Alice asked:What can I do if students do not like English? (primer año de secundaria)

As everybody knows English is taught in High School (learners have never seen any word in English but heard something from their brothers or sisters)so learners come to their English classes with some views about and attitudes towards learning English. These attitudes are formed by the social environment in which they grow up and by people around them.

What I tell you is to be aware of these attitudes as they can influence leraner’s desire and motivation to learn and be successful in learning English.

* Be patient

* Be prepared for difficult moments

* Be friendly and understand them

Another thing we can do is to check  our teaching method and include different activities or games in order to have positive classes for our learners.
