Inside classroom
            Today, I learnt about 5 English teaching approaches like vocabulary teaching, pronunciation teaching, culture teaching, English using ICT and communicative language teaching. In each method has different teaching process. The following are English teaching approaches.
            First, vocabulary teaching, this group tell only wide information and doesn’t tell the process for teaching. You should collect specific information about vocabulary teaching like how to teach vocabulary in content or context clue. Teachers should have a variety of teaching such as play games to motivate students.
            Second, culture teaching is teaching about different culture of each country such as greeting, food, or life style. It isn’t the main subject but teacher should interrupt culture in the content. There are many methods for teaching culture that are lecture, demonstration, small group discussion, role play. Students can also learn culture outside the classroom. Teacher can teach culture thought songs and dances, pictures, films, and native speakers. It depends on teacher to design the lesson.
            Third, pronunciation teaching. A goal of pronunciation teaching is speaking like a native speaker. A more practical approach is to aim for listener-friends pronunciation. Teachers need a good grounding in theoretical knowledge, practical classroom skills, and access to good ideas for classroom activities. There are 4 teaching steps for teachers to teach. It starts from warmer, listen, focus, and pronunciation practice. Some teachers divides the activities in pronunciation teaching into 5 steps, there are pronunciation, phonetics, speak divides the activities in pronunciation teaching into 5 steps, there are pronunciation, phonetics, speak out, listen, and linking and accent.
            Fourth, teaching English using ICT or web based learning. Students can learn and practice their language through ICT. Students are centre for teaching. Using ICT in the class, it doesn’t easy for teacher. So, before teacher teaches them, teacher should assign the rules for learning. Teacher should choose the content that they are interest. ICT help students both inside and outside the classroom. They can use ICT in anytime, anywhere, and anyone.
            Fifth, communicative language teaching or CLT. This method is based partly in the theories of British functional linguists. Theory of language is used for carrying out meaningful tasks promote learning language that is meaningful to the students promote learning. Teacher facilitates the communication in the classroom like an advisor. Students are communicator. They can use mother tongue. Teacher should have a variety of activities like scrambled sentences, language games, story role play. Communicative uses almost any activity that engaged students in authentic communication.
            After that, teachers conclude all English teaching approaches that we already have presented. He told us how curriculum through teaching. He told the goal of this course is we can design addition course.
            Course design isn’t difficult for us if we understand all English teaching approach that we presented. When we design course, we should choose the topic that support the name’ course. So, we should know about world knowledge because it helps us to design our courses.
