Overall comments on the first submission


This is a good attempt at this assignment, but it lacks cohesion. Part 1 could be far more generic and
focus on the group as a whole if you don´t have enough data for the two individuals you began to
focus on. You also need to make use of reference materials to support your points in Part 2, while
you have not provided a rationale in Part 3. Check the assignment brief again to help you with this.

Specific areas to be addressed in resubmission (if any)

Part 1
Could you blend Part 1 together into more of a generic overview with some specific examples
included, rather than just focusing on the learners you interviewed and tagging on some others at
the end. It lacks cohesion here.

Part 2
This needs to be more detailed and supported with references e.g, Swan “Learner English” to help
identify why these errors could have occurred. See in text comments here.

Part 3: Useful activities here but this section is far too brief: look at the assignment rubric again:
Now think about how to address each of the problems you outlined in part 2:
“You should provide a rationale for using specific activities. The rationale should relate to the students’
interests, learning styles and language needs.”

Can you please paste your resubmission at the bottom of this document leaving youroriginal
submission untouched. Can you please complete this by the end of the day Sunday 16 th June.

(start your assignment here):

Part1:
I asked questions to two of the students; their names were Shakila and Shugyla.
Shakila was 17 years old and Shugyla was 21 years old.
Their levels were A2. Shugyla was a student in university but Shakila was a student in
school.
About their interests, Shakila likes traveling, reading book in English and playing
volleyball;
Shugula likes traveling and reading books just like Shakila, also she likes listening to
music.
Shugula has learned English in university for 6 months and Shakila has learned English
in school for 2 years. Shugyla preferred learning English in university, because of the
teachers and materials that they have in their program but Shakila preferred learning
English in language schools because they can provide better opportunities for language
learners to learn English. Shakila usually studies at the library but Shugyla prefers
studying at home. They both like learning English because of the dreams that they have
in their lives.
Shakila wants to learn English for traveling and studying abroad and Shugyla needs to
learn English for working, traveling and talking to people from other countries.
Shugyla prefers speaking and grammar activities while on the other hand Shakila likes
listening and reading, because she thinks that grammar is boring and difficult.
About their production skills, Shakila and Shugyla both could make themselves clear by
making simple sentences;
They both could understand the teacher's questions and answer them quickly; the parts
that they had questions , they asked me to write them on the board and explain.
Shakila should work on her fluency by having more speaking activities and making
sentences by herself, because she wasn't confident enough in speaking, but Shugyla
spoke more confidently and fluently than Shakila.
They both could use the words appropriately but not the grammar, they had few
grammatical mistakes, especially Shakila should work more on using the grammar
appropriately.

Since Shakila and Shugyla didn't attend the classes anymore, I'm giving some
comments about the other student's receptive skills in the class.
Ali, Igor, Numan, Margaret are good at listening and reading activities in the class,
evidenced by the fact that they are confident when answering comprehension questions
and they usually answer quickly; they are active and hardworking as well too.
Other students like Ashin and Alax need to work more on listening and reading,
evidenced by the fact that they are not confident enough to answer the questions in
feedback, so they sometimes struggle with giving the right answers or understanding
.comprehension questions
Part 2
:Grammar mistake
What the student said: She don't go

What is wrong? Wrong form of the auxiliary in the present


simple grammar.
It should be does not for she (third person)

Why did the student make the mistake? Since only for the third person we use does,
student thinks for all subjects we use do,
the student has over-applied the rule.

Pronunciation mistake:

What did the student pronounce? Asked / skd/

How should it be pronounced?


Asked /æskt/

Part 3:
*Materials are taken from English islcollective
For grammar problem:

For the grammar mistake about present simple, students can circle the
correct answer above, and then make question sentences with do/does:
For pronunciation problem:

Teacher writes the correct pronunciation on the board:


asked= /æskt/
Then ask students to repeat after teacher (whole class)
Teacher explains the different sounds of /ed / when they are added to
verbs in the past simple.
Teacher gives examples and ask students to repeat each verb after
teacher:
