English: Opening Borders

Abstract

The importance of English nowadays due to globalisation makes this subject one of the most important of the course. Speaking and group work will be the key driving force of this unit, being two pillars of the teaching-learning process for the students which will be of maximum use for their future. The teacher's work will be fundamental not only as a guide for the students' learning, but also as a point of reference who, in addition to teaching English, will be willing to listen and help the students in any adversity that may arise. The attention to the diversity of students and circumstances will lead the teacher to carry out the modifications that he/she considers appropriate, making this program flexible and open, so that all students have the same possibilities and learn at the same pace. The teaching will be based on very important values for an optimal coexistence, such as respect, companionship and generosity with the teacher and among the students. This will be worked on throughout the course in all the units, which present a sequential teaching of English, starting from the grounding and expanding the content little by little.
