    The document discusses challenges in teaching English for communicative competence and possible improvements. The challenges include diversity among learners, limited resources, and language barriers. Suggested improvements are using various teaching strategies to accommodate different learners, utilizing online resources to address limited funds, and creating a supportive environment to practice English despite mistakes. A multiliteracy approach is proposed involving activities to develop linguistic, sociolinguistic, strategic, and discourse competencies through exercises like reading, listening, speaking, writing, role playing, debates, and projects. Self-improvement is needed for both educators and learners to strengthen communicative skills.

    Reflect about the challenges we have in teaching communicative competence.

    How could you improve on the ways we teach English to our learners to achieve
    communicative competence.

    CHALLENGES POSSIBLE IMPROVEMENTS


    1. Diversity in/of (learning styles, and Educators must have development, they
    knowledge in technology need to generate new and various
    strategies in catering the learner’s needs.
    Flexible learning areas, collaborative
    activities/learning, and peer tutoring are
    also the other solutions that can help to
    address the diversity of the learners.
    2. Limited Resources Utilize the available online references, try
    to ask for educational donations from the
    government/organizations, try to create
    a local fund raising, and be creative by
    encouraging the learners to do a DIY
    educational materials that will not cost
    that much, but a help from the educators
    is needed too.
    3. Language Barriers First as an educator we must promote a
    positive learning environment in order to
    make the learners feel that it is okay for
    them to have mistakes as they practice
    the language. After creating that we can
    pair the learners who have a difficulty in
    English with their classmates who were
    bilingual or good in English, we
    probably need to have visual aids more
    for them to have an idea and practice in
    learning the language, we need to create
    group activities that will make the
    learners to interact with one another for
    them to learn each others language, for
    the last we especially need the
    engagement of their parents or family
    because they were the people who was
    with the learners always.

    4. Using multiliteracy approach, think about activities to teach each of the


    competencies below.

    Linguistic Competence
     Reading Activities - reading aloud and comprehension questions
     Listening Activities - listening to podcasts/videos, comprehension exercises
     Oral/Verbal Activities - Storytelling, Debate, Role Playing, Speech, Reporting
     Writing Activities - creating a journal, creative writing, peer-editing
    Grammar or word games and educational videos can also be used to the learners.

    Sociolinguistic Competence
     Role playing
     Dialect Studies
     Language analysis on medias
     Debate
     Various types or for of performance tasks/projects

    Strategic Competence
     Problem solving
     Role playing
     Speech
     Reporting
     Group/Collaborative Projects
    Discourse Competence
     Argumentive essays
     Speech analysis
     Group writing projects/tasks
     Peer reviewing
     Creating narratives/stories
     Role playing

    5. Write your reflection and conclusion.

    I learned that:
    We need to fully understand the things needed in teaching English and
    language because we need to help the learners to reach the communicative
    competence. With proper implementations and integration of approaches,
    components, keys, etc. the competences will be reached.

    I realized that:
    As a future educator, I must understand, learn, or master the things related to
    teaching English and language because I would be one of the educators who will
    create a strong and reliable foundation of knowledge for the learners.

    I think there is a need to:


    Have a self-improvement, it does not matter if you are an educator or learner
    because you cannot always rely on other people to be communicatively competent.
    You need to make an effort to learn more.
