A
teaching method comprises the principles and methods used for instruction.
Commonly used teaching methods may include class participation, demonstration,
recitation, memorization, or combinations of these. The choice of teaching
method or methods to be used depends largely on the information or skill that
is being taught, and it may also be influenced by the aptitude and enthusiasm
of the students.
Teaching English as a
foreign language (TEFL) refers to teaching English to students whose first
language is not English. TEFL usually occurs in the student's own country,
either within the state school system, or privately, e.g., in an after-hours
language school or with a tutor. TEFL teachers may be native or non-native
speakers of English.
Teaching English is a process to convey knowledge of English
from teachers to students in some ways. First, teaching English as a first
language. Second, teaching English as a foreign language. In indonesian,
English is taught as a foreign language, because Indonesians do not speak
English in their daily activities.
In an English course, there are four skills that must be
taught by teachers, namely: reading, writing, speaking and listening. Reading
activities needs accuracy to understand words in each paragraph so they know
true information. Learners needs accuracy structure in arranges words in
writing skills. listening needs accuracy in analyse what native speaker’s say.
Speaking needs accuracy in pronounce English words and
