ПЕРЕДМОВА ТА ЗАГАЛЬНІ МЕТОДИЧНІ ВКАЗІВКИ
Посібник складається з 20 тем, які можна використовувати у
довільному порядку в залежності від інтересів навчальної групи. В кожну
тему входять запитання, твердження-думки для обговорення та слова і фрази,
що рекомендуються для використання.
Вдалою стратегією поведінки викладача під час навчання усного
мовлення іноземною мовою є техніка, за якої викладач слухає студента і
лише занотовує граматичні та лексичні помилки, а також вдалі та невдалі
фрази. Тільки після закінчення відповіді викладач переходить до аналізу
усного тексту студента, не забуваючи підкреслювати і зразки правильного
оформлення думки. Звертаючи увагу на помилки, викладач не видає одразу
правильний варіант, а лише підказує зону помилки, наприклад: час дієслова
(past simple), артикль (article), або повторює помилкові слово чи фразу з
питальною інтонацією (“I’m student?”). Такий метод не порушуватиме
безперервність процесу говоріння, і оптимальніше забезпечуватиме хід усної
практики. Крім того, рекомендуємо викладачам уникати постановки
загальних питань (yes/no-questions) і користуватися виключно спеціальними
питаннями (wh-questions).
Посібник є складовою системи вправ імерсійного методу, розробленого
викладачем мовної школи «Language for us» і описаного в дослідницькій
статті наукового журналу «Молодий вчений» [1]. Основні положення методу:
1) заняття ведуться виключно іноземною мовою;
2) викладач не перебиває студента під час говоріння;

3) вивчення іноземної мови базується на виконанні вправ, спрямованих
на формування у студентів навичок говоріння і слухання;
4) викладач виступає у ролі організатора, партнера (співрозмовника) та
контролера;
5) форма заняття – парна та фронтальна робота.
