Dear all,
I am really happy to share with you all that I feel concerning this blog or teaching in general. You know when were in the training center every thing was cool for us. We concedered teaching as an easy task and we imagined that we can use technology and a lots of materials. However the circumatances of the Moroccan secondary school are not in a perfect or healthy condition. You know the place where I teach is very difficult for me and and for my students as well. Well students have never heared about some thing called English and they have no idea about England or USA. They dont know that these countries speak English. Just one student told me that he heared that English is used in UAE. So, as a teacher equiped with the last theories of ELT that requires using ICT and students based learning. Of course these theories like Michel Luis with his Lexical Approach and task based learning. Unfortuantely for my students it is hard to learn by these ways and I found myself in a tricky situation. Students are not motivated, no equipments even the student's book is not available for some and no idea about English. I sartred doing my best to make them have an idea about what is English. I went to alhoceima to buy books for them and I started teaching them using their mother tongue, but step by step I move to use English. Now my students are progressing and I will do more efforts to help them go on. Of course if you have any comments or suggestions I will be honored to read them.
