This academic year my students have made good use of google tools. One of the best tool for preparing test has been google docs, but also useful has been mindmaps, wordle and also padlet. I have noticed that some schools have decided to increase testing time during the Autumn and Spring term, leaving students with not enough proper learning time. As a result my tutoring work has been challenging and demanding at times as it felt like teaching a complete scheme of work in just 60 min a week. Sometimes these in-house tests included material and topics that learners hadn't properly covered in school. Luckily I have had very able and resilient students this year, and hopefully they will not be discouraged by so much school testing and will carry on next year with modern languages.
Blog sobre experincias en el aprendizaje de lenguas, en concreto español como lengua extranjera. Dirigido a todos aquellos interesados en el uso de nuevas tecnologías y la adquisición de lenguas. En este blog se refleja mi transición personal del aprendizaje en contextos formal basados en programas de estudios, en contraste a experiencias en un aprendizaje fuera del aula más natural, personalizado y autodirigido fuera de contextos escolares.
