HIII Readers...!!! Welcome back to my new article about "Learning to Learn" in this blog, I want to share how important "Learning to Learn" and How do we learn. So, enjoy my blog readers :) :) :)  ‘Learning to learn’ is the ability to pursue and persist in learning, to organize one's own learning, including through effective management of time and information, both individually and in groups. This competence includes awareness of one's learning process and needs, identifying available opportunities, and the ability to overcome obstacles in order to learn successfully. This competence means gaining, processing, and assimilating new knowledge and skills as well as seeking and making use of guidance. Learning to learn engages learners to build on prior learning and life experiences in order to use and apply knowledge and skills in a variety of contexts: at home, at work, in education, and training. Motivation and confidence are crucial to an individual’s compet

Learning a Second/Third Language at Home and School

hi readers !!! Welcome back to my blog. Now, I want to tell you about "Learning a Second/Third Language at Home and School" for young learners. For many parents, their child’s learning of a second language can’t come quick enough, whether this begins at school, nursery, or at home when they are still a baby. Numerous past studies suggest that it is not at all disadvantageous if a child comes into contact with a second or even third language early on. So is the saying “the earlier you start, the better” valid in this instance? Research in recent years has consistently shown the numerous advantages of learning a foreign language early on, from perceptible leaps in the development of thought and behavior to having more empathy and sensitivity towards other people. A lot of research in this area shows results where bi/multilingual children usually did better or at least as good in tests than their monolingual contemporaries. Children can learn to speak more than one language. The

Learning First Language at Home and School

HI ALL !!! how's your day?? Come back again with me in my new article. In this article, I wanna share some information about Learning First Language at Home and School. Enjoy the reading !! Learning does not begin in school. Learning starts at home in the learners’ home language. Although the start of school is a continuation of this learning, it also presents significant changes in the mode of education. The school system structures and controls the content and delivery of a pre-determined curriculum where previously the child was learning from experience . On starting school, children find themselves in a new physical environment. The classroom is new, most of the classmates are strangers, the center of authority (the teacher) is a stranger too. The structured way of learning is also new. If, in addition to these things, there is an abrupt change in the language of interaction, then the situation can get quite complicated. Indeed, it can negatively affect a child’s progress. Howe

Teaching Listening and Speaking

Hello Readers !!! Welcome back again to my blog. I wish y'all stay healthy. :) :) :)  The skill of communicating in English in the global world today is considered as one of the mustrequired life skills. This growing need might be the cause for parents to send their young children to schools which provide English program. The implementation of TEYL in several countries is based on some rationales. Cameron (2001) proposes some advantages to starting young with foreign languages. She proposes that children who have an early start develop and maintain advantages in some areas of language skills. Listening comprehension mostly benefits from this early start, pronunciation also benefits in longer term. However, younger children learn the grammar of L2 more slowly than older learners, so that although starting earlier with language learning they make slower progress.  Graddol (2006: 89) argues that one rationale for teaching languages to young learners is the idea that they find it easie

Teaching Vocabulary and Grammar

 Hello Readers !!! Welcome back again to my blog. I wish y'all stay healthy. :) :) :)  So, I want to share and tell you about  Teaching Vocabulary and Grammar to Young Learners. In this article, I'll share how to teach vocabulary and grammar to YL's because I know to teach young learners is very hard for the teacher. Hopefully, my article can help us as a teacher in the future. Teaching English as a foreign language has been extended to reach at a very young level regarding the needs of developing human resources. This means that English is taught from the early age, with the expectation that students will get more exposure and acquire the language skills for the better results. However, teaching English to young learners need extra effort because it is more than just passing information. Teaching English to young learners is guiding, nurturing, and facilitating young learners for their activities in learning and understanding knowledge, skills and information of English. (

Policy : Primary ELT Program

 hii readers!!! Welcome back again to my blog. In this chapter, I want to share and tell you about Policy: Primary ELT Program. The English language environment in the three primary schools studied apparently was lacking. The pupils were not being exposed to a conducive English language environment where they were given ample opportunities to use the language in and out of the classroom, and in and out of the school.  • Classroom language opportunity: On the whole, the pupils' only opportunity to use English was limited to the classroom; i.e., during the English language lessons. That would mean a maximum of an hour (for a double period) or a single period of half an hour, six periods a week if the instruction was totally done in the language.  • English outside the classroom: Outside the classroom, English language, as a means of interaction amongst the pupils, was practically non-existent. English language panels and society, which had been entrusted to plan and implement English

Development Stage For Learners

  hello readers!  Welcome back to my blog. So, I wanna tell you about The Development Stage For Learners enjoy my article:) :) :) DEVELOPMENTAL CHARACTERISTICS As noted earlier, actual chronological age is only a relative indicator of someone’s physical, cognitive, and psychosocial stage of development. Unique as each individual is, however, some typical developmental trends have been identified as milestones of normal progression through the life cycle. When dealing with the teaching-learning process, it is imperative to examine the developmental phases as individuals progress from infancy to senescence so as to fully appreciate the behavioral changes that occur in the cognitive, affective, and psychomotor domains. As influential as age can be to learning readiness, it should never be examined in isolation. Growth and development interact with experiential background, physical and emotional health status, and personal motivation, as well as numerous environmental factors such as stres

HI READERS!! Welcome back to my new article. So, in this article, I want to share about Teaching Reading and Writing for Young Learners. Enjoy my article !!! Reading English has some skills namely listening, speaking, reading and writing. Beside these skills, reading becomes important skill that should be mastered by students since they are still young. Reading is one of English skill that is very important that should be taught and delivered well. Reading comprehension skills can be acquired easily through positive communication between the educator and the learner (Alharbi, 2015:1258). In teaching reading, English teachers should implement good and appropriate strategies which can be a stimulus to become active students and participate in teaching and learning process. There are so many strategies in teaching reading but it should be suitable with students’ condition and learning environment. In literate societies, most normal children learn to read by the age of five or six, and som

Rituals in School

Hi readers!!!! COME BACK AGAIN TO MY BLOG :) so, in this blog, I would like to share information and tips about rituals in school. “Brush your teeth, go to the toilets, storytime, and then you go straight to bed”. We’ve got used to hearing them since we were kids, which is why   rituals   are extremely important for students. In fact, they start getting familiar with them at a  very young age.  They get to have responsibilities, tasks and it also gives them the opportunity to work their memory since these habits get “stuck in their minds.”  Rituals at home are as important as those in the classroom. The students feel at ease and know they are in good hands! They are considered as  important  and  practical:  Students learn how to concentrate and this definitely helps teachers to do their job perfectly! As the years go by, rituals keep taking a crucial place in my schedule. The great thing about this is that I can include them in  all types of subjects and for all levels. Here are some
