This course allows the pre-service English teachers to explore the nature of macro skills and the theoretical bases, principles, and methods, and strategies in teaching and assessing listening, speaking, reading, writing, and viewing. It aims to provide various strategies for pre-lesson, during lesson, and post lesson in teaching language subjects. 


This course provides secondary school English teachers with information on teaching literature strategies. This exposure will allow them to witness firsthand the beauty and advantages of reading and sharing writers' works with young students.

The course engages learners in understanding the distinctions between and among four types of grammar: functional, descriptive, prescriptive, and pedagogic. Aside from the emphasis on how teaching and assessment vary considering the four types, the course also provides opportunities to discover the role of grammar in achieving communicative competence. Specifically, it allows them to demonstrate linguistic proficiency as an important factor in promoting their students’ literacy skills.
