Unit 1: Clubes de inglés
Es importante recordar que se ha puesto mucha información gratuita en Internet en sitios web para profesores de inglés. Esta información es fácilmente utilizable por los miembros interesados de un club de enseñanza de inglés. Algunos de estos sitios han sido incluidos en esta Unidad.
Además, las instrucciones, explicaciones y formas de estudiar en inglés se pueden traducir fácilmente en el traductor de Google – simplemente escribe ‘trad’ en Google y presionando ‘enter’.
Una idea para organizar y gestionar reuniones de clubes de aprender inglés
- El grupo necesitará un lugar para reunirse y, si es posible, un hablante nativo de inglés para ayudar a administrar el club. Debe tener un líder y/o presentador de la reunión que pueda hablar lentamente en un nivel principiante avanzado en inglés. Familiares y amigos también pueden utilizar este concepto pero a un nivel reducido.
- Al comienzo de cada reunión, un visitante o miembro puede hacer una presentación o presentar un video en inglés de aproximadamente 10 minutos para todo el grupo en una computadora portátil o monitor. La computadora portátil debería tener disponible una pantalla un poco más grande y parlantes adicionales, si es posible.
- Los miembros del club tendrán la oportunidad de hacer preguntas en su idioma nativo si no entienden algo.
- Después, los asistentes pueden dividirse en grupos de varios niveles de habilidad para hablar. Cada grupo debe tener un líder.
- Los grupos responderán preguntas escritas en una hoja de papel sobre la presentación o el vídeo. Cada estudiante debe recibir una copia de las preguntas. Habrá un total de 10 a 12 preguntas y se ordenarán según la dificultad del idioma, empezando por la más fácil.
- Cada grupo responderá por escrito a las preguntas que pueda. Si es posible, diferentes miembros de los grupos superiores pueden turnarse para ayudar a los grupos inferiores, o a veces cada grupo puede simplemente trabajar con sus propios miembros. Está bien traducir cuando sea necesario.
- Después de unos 10-15 minutos, los grupos regresarán al área de presentación.
- Las preguntas ahora serán respondidas por voluntarios del grupo y las respuestas se colocarán en una pizarra blanca o negra para que todos las copien.
- Después de esto, se servirán refrigerios y todos los miembros podrán tener un tiempo abierto de conversación en inglés.
- En este momento los integrantes también pueden decidir qué actividades les gustaría realizar con sus socios durante la siguiente semana. Los estudiantes pueden estudiar inglés de forma independiente, según lo deseen, con sus familiares, amigos y otros miembros del club, en persona o por Internet.
- Por ejemplo, diferentes miembros del grupo pueden elegir una o más unidades de sus respuestas a las preguntas de la presentación o de USA Learns, Duo Linguo, VOA “Let’s Learn English” u otros cursos o sitios. No todos los miembros de cada grupo harán las mismas tareas a menos que así lo deseen.
- En la Guía de habilidades básicas de AOK y otras guías también se pueden encontrar otras buenas lecciones sobre lectura, escritura, comprensión auditiva, expresión oral, gramática, vocabulario y habilidades de estudio en los niveles A1-2 y superiores. En la Guía AOK, algunos sitios muy populares están marcados en negrita, pero muchos de los otros sitios también tienen buenas actividades.
- Antes de finalizar la reunión se intentará hacer planes para una presentación y refrigerio para la siguiente reunión.
An Idea for Organizing and Managing English Club Meetings
- The group will need a place to meet and if possibly a native English speaker/s to help run the club. It should have a leader and/or presenter for the meeting who can speak slowly at the advanced beginner level in English. Families and friends can also use this concept but on a reduced level.
- At the beginning of each meeting a visitor or a member can do a presentation or present about a 10-minute English video for the whole group on a laptop or monitor. The laptop should have a slightly larger screen available and extra speakers, if possible.
- The club members will be given a chance to ask questions in their native language if they don’t understand something.
- After, those in attendance can divide into groups of several levels of speaking ability. Each group should have a leader.
- The groups will answer questions written on a piece of paper about the presentation or the video. Each student should receive a copy of the questions. There will be total of 10-12 questions, and they will be ordered in terms of their language difficulty with the easiest first.
- Each group will answer the questions that they are able to in written form. If possible, different members from the higher groups can take turns helping the lower groups, or each group can sometimes just work with their own members. It’s fine to translate when necessary.
- After about 10-15 minutes, the groups will return to the presentation area.
- The questions will now be answered by group volunteers with the answers put on a black or white board for everyone to copy.
- After this, refreshments will be served and all the members can have open English conversation time.
- At this time the members can also decide what activities they would like to do with their partners during the following week. The students can study English independently as they choose with their families, friends and other club members in person or on the internet.
- For example, different group members can choose one or more units from their answers to the questions from the presentation or USA Learns, Duo Linguo, VOA “Let’s Learn English” or other courses or sites. The members in each group will not all do the same assignments unless they choose to.
- In the AOK Basic Skills Guide and other guides there are also other good lessons to be found in reading, writing, listening, speaking, grammar, vocabulary and study skills at the A1-2 levels and higher. In the AOK Guide, some very popular sites have been marked in bold, but many of the other sites also have good activities.
- Before the end of the meeting, plans will try to be made for a presentation and refreshments for the following meeting.
