"Curriculum"

         The way to teaching and evaluation completely must be effective to design curriculum. Before you can design, you have to comprehend about elements of the curriculum. To help you to be more efficient and effective as a curriculum editor, you might need to consider one or all of the following:
         First of all, contents will help to provide opportunities for learners can learn follows the objectives. Teacher might need to think and decide creation activities are appropriate students level and classroom. Next, standard allows teachers and students to be on the same page by specifying how teachers and students will meet their education goals, including specific concepts, order, or instructional materials. It is something used to measure or estimate the quality or degree of something, for example, “how good a piece of work is”. Lastly, objective means the thing that shows what learners can learn. Moreover, objective is basic tools that underlie all planning and strategic activities.        
         To sum up, as we as teacher in the future, we must to know about elements of the curriculum. The curriculum must represent the most important knowledge, skills, and attributes that schools want their students to acquire because these learning outcomes will serve as the basis of assessment instruments. Likewise, instructional methods should be appropriate for the designed curriculum.

"Communicative Language Teaching (CLT)"

           Communicative language teaching is intended as introduction to the communicative approach for teachers who want to provide opportunities in the classroom for their students to engage in real life communication in the target language. There are three major points of communicative teaching language teaching consist of principles of CLT, communicative competence, and the activities used in CLT.
          At the beginning, using communication language learning in classroom, teacher must to know the principles of CLT. Main point of principles are make real communication, provide opportunities, be to learnt of learners’ errors, develop both accuracy and fluency, and link the different skills. All of these are the principles of CLT that teacher must consider.
          Second, there are four aspects of communicative competence include the following grammatical competence refer to linguistic,  social cultural elements refers to an understanding of the social context in which communication takes place, discourse how meaning is represented in relationship to the entire discourse or text, and strategic competence refer to how to solve the problems.
          Third, the activities which are use in CLT include the following. Seeking to develop students’ communicative competence by teaching grammar in the context. In addition, creating the need for communication and interaction, teaching grammatical knowledge inductively, using content that is relevant to students’ lives and interest, and using authentic materials to create interests.
          On the whole, communicative language teaching makes use of real-life situations. In order to encourage the students to speak English, many teachers should not be worry about grammar and pronunciation and motivate them to speak English. Otherwise, assessment of students’ performance will not fair.

" Speaking Skill "

         In today's, English language is the most common language spoken everywhere. It has been playing a major role in many sectors including jobs, business, and education etc. Speaking skill is difference from the other skill. Because the other three you can do alone, but speaking skill you cannot do alone. That is why importance to find somebody to speak with and try to do speaking activities for practicing. Thee are many techniques and tasks to teach speaking English.

         First of all, information gap is a good activity to practice because students must use the target language to share that information. Secondly, jigsaw are a bidirectional information gap. Each person in pair or group has some information the other person need. Thirdly, the hot seat aim to make students relaxed and exciting to speak English. Another kind of activities is practicing conversation in real situation. It mean that we can speak English in every where. For instance, at school, if you go to class, you should use the opportunity to speak to your teacher and other students. If your teacher asks you a question, take the opportunity to answer. In addition, songs and video is the best way to practice speaking English. Listen to the words of English language song that you like. Then repeat them to yourself and try to sing with music. Repeat the words as many time as possible until they become automatic. Soon you will be singing the whole song.
       
         Speak lots of your friends and do many activities can improve your spoken English by speaking English in different situations. If you want to speak English better in the future, speak it as much as possible. Trying to speak English make you have more self-confident trying to speak English. And then, you can speak fluency and accuracy.

“ Teaching with Technology  ”

           “Technology” refers to advancements in the methods and tools we use to solve problems or achieve a goal. In the classroom, technology can encompass all kinds of tools from low-tech pencil, paper, and chalkboard, to the use of presentation software, or high-tech tablets, online collaboration and conferencing tools, and more. So, we can said that technology are worldwide resources, because of we can find everything that you want by using technology. We must to know that how we apply teaching with technology are the best tools into our teaching.
Firstly, before teacher brings technology to teaching, teacher think and select the best method and materials to achieving the same result. It has a lot of technology to teach in English language. For instance, online collaboration tools, such as those in Google Apps, allows students and instructors to share documents online, edit them in real time, and project them on a screen. This gives students a collaborative platform in which to brainstorm ideas and document their work using text and images.  In addition, presentation software (such as PowerPoint) enable instructors to embed high-resolution photographs, diagrams, videos, and sound files to augment text and verbal lecture content. Moreover, tablets can be linked to computers, projectors, and the cloud so that students and instructors can communicate through text, drawings, and diagrams. And another kind of technology is smartphones or mobile-phones are a quick and easy way to survey students during class. This is great for instant polling, which can quickly assess students’ understanding and help instructors adjust pace and content.

          In conclusion, I think teachers need to find a balance to teach the content, but also to integrate technology. Integrating technology is very easy to do in everyday activities. Teaching with technology provides opportunities to students can learn English language. Finally, an importance thing is motivate and encourage students.

" Teaching Listening Skill "

        Language learning depends on listening. Listening provides
 learners to interact in spoken communication. Effective language instructors show students how they can adjust their listening behavior to deal with a variety of situations, and listening purposes. They help students develop a set of listening strategies and match appropriate strategies to each listening situation. I divided teaching listening skill into two parts consist of kind of listening, and strategies.
        You should know that there are different kinds of listening. First, Listening for gist, you listen in order to understand the main idea of the text. Listening for specific information is the second kind of listening. You want to find out specific details, for example key words. Final, Listening for detailed understanding. You want to understand all the information the text provides.
        Strategies to practice your listening skill is pre, while, and post. Before you listen, think about the topic of the text you are going to listen to. What do you already know about it? What could possibly be the content of the text? Which words would you want to look up? After that,
While you are listening, it is not necessary to understand every single word. Try to ignore those words that you think are less important anyway. Lastly, after listening think about the text again. Have you understood the main points?Remember the speculations you made before you listened. Did they come true? Review your notes.

        To conclude, Because of need quality for teaching students, especially teaching listening skills in the classroom. Without the skill of listening, there can be no language learning, and hence no communication. Surely, the most important interaction human beings are involved in.

“ Assessment And Testing ”

          Assessment and testing are an important role for teaching English language. Because of in learning we must to assess in students’ task, students are often assessed and tested to see how well they have done. How well they are doing or how well they perform in standard exam. I divided this topic into three points. It begin with types of assessments. The second point is how to making test, and the last point is types of test item.  
          Assessment is a continuing process to observe that class objectives and goals are met by the test. The first point is type of assessment. It consist of formative, summative, informal, diagnostic, placement, progress, achievement, and proficiency. Formative happens when we test students so that we can help them to better next time. Next, summative is testing their knowledge at the end of something or a some semester. The another types of assessment is informal. It means that decide what to do next in lesson. Diagnostic is the fourth type, we can give diagnostic test at any stage during a course to help us plan future lesson. In addition, placement test when they first arrive at language teaching institution. Progress is the way to see how students are getting on. Moreover, achievement assess at the end of something, such as a semester. The final type of assessment is proficiency. It measure a student’s language ability.
          The second points is how to making test. It can divided into six steps. First step is decide on the balance of items in a test. Next, teacher have to be extremely carful to write “Rubric”. The third step is giving them to colleague or student to try. Decided on our assessment criteria is the fourth step to making test. The important step is test need to have validity. List exactly what it is we want to measure is the last step.
          Testing is a method to measure people’s abilities, knowledge or performance. We can divide types of test item into two types. There are direct test item and indirect test item. Direct test item is the way that teacher measure want to know about students’ ability language. Indirect test is teachers measure students skill indirectly, for example, teachers measure listening skill but students write in the blank etc. There are many kinds of indirect test item consist of gap fill, cloze, multiple choice, true/false, and jumbled sentence.
          In conclusion,  assessment, testing, and evaluation in the factors to teach and measure students. Teachers must to know about all of these consist of how to making test, types of assessments, and types of test item. Teachers should be take all of these to use with their students appropriately. Moreover, teacher must to know that evaluation is the process of making participate judgments base on criteria and evidence.

" Teaching Reading Skill "

        Teaching of reading comprehension skills will help English language learners apply these strategies. There are many strategies that students may learn to assist them with their reading.  These strategies are applied before students read the text to activate prior knowledge, during the reading of the text to deepen understanding, and after reading the text to increase the generalization and application to new situations.  Generally, however, students need strategies that support the following:
        Previewing is the first step, students must to reviewing titles, section headings, and photo captions to get a sense of the structure and content of a reading selection. Second step is predicting. Students learn by using knowledge of the subject matter to make predictions about content and vocabulary and check comprehension; using knowledge of the text type and purpose to make predictions about discourse structure; using knowledge about the author to make predictions about writing style, vocabulary, and content. Skimming and scanning are the third step to help students about reading skill. They must to use a quick survey of the text to get the main idea, identify text structure, confirm or question predictions. In addition, guessing from context, using prior knowledge of the subject and the ideas in the text as clues to the meanings of unknown words, instead of stopping to look them up. Last step to practice reading skill is paraphrasing when students stopping at the end of a section to check comprehension by restating the information and ideas in the text.

        All of these provide teachers with effective, research-based classroom strategies to help.  Teacher demonstration, modeling, and follow-up independent practice are critical factors for success. Student discussion following strategy instruction is also helpful.

" Teaching Writing Skill "

        Writing skill is an important part of communication.  Good writing skills allow you to communicate your message with clarity. We can said that Writing is the primary basis upon which your work, your learning, and your intellect will be judgedin college, in the workplace, and in the community. So, teachers and students  must to know strategies of writing skill following.
        The first step is pre-writing. This is the planning phase of the writing process, when students brainstorm, research, gather and outline ideas, often using diagrams for mapping out their thoughts. Audience and purpose should be considered at this point, and for the older students, a working thesis statement needs to be started. The second step is drafting. Students create their initial composition by writing down all their ideas in an organized way to convey a particular idea or present an argument. Audience and purpose need to be finalized. Revising is the third step of process writing. Students review, modify, and reorganize their work by rearranging, adding, or deleting content, and by making the tone, style, and content appropriate for the intended audience. The goal of this phase of the writing process is to improve the draft.
In addition, Editing is the fourth step. At this point in the writing process, writers proofread and correct errors in grammar and mechanics, and edit to improve style and clarity. Having another writers feedback in this stage is helpful. The final step is Publishing. In this last step of the writing process, the final writing is shared with the group. Sharing can be accomplished in a variety of ways, and with the help of computers, it can even be printed or published online.
        To conclude, writing is one of the important ways of expressing your thoughts, and communicating ideas and views to others. All of these is the process of writing. If you write follow these process, you can write good writing.

Afterwards, he catches students ‘attention by open the very interesting clip of Phuket tourism. There are effectives activities in his teaching, one of them is group discussion. He asks students to sit in group and discuss concerning to the handout provided “Keeping Patong beach clean”, who, what, where, when and why.  In this time students have an opportunity to discuss together and he walks around to encourage the students.
Moreover, at the end of lesson, he asks students to summarize the lesson together by using the question “What we have learnt today?” It seems a good lesson; however, there is something needed to be improved. For those things that needed to be improved are time management that is not appropriate with the activities, and the rubric organizing is not well matched with the content of the lesson and students’ task.
           In my view,  “Let’s go to Phuket” lesson is an effective lesson if it is improved and developed appropriately. Montree’s materials are very interesting, but in some activities like language focus is quite bored. Nevertheless, it can be improved by using teaching techniques that well matched with the contents. It not only the knowledge that students can receive from this lesson, but also the morality by helping the others is a good thing for learners.

Nunthiya Garasi’s miro teaching test
Nunthiya introduces students about the new vocabulary, and then she lets students match the picture with the correct words. I think that it is a great idea to teach students the vocabulary by game. Moreover, her classroom language is quite good.
Nevertheless, there are some mistakes that she can do it better if she improves it. The recording of the conversation relating to the lesson “The beaches are disappearing” represents of her enthusiasm in teacher, but she can do it better, if she native speakers in her audio recording.
             In my view “The beaches are disappearing” is one of good lessons to teach English with public mind, if teacher designs the goal and the content appropriately.  In addition, Nunthiya s’ teaching materials are very interesting, but in some activities need to be to developed to be the better ones. However, “The beaches are disappearing” is the lesson that enhances students to think the ways to take care the world and public mind to save the environment and help the others.

Sakkarin Jinkhunthon’s micro teaching test
At first, Sakkarin introduces the lesson by let’s students do activity that it is jigsaw puzzle about room in a house. Afterwards, he divide students into four groups for do this activity, and give a set of jigsaw puzzle to each group and students inside group help to sort out it correctly. The groups that finish the jigsaw puzzle, he will ask them “What is this picture about?” It is a good activity for students to learn the vocabulary, and this is a good point for his teaching.
However, there is the thing that I really want him to improve is classroom language. It can be seen from his words that use many yes/ no questions. It is very important for the teacher to use the classroom language or speak English correctly as much as possible.
In my view, it can be said that “Let’s to organize your room” is one of the interesting lessons, especially in jigsaw game. Sakkarin’s materials are quite good with a lot of authentic materials. Nevertheless, his language is needed to improve. Finally, Sakkarin’s lesson and micro teaching “Let’s to organize your room” can be the useful lesson for the students if he fixes it and never stop to develop teaching techniques.

Next, teacher picked up the language focus and explained how to use it. Before finishing the class, teacher summarized the lesson again and said good bye.

           In my view, the overall teaching is quite good but something should be developed. First thing I would like her to change the way in teaching language focus because it seems boring.  Students will not pay attention on it as possible. The next one , the handout and the exercise she provided should be decorated more pictures and color in order to capture students' interest.

Nutchanat Sukbarn's micro teaching test
          Nutchanat started with let students watching the video and let they guess what they are going to learn today. Most of students will enjoy to watching the video. That is the best way to persuade them to learn the next lesson. Teacher teaches vocabulary in the lesson. She played the audio of vocabulary and let students pronounce follow it. It is very good that use the picture of those words to show with the meaning and part of speech. Students will remember vocabulary better than they see only word. 
After that teacher give students to do work sheet and listen the audio 5 times. When students listen, they have to do the work sheet too and then they all have to check the answer together. Next activity is students have to create the conversation with their partner and do the information gap activity.
In my opinion, her personality is perfect said that she walked around classroom, checked students’ understanding etc. She spoke loudly but classroom language should be developed and teacher should gain more self - confident.

Supawadee Sisuwan's micro teaching test
Supawadee began the lesson with ask students to take care the tree at the school. That very good idea!  Before learning the lesson students have to learn vocabulary and teacher have audio of those word from native speaker to give to student to follow that will help them to learn the correct and the real pronunciation.
Moreover it has the conversation to give students to practice listening about telling direction and group work to try out their knowledge that they have learnt. Students have to use language to ask and answer the questions about where is their tree.
In my view, this lesson plan quite good but teacher should give more information how importance of the tree and why we should reserve the tree and maybe add the game to encourage students in learning language.

Daoratchada's micro teaching test
Daoratchada can create the fun activity and have authentic material to encourage students to learn effectively.  Moreover, the chant about how to sort rubbish, it is very interesting for students to remember what they have learnt.  The topic that teacher taught students can take it to use in their real life and support their public mind.
          In addition, teacher use task base learning that student can learn language from the task that they do. Students can try out their knowledge with learn the new at the same time. The aim, objectives and standard that teacher used are agreeably and teacher have the assessment that can check students’ knowledge outcome so it is very useful lesson plan. 
          In my view, all of students pay attention with those activities because she used authentic materials and create fun activities. but the thing that she should improve is her classroom language because it does not clear. She seems like less self - confident.

Atchara Nunchoopon's micro teaching test 
Atchara started with open the video about children tries to change the world by doing the simple activities like recycle things, plant the tree etc.  This will let students to pay attention what they are going to learn. For the next activity, Students listened the audio about how to save the Earth but the audio is too long and it not good for practicing listen and not appropriate with the students’ age. The good audio should be easy to listen and understand. Students will not boring to listen it.
Another activity is student worked in group. That gives opportunity to use the language to discuss their idea, saving the Earth with their friends. Group work is very good activity in class. It makes the class having the movement and students enjoy talking and sharing their opinion. Finally, students have to speak explaining the group idea in front of the class.
In my view,  her authentic materials are very good because they can call students' attention but the thing that she should improve is her classroom language because it does not clear. She seems like less self - confident. If she can improve her language, overall will be good .

                   Thidawan taught about ‘cleaning my house’. She started with show the pictures about rooms in house and asks students what we are going to learn today. After that, she shows the vocabulary for lesson and gave students repeat after sound for pronounce like the foreigner.
                   When started to the lesson she asked student about their house such as rooms at house and the activity that students did in their house. She opened conversation to students but she did not give a worksheet at first but she gave after students listened at twice times.
She divided students into five groups and gave a sentence. When students in each group read sentence they have to make conversation about situation given and present with role play.
                   In my idea, her taught is good because she wants students to think and practice by listening and speaking skills. She taught especial contents about cleaning house.
