THE COURSE PLAN Name of the Teacher Name of the Student Level of the student Walter Lee Alberto Minguez (31 years) Intermediate (B1) Syllabus Type: Skills based and Topic based Course Aims: By the end of the course, the student will be better able to… 1. Improve on his English speaking and listening (conversation) abilities as well as his pronunciation with regards to employment interviews and Increase his English vocabulary in the work place. 2. Improve on his General English to better communicate with English (L1) friends. 2 Course Rationale: ( 994 words) For this assignment I have decided to use two different syllabus types being the Skills - based Syllabus as well as the Topic -based Syllabus. The skills –based will be aimed at the abilities that the student needs and requires to achieve the desired outcome. These needs were mentioned by the student in the student interview as well as the questionnaire the student filled out. I will be covering all the aspects of English in the course being reading, writing, listening and speaking , grammar will also be included. The lessons will include listening to selected articles and this will also include gist listening as well as words w hich would be used in the work environment. The topic -based syllabus will be including the student’s information from the questionnaire and interview that was completed and done before the course was being prepared. It will include some of the topics of in terest that were mentioned, by selecting the student interests, the student should be more motivated and have a greater desire to participate in the lesson as well as in the homework handed out to complete for the following lesson. The topics that I have selected were decided upon from what the student had said in his interview as well as his questionnaire answers. The topics will cover words that are used in the work place and they will better his business English as well as his confidence when communicat ing with work colleagues. I have also used authentic material for all the lessons and some lessons also include the student’s interests being football and the environment / current affairs. There is also humour included in the lessons, which he mentioned he would also like to have in the lessons. The reason I have chosen this target language / skill is , once again , it is what was in the original interview / questionnaire answers , with him stating that he want to improve his L2 in order to better his job prospects in Leeds in the field that he has studied being industrial engineering . He also enjoys spending time with his English (L1) friends and wants to improve his communication skills with them. The rationale behind the structure of the course, e.g. why is it in this order? The Reason for this order is what the course study material suggested although I could not actually find a course book that related to this type of syllabus .( searched many we b sites) , choosing the skill and topic based syllabus was because what his needs and aims were . The course that I have planned will cover his needs and aims in the areas that he had selected as being important to him , these being speaking, listening, writing , grammar etc. I have tried to cover some of these in the first 5 lessons of the entire package that he has chosen. How the course will meet the learner’s needs, with the lessons, I have decided to select work as the topic for the first lesson. This lesson will focus on listening and speaking and there is a short video on 10 phrasal verbs used in the work place which will be watched and then discussed, I will also CCQ him to confirm his understanding of the work covered in the lesson.
