 Introduction

In the present essay I will show how I would personally like my education through ESP, in the
same way to the environment in which in that case I would educate outside of the following way,
I want to show what would be for me the best way to reach the student being a teamwork, also
expressed that the practical is more important than the theoretical not in terms of general
knowledge but the way in which it can be made easier to learn.

MY COURSE OF ESP

A university student of a Bachelor TEFL program in Colombia wants to hire an English teacher
for a preparation for the Cambridge exam known as CEPTO. This student already has an English
level of B2 and is highly motivated to graduate as soon as possible, but lacks listening and
reading comprehension skills. Therefore, he wants you to help him prepare in these two areas for
the exam.

For my ESP course, the first thing I would do was to assess the situation in the educational
context in which the young person develops his previous knowledge assessment, his ability to
learn and understand, and later he would go on to identify what is the factor that makes his
listening comprehension difficult. and a reader, she would also look at her strongest aspects and
use this to have a better methodology. At the moment of helping her to improve her study of the
English language especially. When it comes to listening and reading and in this way
implementing the best actions for that the student, rather than as a tedious study, took it as a daily
practice, thus generating his great evolution and how many decadence and that he can enjoy the
process of educating himself.

The second thing I would do is proceed to formulate a study plan that is suitable both for the
student and for me since if we feel how we can make a more privatized education more reliable
and much more guaranteed after this I would look at the different ways in which could see the
facility to the student so that he can strengthen his listening skills and writing or he could also
propose to the student that for which would be the best way to learn or understand and improve
their decadence, thus generating the tranquility that the student is comfortable and at ease with
the methodology to implement. And it is in this case we speak of a problem of listening
comprehension and reading the different methods of implementation would be those in which
these points can be trained, and it would be a practical methodology, I think the theory in this
case would be very little recursive how to implement the doctrine, history would not be the most
optimal resource for this course.

I would use different audiovisual materials as a resource for listening comprehension, in which
the image helps understanding what is being listened to and generated, thus strengthening much

more the ear to the different words that are heard and achieved. So the person can strengthen
their capacity to understand Auditory would use Audiobooks in the same way so that apart from
being able to get a good listening a good listening comprehension which also enrich their
knowledge in different areas in this case would also use documentaries and even in different
television series movies and all those that help the student to improve their listening skills but
also feel comfortable in the face of what they are learning, thus achieving a more optimal way
that they can receive all the information or understand how they should implement the way they
hear and speak. And to work on his reading comprehension, he would look for texts that would
be a degree day for the student and easy to understand and that would be useful to enrich the
general culture of the person, so that he / she can have a better performance since he / she will be
able to understand or study through readings that make it more practical and easier to study and
find an environment in which the student can feel comfortable that he can exploit all his abilities
that he creates himself that he is able to understand and understand in order to be able to exercise
as much as trying to implant him A knowledge or mold to a knowledge would be that the same
exploit their abilities to do so because if you already have a prior knowledge in the English
language is because you have the skills to be able to perform in all areas of this the best way
would use texts whose support be images so that it will be easier for you to begin the hard work
of understanding the readings in this language and so it can evolve satisfactorily and that both he
and I can see his breakthrough.

 conclusion

This essay shows us the ways in which we could learn in a more didactic way in which we could
make an environment more than a student educator, one of two people who come together to
enrich knowledge in an environment in which students can.
