GENERAL INFORMATION

Number of students: 20

CLASS PROFILE
The students are between the ages of 16 and 30, there 11 women and 9 men. Most of them work,
some are university students and two are studying at school.
As a whole group they are a bit below the level. They are quite reluctant to participate and that is
why it is necessary to nominate them. They have some problems with grammar (tenses) they tend to
omit or make up words, and pronunciation issues (intonation). However, when they are asked to
work in pairs or groups they are willing to do so. I also noticed that they need prompts in order to
express their opinion and ideas. I also have noticed that they use their mother tongue (Spanish)
when they are not being heard by me and that is why I need to be monitoring so as not to give them
chances to use Spanish.
Their motivation level is average, they told me they need English for their work and some of them
want to learn to find a good job when they finish their studies.
BACKGROUND
The classes are held form Monday to Friday at 7:00 am, and they last one hour and a half each. They
have been studying about using the future for plans and predictions, also vocabulary related to
communication. In the next lessons they will be watching a video about the internet and they will
have to write a memo to a group of people.
Youve lost me
Pronunciation Objective:
My students will be able to intonate, stress and pronounce the phrases that are taught through
extensive drilling.
Examples:
Youve lost me
Speaking Objective:
My students will be able to express accurately and appropriately if they misunderstand some
information and ask for clarification through conversations.
Example:
I didnt catch any of that, can you say that again?
Personal Objectives: as it is very important in the learning process, I will conduct drilling more
extensively. I will also monitor to be a resource for my students and not an intruder.
