WOMEN SPEAK ENGLISH BETTER THAN MEN,,
• The finding has been true for all EF EPI indices, an the gender gap, which narrowed in
2016 has widened again. Research into how boys and girls learn foreign languages has
shown that female students are more motivated, use a wider variety of strategies to retain
new information and are more willing to make mistakes. Women on the whole are also
more likely than men to finish secondary school and attend university.
BUT
• Unfortunately, businesses are not benefiting as much as they could from
women’s English skills. Studies have shown that women speak less in
meetings and negotiations than men and are interrupted more when they do
speak.

DEPED’S EXPECTED CORE STANDARD OF ENGLISH PROFICIENCY
OF STUDENT’S EACH TERM
• GRADE 12 - Students should be able to integrate communication and
language skills for creating meaning using oral and written texts, various
genres, and discursive contexts for personal and professional purposes.
HOW?
COMPETENCIES PROFICIENCY SCALE
• The NIH Proficiency Scale is an instrument used to measure one’s ability to
demonstrate a competency on the job. The scale captures a wide range of
ability levels and organizes them into five steps; from “Fundamental” to
“Expert”.
ADVANCED (applied)
You can perform the actions associated with this skill without assistance. You
are certainly recognized within your immediate organization as "a person to
ask" when difficult questions arise regarding this skill.
ATTRIBUTES:
• Focus is on broad organizational/professional issues;
• You have consistently provided practical/relevant ideas and perspectives on
process or practice improvements which may easily be implemented;
• You are capable of coaching others in the application of this competency by
translating complex nuances relating to this competency into easy to understand
terms;
• You participate in senior level discussions regarding this competency;
• You assist in the development of reference and resource materials in this
competency.
LEVEL OF PROFICIENCY
EXPERT (authority)
You are known as an expert in this area. You can provide guidance, troubleshoot and
answer questions related to this area of expertise and the field where the skill is used.
ATTRIBUTES:
• Focus is strategic;
• You have demonstrated consistent excellence in applying this competency across
multiple projects and/or organizations;
• You are considered the “go to” person in this area within NIH and/or outside
organizations;
• You create new applications for and/or lead the development of reference and
resource materials for this competency;
• You are able to diagram or explain the relevant process elements and issues in relation
to organizational issues and trends in sufficient detail during discussions and
presentations, to foster a greater understanding among internal and external colleagues
and constituents.
COMPETENCIES HELP EMPLOYEES TO:
• Understand the competencies expected in their job, the key behaviors they
should demonstrate, and the steps needed to increase their proficiency
levels
• Discuss with their supervisors the employee’s strengths, areas for growth, and
suggested training, and developmental activities
• Focus on specific training and development opportunities that will help them
grow and strive for excellence
• Discuss with employees their strengths, areas for growth, training, and
developmental activities
• Determine what type of skill sets are needed in the future, which helps
support succession planning.
WHAT IS THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PERFORMANCE AND
COMPETENCIES?
The relationship between relationship and competencies is INDIRECT.
As an employees increase their proficiency levels, their performance outputs generally
be expected to improve. Institutions whose employees have high proficiency levels
are institutions that would be expected to have superior organizational performance.
However, this is NOT always the case.
An individual may posses the required knowledge, skills, abilities and behaviors but
may be performing at a lower level than expected due to various factors:
Personal problems
Lack of focus
Job dissatisfaction
Negative reaction to organizational change,
Lack of organizational resources
Etc.

EXPECTED TEACHER COMPETENCIES
• Research reveals that how teachers instruct and these interactions with students is the
cornerstone around which to build effective schools in order to produce well-versed
graduates.
• There currently is an abundant knowledge-base to inform us that in schools teachers
play the critical role in student learning and achievement.
• Based on studies accumulated over the past 40 years on a key education driver,
teacher competencies offers practical strategies, practices, and rules to guide teachers
in ways to improve instruction that improves student performance and the quality of the
work experience.
• Four groupings of these competencies can help organize and simply for teachers what
they need to master to maximize their performance:
• classroom management,
• instructional delivery,
• formative assessment, and
• personal competencies.
• These four categories also provide the essential core around which decision makers can
construct teacher preparation, teacher hiring, teacher development, and teacher and
school evaluations.
WHAT ARE TEACHER COMPETENCIES?
• What separates effective teachers from ineffective ones, and how can this
information be used to support better teaching?
• Instructional delivery
• Classroom management
• Formative assessment
• Personal competencies (soft skills)
The research indicates that these competencies can be used to organize the
numerous specific skills and knowledge available for building effective
teacher development.
INSTRUCTIONAL DELIVERY
• Scope and sequencing: The teacher should teach the range of related skills and
the order in which they should be learned.
EFFECTIVE EXPLICIT INSTRUCTIONAL PRACTICES INCLUDES.
• High rates of responding for each student to practice the skill: The teacher
should provide sufficient opportunities for unpunished errors and ample
reinforcement for success.
A CLIMATE THAT MAXIMIZES LEARNING AND INDUCES A POSITIVE MOOD AND TONE .
Rules and procedures: Effective rules and procedures identify expectations and appropriate
behavior for students. To be effective, these practices must be observable and measurable.
• School-wide rules and procedures / Classroom rules and procedures
Proactive classroom management: These are the practices that teachers and administrators can employ to teach and
build acceptable behavior that is positive and helpful, promotes social acceptance, and leads to greater success in
school. The key to proactive classroom management is active teacher supervision. The practice elements that constitute
active supervision require staff to observe and interact with students regularly. The goal is to build a positive teacher-student
relationship by providing timely and frequent positive feedback for appropriate behavior, and to swiftly and consistently
respond to inappropriate behaviors.
Effective classroom instruction: The key to maintaining a desirable classroom climate is to provide students
with quality instructional delivery aligned to the skill level of each student. This enables students to
experience success and keeps them attentive.
Behavior reduction: These practices, designed to reduce problem and unacceptable behavior, are
employed in the event the first three strategies fail. Behavior reduction strategies include giving students
corrective feedback at the time of an infraction, minimizing reinforcement of a student’s unacceptable
behavior, and guiding students in how to behave appropriately.
FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT:
• Effective ongoing assessment, referred to in education literature as formative
assessment and progress monitoring, is indispensable in promoting teacher
and student success. It is frequently listed at the top of interventions for
school improvement
• Feedback, a core component of formative assessment, is recognized as an
essential tool for improving performance. Identified feedback as the single
most powerful educational tool available for improving student
performance.
• Formative assessment consists of a range of formal and informal diagnostic
testing procedures, conducted by teachers throughout the learning process,
for modifying teaching and adapting activities to improve student
attainment. Systemic interventions such as Response to Intervention (RtI)
THE FOLLOWING ARE THE PRO-ACTICE ELEMENTS OF
FORMATIVE ASSESSMENT
• Typically, the finest teachers display enthusiasm and excitement for the
subjects they teach. More than just generating excitement, they provide a
road map for students to reach the goals set before them.
• Equally significant, they are fluent in a multilayered set of social skills that
students recognize and respond to, which leads to greater learning. These
skills must be defined as clear behaviors that teachers can master for use in
classrooms.
INDISPENSABLE SOFT SKILLS INCLUDE
• Establishing high but achievable expectations
• Encouraging a love for learning
• Listening to others
• Being flexible and capable of adjusting to different situations
• Showing empathy
• Being culturally sensitive
• Embedding and encouraging higher order thinking along with teaching
foundation skills
• Having a positive regard for students
CONCLUSION
Teachers play the critical role in improving student achievement in schools. What
teachers do in the classroom is very crucial in the process.
THANK YOU.
