling, you wre wonderful tonight.'

 

• Incoherence of many programs in teaching English when teachers choose to choose and design their own resources or materials.

• Another problem according to the unit is to use textbooks as they reduce the role of the teacher to one of managing or supervising pre-planned events, but they are known to use and develop properly.

• Teachers choose to create their teaching books and this makes the class uneducated and makes the class poor.

• Not using technological tools.
• Use any material that has not been produced for language teaching.

• It is a useful form of professional development for teachers and encourage autonomous learning strategies in students.
• Materials can play a key role in the classroom interaction process, helping to reduce stress and unpredictability.
• Materials must contextualize the language they present.
• The quality of materials must be important
• The materials have to be authentic since the language is not limited.

As we all probably know, there are several types of resources and resources for teaching and all of them play an important role in certain situations.

I would like to show you the most employees are:

- The slate or waxed
- Overhead projector, overhead projector, digital projector
- Textbooks, consultations, exercises, etc.
- The language laboratory, the computer room and the multimedia room:
Recordings, projections, radio, TV, videos, computer programs, internet,
etc.
- Magazines and newspapers: articles, abstracts, news, reports, advertisements,
- The franelogram and plastigram; Flashcards and moving signs
- Flowcharts, posters, murals, posters, etc.
- Slides, films, photos, postcards
- Trips to the country, visits and excursions: visits to museums, monuments, contacts
With natives, etc.
