This unit is describing teaching techniques,methods as well as ways of correcting students' mistakes and suggesting some interesting activities for each stage of the lesson. As far as I understood from the unit English teaching methodologies include grammar-translation,audio-lingualism,PPP(presentation,practice and production),task-based learning,communicative language teaching , community language teaching,the silent way,suggestopaedia,the lexical approach. The important thing is whatever method the teacher is chosing to use, he/she must make sure the students are fully involved in the process of language learning and where possible students should be encouraged to discover the language by themselves.To involve srudents to the activities the teacher is supposed to use some elicitation techniques to ask thought-provoking questions, let the students guess what is in the picture or fill in the gaps. While using elicitation techniques , the ESL teacher has to be aware of the local culture, age and level of the students to avoid any embarassing situations or even hurting the students.
