41 There is no need for children to
imitate and practise correct structures
as they will never need to produce
exactly the same structures
42 We do not need to teach children the
rules of the language as they can
infer these rules from the language
they are exposed to
43 In order for children to learn a
language, they need to engage in real
conversations with other speakers.
44 We should teach language by
presenting students with small
amounts of grammar and vocabulary
each time till the whole system is
presented to them
45 When judging the student’s ability to
use the language, the most important
criterion should be his/ her ability to
form grammatically correct
sentences
46 The teacher should correct
immediately all grammatical errors
students make, otherwise errors may
become persistent.
47 A textbook can never cater for all the
needs and interests of a particular
group of students. Therefore it
should be supplemented by the
teacher with other materials and
tasks.
48 The best way to teach a foreign
language is to teach the grammar and
vocabulary
49 The teacher’s feedback should
primarily focus on grammatical
errors
50 The teacher’s feedback should
primarily focus on errors which
obstruct communication
