I didnt explain all language points, but asked them to give the main
idea, or tell each others why they thought this statement is true or
false.
In exercises, I asked to discuss in groups first, with a group leader,
and then one of them told us what they had done, and I correct the
errors, if necessary.
In reading comprehension, I designed some questions and asked
them to answer.
According to vocabulary, I no longer explained words one by one.
All this actions were aimed to make students active. I believed they would
break their depending and would become more active.
I began to concern for each student their psychological needs, especially for
those poor in English, those lazy, and those who gave up easily. What I felt
at the beginning to give every change and ecouragemetn to them. For
example in the translation of a sentence that a students did not do his best,
I encouraged him by saying try again, and gave him a little hint and he did
really well. When I waited for the students to answer the questions hands
began to stand up voluntarily, not like before. For those who made progress
in their written work, I wrote comments like:
For those who are very bright, I didnt correct any of their mistakes, but
underlined the wrong points, expecting their own corrections. These new
ways changed the class atmosphere and the whole situation. The
students felt that I was trying a new kind of method. I could often see
that they were trying to cooperate with me. The comments and the
methods of marking were proved helpful. They show how students may
improve their work. I read their exercise book during break time.
Moreover, for those students with the underlined errors had corrected
them all. Even the students put a sing to warn himself in order to avoid
that mistake, and to not commit it again.
These sings really encouraged me, and made me think students were all
subconsciously active.
I considered the students asking and the teacher answering pattern. I
found that students were still very slow at asking questions, they were
simply unable to form a question and their questions were always the
Conclusion
So far, I can conclude that being student-centered has been a proved an
educational way to activate students. The specific methods applied show
in the students a greater confidence, independence, initiative and
enjoyment. So, I Have archieved what I intended to do, to improve the
quality of learning experience of my students. The actions change the
class in the way I dont dominate the class, I dont always speak and ask
them to do this or that, and the students as a result became the principal
part of the class.
In a student centered class, the teacher will have to know their
individuals differences, to encourage their learning attempt, and value
their initiative in learning. So only if the content is relevant to the
students knowledge and experience, can their learning practice be
worthy and their leaning motivation more intense and their interest
stronger and their learning more effective and productive.
