TESOL/TEFL/ESL Teaching English Speaking with Task-Based Learning

[@auso91]

In all honesty, I normally hate esl activities because I find them too immature; however, I loved this one. It works perfectly for adults and you can work with many topics at the same time. I'm going to use for a review. Thank you and congratulations!

[@dougfreshking1977]

I think this is a great lesson. I would like to try it out with my students. Where can I get a copy of the worksheet with laws/name of country/ regulations that the teacher uses in this video?

[@JBCamot]

It is a wonderful video ,which help me to improve ,focus more on the methodologic courses that I am taking.thank so much indeed!

[@jawadsharifi2547]

Thanks a million, dear teacher for your great lesson! It was so useful to me!

[@EstelioSelvinaMateus]

I loved the method. Its very productive in fact, simple to use, it gives students chance to speak and express themselves...

[@camilodiaz3692]

Congrats! That was a great TBL lesson demo; the pre-task and the task cycle were pretty clear. However, I would like you to show us how to properly give feedback to students. How do you point the mistakes they commited during the task?

[@BridgeTEFL]

Hi Camilo, thanks for watching our video! One of our preferred methods for correcting mistakes is to make a note of all the mistakes you observed and then go over them with the entire class once the activity is over. Give them the chance to make the correction (as a group) before you do it yourself. This allows them to think critically about their mistakes without singling out any one student.

[@fathinaser7541]

Kindly, did you apply this method before,,by chance cab I get the worksheet?

[@sabinnah11]

This is a great example, thank you for sharing it. Greetings from Argentina.

[@joymartel8507]

Wow! I really liked this idea for a variety of reasons - novelty, creativity, vocabulary. When I was thinking of developing my own task-based activity, I was stuck in "reality mode." Her idea of a murder mystery is a clever one as well.

[@sioltheone6380]

I loved your class and had fun even when I wasn´t there. Task based activities are great and fun specially when students are able to communicate their ideas.

[@BridgeTEFL]

Hi Siol! Glad to hear you enjoyed the course :)

[@BridgeTEFL]

Glad you enjoyed it! :)

[@dwheresmymana]

This looks like and excellent activity. It's simple and it engages the intellect and requires a bit of creativity. I teach EFL to university students, and I think this activity would be a great fit for my students. Thanks!

[@teachermerci4279]

Great lesson. Students practice speaking.in.a very dinamic way

[@BridgeTEFL]

Hello Uncle5cary, this is a great activity for more advanced students. I could see how beginner and intermediate students might find this too difficult.

[@chandrashekharupadhyaya6530]

Great lessons. Very useful.Thank you Ma'am. 🙏

[@bondansuratno8155]

Thank you for sharing. I have tried it and it works. I'm waiting for your next video.

[@davidzack4753]

please, post the worksheet. i just cant find it.

[@UES_Ricardo_Perez]

What a wonderful lesson!!!👌

[@JadeCarter66]

Can you share the resources used in this video? The worksheets? I might use this activity with my students in online learning due to this pandemic occurring right now

[@rizqiamalia5751]

can i implemented this method to adult students ??

[@makinawdandy6699]

That was interesting, but we did not see how you give the students corrections. I think that would be valuable to show. I would like to see the approach that you take to accomplish that.

[@valeriavaleri6410]

Could you give an example of what to include in the guideline

[@ursulalenthe146]

I think this speaking lesson is great! I would love to try it with my class. Is there a possibility to get the worksheet that goes with it?

[@BridgeTEFL]

Hello Ursula, Apologies for the delayed response! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. Unfortunately, we do not have the worksheets that go along with the video, but if you are looking for some teaching resources and more tips, follow us on Facebook or check out our BridgeTEFL blog: bridge.edu/tefl/blog :)

[@GonzaloBarahonaPetit]

where can i find all this material to work wih my students?

[@zarageta889]

Is it a meaningful activity though? Where will they make use of it outside the classroom?

[@BridgeTEFL]

Hi Zara, Good question! Even if students don't use this information outside the classroom, the goal is to get them working together and practicing their English skills! This is just one way of doing that. Hope this helps :)

[@sssalsera]

@@BridgeTEFL It is great to practice thinking skills and reflection. I loved it.

[@baharslt2512]

That was so amusing and helpful. I would try to use it in my class someday

[@mprosiles]

what ESL level would these students be considered?

[@alialimin6292]

This teaching and learning is very interesting. I would like to try it with my students.

[@mjsa7212]

Thanks for the video. I wonder if I could ask you to introduce one of the best free sites to download Task-Based activities from. Much appreciated.

[@Ismella]

I really love your idea! The lesson is great! The task you set is a well-chosen one and very learner-centered. All skills are integrated in the lesson and the Ss use the lg productively and receptively, in an unrehearsed context. Is the handout which you gave them available somewhere on the web? Cheers

[@امیرعلیمتولی-ص3ج]

I salute you, a unique method in reality. Appreciated Amir

[@linagomez8299]

I would like to know more about it. Please, It was fantastic!

[@paufer11]

That was a great activiy. Can you tell me the main aim, Subsidiary aim and the target language that you use for that activity?? Please I need that info for my project. Thanks

[@adrianapeguero5620]

I think this is a great activity. I would also like to ask you for the worksheet you provide the students with. Thanks a lot.

[@jodasom]

Can I get the worksheet please?

[@fathinaser7541]

did you get the worksheet ?

[@TonksToza]

Lovely demonstration of this idea. Can you post the worksheet please?

[@sandrasandia]

@lackadaddyz THIS IS NOT A TBL CLASS WHERE THE MAIN AIM IS TO HAVE STUDENTS "DISCOVER" THROUGH COMMUNICATIVE ACTIVITIES. HERE, IT SEEMS TO ME THAT HER MAIN AIM IS TO HAVE THEM SPEAKING, WHICH IS FULFILLED, BUT WHAT DID THEY "NOTICE" SHE GAVE THEM EXAMPLES OF WHAT THEY WERE SUPPOSE TO PRODUCE. NOT A TBL CLASS.

[@MrChinchilla_hn]

Thank you for the sample. I would really like to see the application in EFL for any grade in junior school.

[@juliethcamilamartinezcruz4429]

Excellent :) I like a lot... I would like to know, what should I include in the guideline to do this activity

[@lalatahinaherimanitraandri2159]

Why did you choose Madagascar

[@isacris34]

Loved it! Would you share the handout/document?

[@AVIJITDAS-ty4ki]

Thank you madam, very interesting discussions.

[@shobhaahirrao1866]

Very imformative lession mam🙏👍

[@salahaddina.z467]

thanks madam. actually you had a very very good teaching.

[@tulo121]

excellent video. I really enjoy it and it is a very good idea this TBL activity. Thank you so much and by the way, you are really pretty.

[@BridgeTEFL]

@makinawdandy6699 We do have videos for error correction techniques as part of our library of videos. To see a list of topics we offer, check out TEFLVideos online!

[@EdwardKeyte]

good English video, Thank you. I'll share with my students.

[@pthompson2113]

Great video!

[@Latingirl3011]

Hey thanks for sharing. Can anyone tell me a task to teach "shopping habits,expressing like /dislike" Thanks

[@earthdome11]

This is a great video, and pretty helpful. Do you have any other tips on how to keep an active class? Thank you :-)

[@s4pitri]

this is good method i think. thank you for inspired me.. may i used your method in my class? n may i ask the question that you give to student?? i still confuse what kind of question that must given to student.. thank you before.. this a great video. thank you

[@BridgeTEFL]

@yunita311 This video was filmed at our school in Denver, Colorado. It was made about 2 years ago now. Unfortunately, we don't know exactly how many students were in the class. Good luck with your project!

[@bodunchar]

In a natural learning environment (play) the parent would verbalise what the child is doing, "now you are drawing a house" etc etc. Perhaps you could adapt this by introducing basic play tasks and getting the children to repeat

[@WMyArt1]

Please help with teaching English using Problem-based Learning. Many thanks.

[@BridgeTEFL]

@pooch18 I'm glad you enjoyed it! We actually have over 100 videos on our website, TEFLVideos. Take a look! BridgeTEFL

[@davidzack4753]

[@Whore845available]

Is it a game or a lesson?

[@jasontsing203]

This is great! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@88lafe]

great job. But what I don't understand the difference between Task based learning and project based learning. Isn't it project based what you have done with your students ?

[@adithyaadiga10]

Excellent speech

[@tutubointorreon]

Excellent TBL lesson

[@yakupaksu2821]

WHAT IS THIS LESSON'S AIM? I WAS SEARCHING SOME DETAILS ABOUT TEACHING ENGLISH . HERE IS AN EXAMPLE LESSON BUT ALL THE STUDENTS SPEAK ENGLISH VERY WELL ALREADY :)

[@susansang11]

Great video, thank you.

[@misticosan]

It is not always like that. Consider a multilingual class. In this particular situation Ss will be forced to use the little language they have.

[@alannewson852]

Great lesson - thanks for sharing this :)

[@JBCamot]

Jajajajajajajajajajajjajaj,very funny comment "eyadoshy" . You are right when it comes to saying about the teacher.she is really gorgeous.

[@ricgzmora]

great video, keep posting!

[@MrsRuhiyye]

Just a great lesson sample!!!

[@inspectorjavert70]

You obviously don't teach EFL. This is absolutely a TBL activity. The biggest difference in a task and an exercise is that the outcome is not supposed to be language-based in a task-based lesson, where in an exercise, it is. And the lesson could also be vocabulary-based, there doesn't always need to be a grammar focus, or it can be skills-based. The production is what is important in a TBL activity. She did quite well.

[@Boxer-a1]

Very nice a great lesson!

Very nice.

[@Uncle5cary]

The task seems a bit too complicated. Usually what happens is that they start jabbering away in their native language.

[@sunilprajapati2310]
