1. Do you think teaching grammar should be implicit or explicit and why?
2. How do you deal with grammatical errors in your lessons?
3. Why is it important to revise and recycle new language regularly?1.- I think that both ways are necessary and it would have to be considered in relation to the sudent’s knowledge of the language and how it works.
2.- If it is speaking, I let students generate their discourse and after I point out the mistakes and how to generate the correct gramatical sentence using the right elements as well as explaining the need for doing so.
3.- To check if our students have interiorised the vocabulary and grammar learnt in previous lessons.I think it depends on the linguistic level of the students. Both have their pros and cons.
If the mistake turns into an error, first I try to assist the student to do sel-correction. If s/he is not able to do that, I explain the reason for the error.
As the speaker has also mentioned, in order to learn we need to revise the materials. Students should use the newly learned structures, otherwise they will lose them.
