Analyse the information in the class summary. What are your learners’ strengths and weaknesses?
(max. 100 words)
As a group; these learners' combined strength lies in their mutual motivation to migrate to English speaking countries, either
for employment or for education purposes. Another strength that they are share is the skill for reading, with a majority of them
being high up on the band list, at a number 7 grade.
Their assumed weakness could be that each of them originate from different countries; however, this can play to their
advantage in the long run as the sharing of culture could be an opportunity to build a sense of rapport.
In terms of skills; their weaknesses lie in the other three skills because they are in need of more improvement within those
areas.
Which two skills have you chosen to teach in this lesson? Why? (minimum 150 words)
For this lesson; I chose to focus on teaching the skills, speaking and writing to my students. These skills are two of the
lowest that students are performing in, so I wanted to focus on them in order to raise their individual bands.
Another reason that I chose to focus on these skills is because while I was looking into difficulties that my students have in
relation to learning English; I found that a majority struggle with problems related to pronunciation and the written form of
English, as it differs from their L1s in some ways.
