A technique helping with pronunciations is the 3x3 drilling. Explain this technique.

I have read all the lessons and have tried skimming back over them to find this, but I just don't remember it or see it.

You don't have to answer it for me, but you could!

If anyone knows which lesson it's in, 1-20?

Thanks!

you say it once and whole class repeats once (x3)

you say it once and call on a student to repeat once (x3)

3x3

or at least that is my understanding

[jameltoe]

are you taking the exam now?

[drdst122]

yes, I am taking the exam right now...

have until 830pm EST to turn it in..

[jameltoe]

if you downloaded the units and have adobe, you should be able to search them for "drilling" pretty quickly. Good luck. I'm on unit 13 right now and should be finishing up in the next week or so.

[drdst122]

Yeah, thanks a lot.

I have done that for other topics but not this one. Doh'

Good luck with your course.

ITTT sent me an email telling me I passed the course.

They also asked this, which I found weird

In the document you will be asked if you would prefer to receive a TEFL or TESOL certificate. We should stress that one is certainly not preferred over the other, and that these acronyms are used interchangeably. Schools and TEFL employers worldwide will generally accept TESOL and TEFL certificates equally as qualifications in teaching English.


Which one should I choose? TEFL or TESOL?

[jameltoe]

Id say go with the one with more letters

TEFL ( Teacher of English as a Foreign Lanaguage) is the older term.

TESOL (Teacher of English to Speakers of another Language) - is the new "politically correct" term.

Both TEFL and TESOL are considered the same in Asia.


However, if you wish to teach English in your own Home-Country to (immigrants, etc) who have moved to your home-country - then TESOL is the best choice.
