Good evening all,
I need some help please and advice.
I �ll be starting a new course for 7 students who have failed their beginner English course twice. Their main problem is a lack of the basics.They are unable to read, which in turn affects their reading, writing and listening ,as they are unable to recognise and process the sounds and therefore are not able to spell correctly .They �ve never been taught phonetics and so struggle to hear and transcribe what they hear. THey are between 18 and 20 years old.
Can you suggest any helpful books websites and particularity, suggestions for a syllabus, with ideas for basic outlines of learner expectations and outcomes/ targets.
I also need to give them extra work to do in the computer lab like very easy web quests or ideas for beginner computer based CALL type lessons.
I know it �s a tall order, but I was loaded with it today and I need to produce a miracle by Saturday, our week starts on Sat and ends on Wednesdays.
Any suggestions and help would be most welcome.Thanks in advance.
