Abstract:
In my article I want to share with my experience teaching English as a second language at the non language specialties.
As we teach students of different specialties it is so difficult for us to work with them because most of the students are from the village schools. They used only to read and translate the text and sentences. The majority of students remain passive, and work with only to memorize what the teacher emphasizes. I want to write how I achieved to speak in English.
First of all I taught my students to learn by heart three forms of the verbs and how to make up the sentences and to enrich their vocabulary. Then how to make up situations, write short stories with the new lexis.
And then how to work with the text, to make up a plan of the text, to write characteristics to the main heroes. At last how to spend debates and discussions.
I use interactive board in every lesson.
