3x3 Drilling
When learning the English language students are regularly confronted with vocabulary that is new and unfamiliar to them. In order to learn how to pronounce these words correctly the student needs to hear them being modelled by the teacher. 3x3 or choral drilling is one common technique that is often used in the classroom to aid the students in this process. The 3x3 technique begins with the teacher clearly enunciating the new word to the class who then repeat it back as a whole group, this process is then repeated twice more. Following on from the choral drilling the teacher then indicates a single student to repeat the word back to the rest of the group, this process is then repeated twice more using different students. As well as teaching the pronunciation of new words, this technique can also be used to help students overcome common pronunciation difficulties that are caused by specific English letters and sounds that are not used in their own native language.Below you can read feedback from an ITTT graduate regarding one section of their online TEFL certification course.

This convenient, highly structured design means that you can quickly get to grips with each section before moving onto the next.
Going into this unit, I thought it would be the easiest. However I was wrong. It took me a while to learn it. Maybe it is just because all the tenses are now all in my head and I?m getting confused, but hopefully I have chosen the correct answers in the test. Looking now at all the different tenses, it is important to make sure to teach the students how not to get confused.Great interesting unit stressing on models and the voices in English.Here i have gotten a comprehensive explanations of the different models and their different uses,also sample exercises to better understand and teach these models.Though its may seems complex at times to understand the uses of the different models i believe i have gotten ideas to get along well with this topic.
