Communicative language teaching

an important feature in today’s society. Teachers over the years created different philosophies about different types of characteristics a teacher should possess. Every teacher has a certain way of teaching that they think is the best.

In order to insure future candidates for education remain in education, they should go into a mentorship before they get to college. This epidemic has…

Writing is done in almost all professions. Whether a person is a police officer or an animator, there is always some writing that must be done. This is especially true for those who wish to become teachers, and therefore have to structure their entire career around the writings they prepare, such as creating lesson plans, handouts, and blog posts. Although it is obvious that high school English teachers are required to do quite a bit of writing in the classroom, people often forget that there is…

What many people do not know, however, is that the methods and strategies that teachers use can all be traced back to the five teaching philosophies. These philosophies, perennialism, progressivism, essentialism, reconstructionism, and existentialism, are either teacher or student based, and can greatly shape the way an individual teaches (Powell, 2015). Each philosophy differs on what should be taught, how it…
