How would you test the student's level based on a 20 minute trial class?

你如何在20分钟的试听课中测试学生的英语水平？

I will spend some time first of all getting to know the student and making them feel at ease. I will ask a variety of questions and discuss a variety of subjects. During our assessment period I will be taking note of the student`s ability in speaking, fluency, structure, vocabulary and reading ability. I feel that a student should be able to read with 90% accuracy. The student should find that his reading level is challenging but not frustrating. Every student will be different. I use a method recommended by various Provinces in Canada to assess each student on an individual basis. I will also review the student`s progress from time to time and make any needed adjustments to allow the student to learn at his or her own pace.

我会花些时间来了解学生，让他们感觉轻松自在。对学生会问各种各样的问题，和他们一起讨论各类话题。在评估过程中，我会把学生的口语、流畅程度、语言结构、词汇和阅读能力的情况记录下来。我觉得学生阅读时要保证90%的准确率。他们还会发现所读的内容水平是有挑战性的而不是让他们灰心的。每个学生都是不同的。我是用的方法是加拿大多省用来评估单个学生英语水平的方法。还要时不时的检查下学生的进步情况，并根据学生学习的进度进行必要的调整。

How would you structure a regular 30 minute class? What methods would you use?

30分钟的正式课，你是怎么安排？你用什么方法？

Depending on each student I will use a variety of techniques which may include non-verbal (acting out), recognition (using specific questions with answer options for the student to choose from), structured and unstructured discussions, recall, retelling and even vocabulary games and songs. I start out each class with free conversation. This allows the student an opportunity to put into practice what he or she has been learning. I like to commend them when they incorporate new vocabulary words into their conversation. Comprehension is important and so I will focus on how well a student understands the lesson. I take time to review new words and phrases. We may use teacher demonstrations or student demonstrations to help the student retain the new words and phrases. I will also use technology which may include pictures or video to help a student grasp a new word or phrase. I encourage each student to use what they know in conversation. They need to feel comfortable using their new language. Based on the age level of each student we will incorporate into our lessons topics that interest them most. I want to make learning English personal and fun for my students. This keeps the student interested and eager to learn!

根据每个学生的具体情况，我会使用多种教学方法，其中包括非语言（行动）、识别（用些带有答案的特定问题，让学生对答案进行选择）、结构化与非结构化的讨论、回顾、复述和词汇游戏和歌曲。我通常用自由对话开始一节课，这样可以把他们学过的东西加入到对话中进行练习。当他们把新词汇用在对话里时，我会表扬他们。理解力的提高是很重要的，所以我重点关注学生是否能理解好课程内容。复习新词汇短语要投入一些时间。我们要用老师示范或学生师范的方式来巩固新学的词汇和短语。除了这些方法以外，我有时还用其它方法包括看图片或视频的方式来帮助学生掌握新词汇。我鼓励学生在对话中使用他们所知道的东西。他们希望能轻松使用英语这门语言。根据不同的年龄层次，我们会把学生的兴趣融入到课程中来。我想让他们在快乐中学习英语，这样能保持学生的学习兴趣，让他们更渴望学习。

How would you relate one lesson to nest so as to ensure the student has retained the key points and make your lessons systemic?

你如何让每节课和每节课之间都有衔接，系统化你的课程？

We review key points at the beginning and end of a lesson, which will include new words or phrases that the student learned during the previous lesson. I encourage students to keep a vocabulary notebook which includes new words learned and what they mean. I want them to practice using these words or phrases so that they become natural for them. I also like to offer homework to students. Those who choose to take advantage of this provision find that they progress quicker because they are practicing their new language. We review the homework during our next lesson to ensure that the student has grasped the concept and then take the time to personally help the student in areas where there is a need.

我们会在课程开始和结束的时候复习知识要点，包括上节课学过的新词汇或短语。我鼓励学生们用笔记本记录他们学过的单词包括单词的含义。我想让他们平时多练习使用这些词汇或短语，这样他们就能很自然的掌握了。有时我还会给学生们布置作业，这么做的学生会逐渐发现自己进步很快，因为他们不断练习自己的新语言。下次课我们会一起回顾下作业，以确保学生掌握概念，对于不熟悉的知识我们会再花些时间学习。
