This is the stage of a lesson where we work on vocabulary and listening.

Prior to playing the video in class, I sent it to my student so he could watch it by himself so we discussed how much of it he managed to understand on his own. This is part of my project of getting him to a level where he can cope with as many native and non-native accents as possible.

In class, I ask him a few CCQs to help improve his vocabulary and we work on comprehension. Here’s three reasons why I do that I can:

• expose him to a range of native and non-native speaker accents

• show him language used in real in everyday contexts

• to work as a facilitator rather than a lecturer.

Here’s what I mean:
