Inhalt: In this course, we will explore what it takes to be an effective English teacher in the diverse landscape of the German school system. On one hand, this journey is deeply personal, as you discover your unique teaching style. On the other hand, it’s guided by a clear framework of proven methods and techniques that will help you navigate the classroom with confidence. Becoming the teacher you aspire to be is not an overnight transformation—it’s a process that unfolds over the course of your Bachelor’s and Master’s studies, and continues as you gain experience beyond university. This is one of the key long-term goals of your academic journey: to develop the most effective way for you to teach English. The starting point of this journey is your portfolio—a tool for self-reflection that you will build on throughout this course, helping you think critically about your identity as a teacher. Studying ‘Second Language Acquisition’ (SLA) is essential in understanding the fascinating process of how students learn a second language. In the lecture, you will gain an overview of both the established facts and ongoing debates within the field of SLA. The undisputed facts form the foundation of modern English teaching, while the debates in both the lecture and this seminar will encourage you to ask the most important question during your studies: Why? Why do certain methods work, and why do others not? Asking 'why' will guide you in developing your personal approach to teaching.
