During my classes they get vast array of knowledge, Grammar, lexics, listening and speaking skills
In my ESL classes, learners gain knowledge of grammar, and how to apply it skillfully with the use of speaking, which is accompanied by listening, speaking and writing. They gain also the attitude of being positive and confident in approaching the second language they are learning, which is English
As English teacher, my students get new knowledge by allowing them to make a lot of mistakes, do a lot of homework then a correction is made. I encourage them to practice among themselves and in working life as well with anyone and by so doing, they develop new skills and adopt a positive attitude to demystify the subject.
In teaching chemistry, my students learn new concepts, and through applying these concepts in lab or real life they gain skills, and they gain attitudes through the way they use and apply these concepts.
In order to acquire new knowledge, students need to be able to make sense of new information. Often, students need specific skills that can help them do this. These skills or learning strategies (e.g., note-taking, outlining, learning information from a text, library reference skills) are "technical methods of studying" that help us process, and ultimately retain, information. (Bos & Vaughn, 1998, taken from Lock, 1981 (p. 305).
Students also benefit from teacher intervention and instruction that models the use of learning strategies and helps make new information more accessible to all students. Teachers can use instructional techniques that will complement the strategies students are learning to use on their own. This combined approach will reinforce concepts and foster the confidence all students need to continue meeting the learning challenges they face.
