4. CONTROLLER
The most common teacher role.
They are in charge of the class and
the activities.
Teachers fronted-classroom.
Teacher take the roll, tell students
things, organise drills and read loud.
Disadvantages
Denies students Access to
their own learning.
Cuts down on opportunities
for students to speak.
Lacks on variety in
activities and classroom
atmosphere.
5. PROMPTER
Teachers need to do it
sensitively and
encouraginly , but with
discretion.
Disagvantages
If teachers are too adamant
they risk initiative away from
the students.
If theachers are to retiring
they may not supply the rigth
amount of encouragement.
6. PARTICIPANT
Teachers may want to join in
an activity not as teachers,
but as a participant in their
own rigth.
For the teacher, participating
in an activity is more
enjoyable than acting as a
resource.
Students will enjoy having
the theacher with them.
BE CAREFUL! IT MAY BE
UNFAIR.
7. RESOURCE
• No teacher know everything about
the language.
• If you don´t know the anwser,
guide the student as where they
can look for information.
• Encourage students to use
resource materials for themselves.
• No need to anwser each question,
direct students to use dictionaries,
• Don´t show hesitasion or fear,
students will lose confidence in
teachers.
8. TUTOR
Teachers work with individuals or small
groups.
Pointing students in directions they
have not yet thought of taking.
The term implies a more intimate
relationship than that of the controller
or organiser.
Teachers will allow more personal
contact and real chance for students to
supported and helped.
10. THE TEACHER AS PERFORMER
Each teacher performs differently.
Each teacher has many different performance styles depending on
the situation.
We should describe how teachers should play their roles.
ACTIVITY HOW THE TEACHER SHOULD PERFORM
1. Team game Energeticaly, encouragingly, clearly, fairly
2. Role play Clearly, encouragingly, retiringly, supportively
3. Teacher Reading aloud Commandingly, dramatically, interestingly
4. Whole- class listening Efficiently, clearly, supportively
15. THE TEACHER AS LANGUAGE MODEL
• Dialogues
• Draw on the board
• Animate the performance.
• Poems.
• Reading circles, primary school.
• The content and the way that it is
handled will be significally different.
• Reading passages aloud capture
students imagination.
