Make sure to give a good, in-depth analysis of what CCQs are, their function, how to do them successfully, and of course, make sure to clearly show the importance of using them in class with your learners.10.

Word associationd. Scale11. Explain the difference between cognates and false cognates.Cognates:False cognates:Give a brief overview of what each of them mean before discussing what the difference is between them.

It?s really important that your opinion is in this question as this is what a question with the command verb ?evaluate? is looking for.13. Demonstrate your knowledge of the importance of graded language in the classroom.a. Explain what is meant by the term graded languageb. Describe graded language that should be used to teach learners at various levelsc. Summarize the benefits of using graded languageNote: Your answer must cover all of the points mentioned.a. Graded language:b.Description of graded language in the classroom:Examples:i) Elementary level:ii) Intermediate level:iii) Advanced level:c. The benefits of using graded language:This question has three points to cover and it is very important that all three are done so comprehensively. See below for advice on each:Simply explain what the term ?graded language? means - what is it?In your answer template we offer you the levels elementary, intermediate and advanced. You need to either explain how language should be graded and given to classes at those levels, or write the EXACT speech that a teacher would give to a group of learners in the classroom. This means using speech marks ?...? and writing the exact words that the teacher would say to be understandable to each level. Make sure that the elementary language is simple and uses simple grammar, the intermediate a little harder but not too difficult, and the advanced should be ?normal? language that you would use with a native speaker. It?s important to note that not all language for advanced level should be ?advanced? (it would be weird to use the most complex grammar and vocabulary for everything), but just make sure that advanced level examples are noticeably more difficult in terms of its complexity than intermediate, and that intermediate level language is more complex than elementary.Top tip: Consider using the same topic over three levels to better highlight the differences in language.**Additional Note: One of the best and easiest ways for a teacher to increase the complexity of language when grading language for different levels is to introduce different grammar tenses (For example for beginner learners using the present simple tense and for advanced learners using the future perfect tense) as sometimes more complicated vocabulary sounds unnatural.Try to think of two or three benefits of using graded language in the classroom, and also consider thinking about what might happen if you didn?t grade your language to a particular group of learners.14. Compare the strengths and weaknesses of common teaching methodologies.DeductiveStrength:Weakness:InductiveStrength:Weakness:The Communicative ApproachStrength:Weakness:The focus of this question is to compare the strengths and weaknesses of various teaching methodologies. You don?t need to compare them with each other, you only need to compare the strengths and weaknesses of each individual method. In the response template, we have included the deductive, inductive, and communicative approach as these are the most commonly used methodologies. Make sure to label them clearly so that it?s very obvious where the strengths and weaknesses are for each one. You are welcome to choose different methodologies if you wish, but try to aim for a minimum of three.15. Demonstrate your understanding of learners' needs:a. Identify and explain the three most common types of learnerb. Describe how to determine the needs of learnersc. Explain the potential difficulties of determining learners' needs in the online environmentd. Explain how to match learners' needs to appropriate teaching techniques and activitiesNote: Your answer must cover all of the points mentioned.a.Learner type 1:Explanation:Learner type 2:Explanation:Learner type 3:Explanation:b. How to determine the needs of learners:c. The potential difficulties of determining learners' needs in the online environment:d. Activities and techniques for different types of learners:i) Visual learners activity:Explanation of activity:ii) Auditory learners activity:Explanation of activity:iii) Kinaesthetic learners activity:Explanation of activity:This question has two command verbs: 1) ?identify?, 2) ?explain.? That means you have to identify 3 types of learners, and then explain what each type is and what the characteristics for that type of learner are.Here, you need to think about how you can find out what the needs of your students are. How can you do that efficiently? It?s not a great idea to ask them what level they are or what their favourite teaching style is, so how could a teacher find this information out from a group of learners?In this section, you need to explain some difficulties of determining learners? needs in the online classroom. Think about the nature of online classes and how this might make it more difficult to find out why your learners are learning English.Finally, you need to comment on how you would match teaching techniques or activities in the classroom to learners? needs once you discovered what they were. For example, what activities would you do if you found out many of your students were visual learners? What if they all had a huge passion for sports? What if they had very rarely practised writing skills before but now need to pass an exam? What activities or teaching techniques would you use and why? Think of three ?learner needs? and write teaching techniques or activities that would suit them in the classroom. Don?t forget to explain about the teaching techniques or activities that you've chosen
