Expensive reading? | The (De-)Fossilization Diaries
http://scottthornburyblog.com/2013/10/13/expensive-reading/comment-page-1
A language teacher tries to crank up his Spanish. October 13, 2013. I’m about to embark on another long conference crawl, so I’ll be away from any direct contact with Spanish for two weeks. How can I maintain the momentum (that already seems to have been flagging since I took my intensive course at the end of the summer)? Fewer now that it is online, of course), let’s say I read 5000 words 300 days a year. That makes my annual exposure to written Spanish in the region of 1.5m words of running tex...If st...

A language teacher tries to crank up his Spanish. October 6, 2013. I am compulsively devouring phrases. I gobble up expressions like. It upsets me) and. Qué buen rollo tiene. How nice he is). It’s not just my reading of the literature on phraseology that impels me. It’s a gut-feeling that these phrases offer a shortcut to fluency, accuracy and idiomaticity. As a youngster I was a nerd avant la lettre,. This is true for first language acquisition and, arguably, for a second language too. ‘From the per...

A language teacher tries to crank up his Spanish. November 17, 2013. If, in last week’s post, I came across as a bit downhearted, this week I offer a pick-me-up. A couple of months into this project, a Spanish-speaking friend (let’s call him Andrés) generously offered to be my regular conversation partner, not as one half of an.

Reflections of the classroom. Feedback for the sake of feedback. October 20, 2014. I know feedback is important. One method I employ to garner feedback is to give my students a couple written questions every day. I then take the responses and read them. I comment on them. Or I ask questions. Often times I request more specific information. All well and good. But what is it all for? In my previous post I discussed losing my focus.
