DEVELOPMENTAL PARAGRAPH

Exist many things that can help to understand English strategies represent one of the tools that help the teachers to catch their students’ attention, understanding that English sometimes could be difficult for that king of young people that are fighting to learn their native language and also they have to learn a second one. According with teach-nology.com (2007) there are many strategies that can help you to do the English you learn the best and the most dynamic too. One of the most important strategies is audio-visuals one, that are: videos, compact disk, etc. how can you use this? In your classes, you can put videos with native English speakers; it can help you a lot. You can also put music or conversations.

Generally is thought that the only strategy is audio-visual one, but it is not. Other strategies that catch the students’ attention are monologues, dialogues, dramatizations, etc; you can also call these strategies “STRATEGIES TO IMPROVE THE VOCABULARY”. It consists on make small or big groups and give them peaces of paragraph or phrases in order to learn them by heart or they can read them. It helps the students to improve their vocabulary because sometimes you will find students that can not speak English fluently, they want to be helped, and these strategies are perfect for them. Apart of this king of students, there are students that they do not present interested in other language and these strategies (as it is dynamic), it can envelop all king of students.

With reference to Pellino, Karen (2007) in teach-nology.com said, “As educators you need to realize that education occurs in the context of a social climate. The relationships between students and accompanying range of social behavior have a major impact on how well the students learn English and how well the students learn overall. Children can not achieve in an unwelcoming, hostile, environment”. She said in addition, “They often lack the ability to interact in social settings with English speaking peers and have the opportunity to interact academically or socially”. It explains you that socially information is a strategy too, because they are enveloped in a society that present the first level in this country and using this information to improve their English, you turns it as a strategy too.
