Three Principles

Teaching through content

This is an important characteristic of teaching, I think one of most important, children need to know why they are studying something and also they want to feel that the things that they are learning are useful in their lifes. For that reason, as teachers we have to be able to teach through topics that are common for the students or topics that they can see everywhere, for example we cannot do an English class to a child from Peru about the games that children play in Australia, it would be better for them if we create a class with their own games and with their own experiences.

Learning take place in social interaction
This aspect is also very important to learn a second language, you cannot learn a language by just take classes you also need to receive feedback that can be provided by other people and not only the teacher, but also the rest of the students, the creation of group work in classes is an useful technique because children take risks and try to talk in more difficult structures, when they talk something to the teacher they try to be correct so they use only the things that they know very well. Also one important aspect is that students need to be in contact with native speakers because teachers don't have the same pronunciation of the native speakers. Definitely a language has to be practice with more people to produce input and to receive output.

Faith in the learners expands student potential
High Expectations, an important concept that every teacher has to develop in order to increase the self confidence in the students. All students are able to do whatever they want, so as teachers is our responsability to make that students can show their potential, a quote that I took from the book says: "The most important lesson we can learnas teachers is that our students have unlimited potential and that we must show our faith in them to reach their potential" this quote sumarize my thoughts and clearly show that is all in aur hands.

We have to be able to manage these three principles, we have to include them in our classes and in our teaching styles, because if we think of the importance of them we can notice that our students could learn in an easy way and we can make classes more interesting for them by using teaching through content, make them to work in groups and of course having faith on the children could help them to believe in themselves and they will do the best that they can.
All the things that we are learning here are new tools to put in practice in our country, is our responsability now to know how to obtain the most benefit of them and to find the best way to apply them with our students.
