Thanks for these excellent tips! When doing choral repetition, I usually ask my students to wait for my signal (a clap) so they all repeat at the same time. It takes a little training but they quickly get it and loved it.
It's simply amazing! You guys are so sympathetic! It's encouraging. I have already used all these techniques ... and they never get old! I mean, I've been teaching for 25 years now \o/ thanks for this great video! Keep them coming
Wow, this is my technique in teaching .This is how I taught my students in kindergarten and elementary. It is very useful because no one is left alone.Everyone has got the chance to talk and participate in the speaking activity.
This is just amazing!! As a former english student I used to love drills, but I've been strugling to use it in class with my students. Thank you so much for the tips!
I've been using this method plenty of times specially in teaching new vocabulary. And I'm in love with your lovely and interesting techniques. Keep it up ❤😻💪
Thanks a lot ! its really something ) i ve been using some of them ,however several were a discovery - i am just looking forward to try them on my students. keep going on guys - i love the way you make videos and perform .
Thank you. Is there any research to backup these drills? Have they been compared to other practices, such as silent reading with a dictionary at hand, and been shown to yield better gains in vocabulary/grammar/pronunciation?
That's a good question. In my opinion drills are part of controlled practice. Where do they fit in Communicative Language Teaching (CLT)? In the controlled practice stage, mainly to fix any serious pronunciation errors that arise and to build fluency. Thus the focus is still on the meaning of the sentence in which the error has occurred, thus retaining some aspect of CLT, meaningful language. Chaining (not back-chaining) is what I'd call semi-controlled or semi-free practice because there is some communication and the teacher does not interrupt the activity.
Drilling is a technique that's great for improving speaking through something called 'chunking'. This is when we teach students to memorise set phrases and certain collocations as groups of words - for example 'In my opinion…' or 'Don't you think we should…'. By teaching them these chunks of language, you make it easier to think of what to say next since the chunk gives them the next few words automatically. It's a great way to improve speaking fluency. You can see some examples of chunks here: www.bbc.co.uk/learningenglish/english/course/lower-intermediate/unit-4/session-1/activity-5 Use it to give yourself a basic understanding and then try designing a lesson on the same principle. Good luck!
I´m so sorry. There´s no drilling contents in there. I´ve been teaching English for the OIl and Gas Industry for years. With those approaches the students will take forever to acquire the language. Nice communicators, though.

Drilling can be disruptive in the classroom. It also leaves holes in the walls.
Hey Richard, how's your hamster these days?
You are the best and I learn from it .

You guys are so fun! Love it!
Drilling is very important to English learners because they are able to memorize.
Oh my gosh I love this video thank you so much

Thank you. Is there any research to backup these drills? Have they been compared to other practices, such as silent reading with a dictionary at hand, and been shown to yield better gains in vocabulary/grammar/pronunciation?

Sets and Reps?
What is oral drilling?
Are oral drills communicative or controlled practices? Can you answer please ?
That's a good question. In my opinion drills are part of controlled practice. Where do they fit in Communicative Language Teaching (CLT)? In the controlled practice stage, mainly to fix any serious pronunciation errors that arise and to build fluency. Thus the focus is still on the meaning of the sentence in which the error has occurred, thus retaining some aspect of CLT, meaningful language.

You are great ❤
Can I use drilling to improve secondary students' speaking skill ?
Drilling is a technique that's great for improving speaking through something called 'chunking'.
