5 things I want in my course

Hi everyone, I tried to list the 5 things I want in my English travel course + the things I would put there. What do you think?

@Andrew Woodbury

@Michael Landry

@Leonardo Gomes

WHAT IS SOMETHING YOU WOULD LIKE TO TEACH?

1. Travel-related vocabulary and phrases - divided by themes (greetings, introduction, asking for directions, shopping, etc.)

2. Listening - different accents, looking for specific words, getting familiar with hearing the alerts,

3. Problem-solving – the ability to ask for help, expressing misunderstanding, asking for repetition

4. Self-study habits - creating routine and system for learning

5. Speaking with confidence - different sorts of exercises, practising with their classmates, recording their own voice and sending it back for feedback, gradual exposure (visiting some restaurant in their city where staff only speaks English, calling to book accommodation, etc.)

WHAT ARE 5 THINGS YOU WOULD PUT IN THAT COURSE?

1. After class activities/ Homework -

2. Possibility to ask for advice outside of class (DM)

3. Assessment/ Action plan/ – “ can do statement” followed up by a plan to continue their journey

4. Plan /Schedule for self-study + some activity tracker maybe, so they can see their progress

5. Roleplay
