What happens when language students make errors in the classroom? As a teacher, can you recognize the nature of that \u201cerror,\u201d and do you know when it\u2019s appropriate for students to self-correct or peer-correct versus when they need your help? The teacher\u2019s ability to determine whether a student has made a mistake, a slip, or an error directly affects how to correct it. Properly executing these techniques can ensure that students avoid anxiety in speaking and feel comfortable putting their language skills to practice!<\/p>\n
Join Bridge\u2019s expert panel to learn more about the different types of errors in learning English and strategies on how to correct them.<\/p>\n
