PART 2

In 2025, I became a teacher and teaching children in a library that I own. That was my dream goal 10 years ago but it finally happened! My library runs by me and my aunt who was in New Zealand. The English library will have reading courses focused on storytelling for various ages and the aim will be accepting English through unstressful way. Also there are some nearly native English speaker teachers so they can help children pronunciation and advanced listening skills. I think it's important to listening proper standards English.

Children are often easily absorb, so it will be more good for them. Korean mothers will love that as well. Unfortunately though, in Korea, children do not have a lot of imagination , they ought to learn fixed learning curriculum like old fashioned way of teaching. so I will try hard for students to grow imagination through reading different kinds of books. My teaching courses will be storytelling. I will use colorful presentations that shows various stories for all age with a beam. Also, before starting the course, for adults class, I will use a dialogue circle and for children's class, I will use a fishbowl method. The storytelling will be presented with a book or an one play role by a teacher.

For adults classes, before classes, students and teacher will make a circle and will put what genres they want to study or read in a small box so everyone can be more interested in this course and will talk freely about whatever they want for maximum of 10 minutes for awakening the brain. This course will include making story-boards and tell stories to each others. I will use a computer lab in a library when making the story-board. It is really useful learning words and making sentences, depend on English skills the boards number will be six to twelve. The method is simple, students just have to pick six to twelve pictures that captured in a story and put three lines below pictures. After print them, write more than 4 key words in each picture for making sentences and storytelling.

For children classes, I will make special sign languages between students and them. When I talk to other teacher, child will hard to talk to me and am busy because of teaching other students, we will use the special sign language. Such as, a sign that 'I am going to have water or bathroom' then other students will not be interrupted. Also I really want to see that cute children's gestures.

week14 assignment

After when I saw my videos, I realized that my vocabularies were short so I think I have to read more English books so I can build up words. If people who I have to use English, not close with me, I get nervous to talk. So, I think, I can't show my English ability well. I am surely I have to work on that. The ways can be, More chatting with non-familiar people and  More watching Drama series that I like, and learn from them.

week13

I was surprised there are many creative methods of teaching, behavior managements and discipline I only knew few of them.
I will defenetely use dialogue circle because students usually donot want to tell their thoughts to parents and to teachers and they might donot know what their thoughts are so
with this activity, they will get many chances to think about themselves and if they know
thier friends are having similar thoughts, they would feel safe.
Also fishbowl is a really good method which I will use. The reason is eventhough some
donot understand the class, through this they will get an understanding with their language
in a discussion. Moreover, with this method, students will get a good understanding and thinking ailities.

Which sites and resources were of most/least interest as a language learner? Why? 

BreakingNewsEnglish.com
It was the most interesting as a learner because this is a very great site to read English articles for learners who have tried to read BBC News and find stressful. This site provides simplied eath articles and exercises on articles. It is great for reading comprehension. 

Lessons On American Presidents.com
It was the least interesting as a language learner because I even don't know my own country's presidents.

from shared resources

Pets Corner - This word search
I will use this resource for elementary students in class for an activity. It is fun and also naturally helps to remember and see alphabets more carefully.
For me, when I was young it was the most fun thing and time-killing.












This short reading comprehension
This really does help students who cannot do reading comprehension well. Because this is a short story, students doesn't get pressure and if the story is interesting, students will get an enthusiasm to read and understand.

FOOD FOR THOUGHTS

The video is saying world is reforming public education for economic and cultural at the moment, in Korea, government is changing History with no clear reasons so people and students are really shocked and strongly against that. The reason is they said they will erase some of famous patriotic martyrs for democracy because they donot have enough evidence to prove them. I mean why now? Are they changing like Japan distorted history? We still have few people from that period and their descendants. I dont know what is going on with Korea.
Anyway, so I was surprised western also has the judgement on people's academic level, in Korea, this really is taking seriously that our university entrance rate is over 80 percent. People are just going to university because of increased standard. I saw an article about Korea's 수능 which is a national test for university entrance that someone took a 수능's English to Cambridge student in England and she said this is non-understandable and really hard. I felt really sorry for Korea. Like the video said schools are industry producing students.
