A Database of Classroom English in Communicative Language Teaching

Saturday, June 12th, 2004, 3:00 PM - 4:00 PM

Speaker: Kumiko Miyamoto

In Japan, there are a lot of English teachers who are not confident in using English in their classrooms. That can deprive the learners of their chances to learn. One reason why the teachers of English in Japan are reluctant to conduct their classes in English is that their knowledge of classroom English is limited. Kumiko Miyamoto assumes that if they know more expressions to conduct and control the class in English, their communicative competence will improve. Considering these facts, Miyamoto has made a database of classroom English for those teachers who wish to improve their communicative competence.
This meeting is followed by A Unified Approach to Integrated English, from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM.
