Methodology of Teaching a Foreign Language is an Important Science
Abstract
The article illustrates that there are obviously many ways of teaching, and part of the enjoyment of being a student in a good classroom is in sharing the unique personal identity, style, skills and techniques that a teacher brings to a lesson. Having said that, it sometimes gives things a clearer perspective if we simplify rather than complicate. A teacher should know about the subject matter and about methodology, but also has an awareness of how individuals and groups are thinking and feeling within the class and actively responds to this in the planning and methods and in building effective working relationships and a good classroom atmosphere.
