One paragraph can hardly express my gratitude and to cover what I learned from UVA Startalk program. Even though I might not be able to use everything I learned from the program about task-based learning, the core principle of task based learning is deeply embedded in my classroom. I tried to create authentic environment for my students so they can learn through real-life situations which is very inviting for the language learners. Also another insight I had was that as teachers we should limit the amount of talking we have in class and try to provide more opportunities for the students to express themselves . This is a common mistake we tend to make as teachers since we are always trying to provide as many instructions as we can so the students don’t make any mistakes. However, as much as we want to provide more input we should still focus on the target language output. These are the two most important insights after I went back to my classroom.
