If you have ever been trained to teach English language, you probably heard of the teaching methodology called P-P-P (Present-Practice-Produce approach). This approach has been inplemented in the classrooms for a long time as it aws believed to be an effective methodology.
When using this approach, the lesson begins with presenting new language (e.g. new words) to students. At this stage, students are less active and the teacher does the most of the talking. Then, students start practicing by completing activities and tasks provided. This stage provide less guidelines to students but they do recieve feedback on pronunciation etc. At last, students are given a task where they are expected to produce the language fluently.
I tried this method myself in real classrooms and this didn't work. This was because it was unrealistic to expect students to learn so much and master it at the end of a single lesson. If you imagine learning a new language, do you think you would be able to master the use of new workds or functions of grammar associated with those words in only one lesson?
What's this? Use your imagination!

Hi
Very nice and intrestingss story.
This method is one of the best in terms of teaching a foreign language to adults. The aim is to select a limited amount of vocabulary and structures in order to maximise practice time. The aim is to "brain-wash" the students as much as possible during the lesson through lots of controlled and then freer practices. That is why it is important to select a small amount of words or expressions. The final part of the lesson is called "production" as opposed to a "task" (that's the TBA methodology). It is basically a free practice of all the elements learnt during the class. So if you teach something like "hotel booking" in the first part of the lesson you can teach all the words related to a room booking and work on certain grammatical structure. The production part could be a role play where the class is divided into receptionist and clients. It is one of the best methods for beginner students as it is more controlled and allows them to memorise and practice a lot the new language learnt. Hope this can help!
Hi I've been using this for quite long time and still work well, only we need to be creative in selecting the material we use. the effectiveness of the approach will be caused by the creativity in presenting the lesson. Please observe more classes using the approach.
