Learning Reflections
Seminar in English Language Teaching
World Englishes
Today, We preseted our discussion of last week about Global English, ESL, EFL and EIL. After that, teacher asked us to watch the video of David crystal for learning "World Englishes". He is one of my favorite speaker because he pronounce the words perfectly and his accent and fluency are wonderful. He talked about English in each country that is different in some aspect and some meaning. He said that every countries use a variety of English and this is because culture, myth, legends, the food that people eat, the folklore that people have, the songs, the dance is the institutions which talk about in English. English is used in worldwide, so it is used in various style to communicate. After we watched the video, teacher asked us to discuss about the video and presented the discussion in front of the class. And finally, teacher summarized the concept of World English that we have presented.
For my problem in learning today, I think I have a problem with listening because I cannot listen in some words that him said although he spoke cleary. So, I tried to improve my listening skill with the videos on youtube and I also practiced to listen native speaker accent.
I like learning style for today because I like watching something that I can practice my English skill and I think English is necessary for students, so this style is suitable with learning in current.
