TEACHING BELIEFS

BELIEFS

Beliefs about language: for me to know languages are very important as the saying “knowledge is power”, I think that to know a different language help us to be open minded, to know more about different cultures, to get in touch with more people and with more knowledge than the usual we can get if we do not another language, in conclusion for me language are the doors to the entire world and you can go around it whenever you want.

Beliefs about learning: I think learning is a never ending process, we learn every day from every one, every situation, everything and so on. Besides I think that the learner must be aware of the learning process and must be willing to gain knowledge. 

Beliefs about teaching: teaching similar to learning, it is an ongoing process because every time that you are teaching, you are learning. To have a successful teaching there are many factors to take into account such as the aptitude and attitude of the teacher for doings things well, the resources, the time constrains, the kind of activities. At the same time the need for reflection by the teacher to improve this process. Teaching is not just about linguistics but to guide how to be critical thinkers and human beings.

Beliefs about language teaching: this is a process where the teachers and the learners are both the center of the language, it involves a mutual teaching and learning understanding. The teaching and the learner must be willing to success in this process and must be aware of their potential outcomes, and their pros and cons and must reflect on those to choose a path that guides to get the desired goals.
