I think that you aren´t the only one who has to face that kind of "speaking too much" problem, so don´t worry. You were my teacher (few years ago), and so, I know you are a great teacher, helpful and communicative.<BR/>To sum up this comment, I would like to ask you that I need your help cause I´m loosing my grammar and speaking English knowledge, because of my "horrible university technical English" in which I lost almost everything I´ve learned for years.<BR/>Hoping hearing from you soon,<BR/>Sincerely,<BR/>Flopy.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7424089475889306700.post-49438838848330898942007-09-17T18:37:00.000-07:002007-09-17T18:37:00.000-07:00I have eaten...I will try, as usual, to keep mysel...I have eaten...<BR/>I will try, as usual, to keep myself monitoring and let my students think for themselves and answer what they think.<BR/>Kisses,<BR/> LoreMaria Lorena Reciohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05930907133383067337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7424089475889306700.post-52673054386043253872007-09-13T13:03:00.000-07:002007-09-13T13:03:00.000-07:00Just to show you you're not alone at all: I rememb...Just to show you you're not alone at all: I remember some research conducted by Brown, over 20 years ago in the US. He concluded the average teacher pause (before rephrasing, for instance, when asking questions of the class) was ... 3 seconds! ;-) He argued that prevented students from processing information in order to answer anything but the silliest questions... In short, we would be preventing learning like that!<BR/><BR/>Food for thought...<BR/><BR/>Love,<BR/><I>Gladys</I>Gladys Bayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10637060860005714720noreply@blogger.com
