I have learned a brief overview about some of the various teaching methodologies and their positive and negative aspects. It has been shown that Jeremy Harmer developed the ESA method by combining what he saw as the best parts of a number of already established methodologies to create a more well-rounded method of teaching. I have learned that there are 3 main parts to an ESA lesson which can be implemented via 3 main structures; straight arrow, boomerang, and patchwork. It has been shown that it is important to keep a variety in the order of lesson structure to keep things interesting, especially for more advanced students. Furthermore, a breakdown of the types of activities suitable for each stage of a lesson has been covered. I feel like this compliments what was previously learned about teachers varying roles in the classroom. This is because it is useful to see what type of role a teacher will play at a particular stage of a lesson.
