This unit I learned about the receptive skills: reading and listening. It's very important that a teacher knows how to implement different activities to improve these skills in the students. One of the things you have to do is look for articles to read that students may find interesting. Not all students will find the topic interesting, that's why as a teacher, I have to look and cover different topics over a period of time. The written language must be of their level, non-authentic. If a teacher give students something to read that requires a higher level of English then they won't understand and get frustrated. When it comes to listening, you can use a song or maybe an interview. It's really important to teach vocabulary of words that may be problematic. Also, the teacher must speak clearly and slowly. If you speak too fast or use a complicated vocabulary the students will get lost and won't learn anything.
